    I was around in 63 and they didn't look that good from the factory. The paint job on this jewel cost more that a new Falcon did in 1963. I love it !!!

    Started to cry. My first car was in 1967 I bought a 64 Falcon for $400.
    170 Special, 3 speed on the column. Bench seat. I loved that car. Paint was showing primer on hood and roof but I kept it shining. Got it up to 90 mph one time on a long stretch. May have had a tail wind. Loved that car.
    This little 63 is a piece of fabulous work. Took me back over 50 years.
    Wow. What a sweet heart.

      It was a good motor but I think the 289 is on the throne of ‘best’ if we take it based on how long they’ll last and how much voracious abuse they’ll tolerate. 351W was a fast little go getter though. I blew up a couple of these, my old 289s are probably still running somewhere. Never blew a 289.
