61 Falcon
opa1:
After selling my FED, I needed something to keep me busy. I bought this a few months ago. I intend to build a street legal ride with a mild SBC. Going to keep it very simple and use what old parts I have in the shop. Some will be period correct and some won't.
I found a 8.5 posi rear with 3.42 gears so I used it. Installed with Competition Engineering slapper bars and fresh shocks. Still lots to do.
Working on front now.
I'm guessing no one is allowed to post to this thread. Not sure what happened. :(
THE FRENCHTOWN FLYER:
Nice.
I like Falcons.
Mine '64 Sprint had a 240 ci six. Ran 13s.
opa1:
This one would of had a 144 or 170 six in it. I just bought the body. It is light. I'll have to put quite a bit of bracing in the subframe area. If this one runs in the 12's I'll be happy with that. Just wanna have fun.
Roger:
Fun. That's what it's all about!
Paul New:
Cool project I remember as a kid there was a little yellow Falcon that would come to the track with a 4 speed and launch with the front wheels sky high and would go through the traps in the 12’s wasn’t the quickest car but fun to watch
