Hello all.. been lurking for a while always loved the falcons.. was a Buick guy for a long time but since i sold my Grand National i have been looking for something to play with... I bought this falcon from my Boss's son a couple of weeks ago.. I love the 66's they look like a mustang, a chevelle and a Cuda had three way sex and they were what came out of it..

My car has 33,000 original miles. It was my boss's aunts car and it is 100% original with exception of the Candy ford blue paint. here are a few pics..

original Interior

My kids.

Welcome to the show! Glad you got a Ford under your hat for a while!

This place rocks and that Falcon looks great!

Very nice big bird. Sucker looks like it just rolled off the assembly line, but better.

Hello to the NFG! Nice blue - and I'm not a blue guy. Welcome. Oh, and you'd better finish your name before someone adds to it on their own. Like, Sofa King Fast, or Sofa King Cool, to avoid stuff like Sofa King We Todd Did.

Very nice Falcon, and yes welcome and don't let FE run you off, LOL. BTW that looks like FE blue.

Are you ready to rumble, if so get on over to the tech board and the guys will teach you how to make that thing go fast.

Blatant thread hijack - your new signature line reminds me of an edgy joke (clear the kids away from the screen unless you want to explain this one to them...).

Tommy is out doing his morning chores on the farm, but is having a bad morning, and takes it out on the animals. Chasing the chickens, smacking the pigs rear-ends and throwing rocks at the cows. Little does he know Momma sees all this from the kitchen window.

So he goes inside for breakfast and Momma puts a bowl of dry cereal in front of him. "What? No eggs and bacon? Not even milk for my cereal?"
"No, Tommy, you chased the chickens that lay our eggs, smacked the pigs that give us bacon and threw rocks at the cows that produce our milk. Let this be a lesson to you."

About this time, Pops comes down to the kitchen in a foul mood and kicks the cat. A long silence falls over the kitchen. Tommy looks at Momma and says "Well, are you going to tell him, or should I?"

that is a good one,,, lol

The car is candy ford blue... I am thinking of putting some bright metalic SS style stripes on it... what do you think? I am going to put a v8 in it over the winter... just not sure what... a 428 is REAL tempting.. then again.. a stroked 302 would be just as cool.. and easier to change plugs in...

decisions decisions..

You planning on melting the inner fender wells while you try to fit that big sucker in? I was thinking that a bored 289 with a few extra goodies to spice it up would be great in the car and there should still be plenty of room to get to the spark plugs.

Nice car! Not much to do to her except sprucing her up and some make her go faster gadgets!
