70 and 71 FoMoCo intermediates were some of the company's best designs. Even the four door sedans had a sleek and stylish look.
@@danielulz1640 I totally agree. I love these years
It would seem this design was taking a page from GM intermediates. This design lived on in Australian Ford products.
It did indeed. The Ausie falcons are some of my favorites
Wow that tree didn’t want to give up!
@@ClassicCarRevivals we definitely earned that car! 😆
Wow that tree stump !!!!! Was a job but all worth it
@@user-vl1kp5wo8g I'm sure glad it's over 😆
Watching the these cars brings back a memory. As a young boy in southwest Iowa small town ,some folks that we where friends with. There mother had a garage kept one owner 69 four door falcon 6 cylinder auto. It was black and thinking it had about 20k on it. It was like new. Thank you for the content!
So glad you enjoyed it. That would be a cool ride to have now. Just simple and easy. No technology
I had a 1970 Torino with a 351 Cleveland in it. I bought it used back in 1980 was a low mileage car drove it from California to Idaho and back and across the country had it at least 5 years loaned it to my wife while I was working on her Granada. get a call it got totaled by a laundry truck. Loved that car. You sure do go the extra mile to get those cars out of wherever they are no matter how hard it is to get out. Thanks for the video
That's a shame about your car. It was a bunch of work to retrieve these, but I'm happy I did. Thanks for watching!
That dash cluster you found in the back seat is out of a Mustang fix body, if it has a 120 mile an hour speed gauge it's actually worth some money to the right person, but if you throw it away it is what it is thanks for the video
I gave it to my buddy, he sells parts. Thanks for watching!
Awesome show today, Bill 🙌 always enjoy your adventures and videos 📹 yeah get back onto the Mustang before the daughter loses interest, have fun 👍 till next time, Take care and stay Safe 🍻🍻🇦🇺🤝🇺🇲🦘🦘🌧🌧🏔🏔
Thank KC! Always glad to hear from you. How have you been?
@flatbrokegarage my pleasure Bill hanging in, appreciate the thought 💙🙏🤗👍🇦🇺🦘🏔🌧🍻
And we shall call her STUMPY! That was a lot of work
I love it! That's better than Tree-rino 😆
I’ve always heard that “there is nothing more expensive than a free car” but I guess “expensive” can equal time and “sweat” labor, not just cash? I’ll hand it to you, it takes some real tenacity to cut down trees and stumps to retrieve a old car. Especially in the summer heat! Not sure I still have that in me? But I haven’t been offered any free cars lately, either … so who knows? I think I would name the Falcon Virgil and the Torino … Woody! You definitely earned yourself a nice “free”, “tree” car score, there! Nice work and good save! Looking forward to what comes next with them.
Thanks! It was a workout for sure. I truly want to save the Falcon, I really like it and that name is perfect. For the Torino names I've gotten Tree-rion, and Stumpy, woody is right up there. Thanks for watching, more coming soon
That falcon is cool!
@@ClassicCarRevivals I'm definitely going to save this one. Possibly even get restored. Thanks for watching!
We refer to that style Klein bag as a nose bag over here. We run stuff up and down the poles in those on the end of a handline. Youll find all kinds of use for them, or Mrs Flatbroke might like it for gardening.. You guys worked hard for that rig! Nice job!
Wish you were down here to help
Good video!! Thanks and i will be watching.
Thanks! I'm going to try to get them both running. But 68 Mustang video before. Stay tuned
You all sure worked hard to get that one. My aunt and uncle had a white one back then, always liked the taillights and the front end.
Yep, they are cool. Thanks for watching!
Nice work getting your newest treasure loaded up and heading home.
We fought for this one
Great job Bill it rocks keep up the good work
Thanks!
Awesome save👍
Thanks 👍
I would like to see you do a video on getting this car cleaned up, and giving it a good going over. Considering car prices today,that one look like a keeper. Thank Bill.
@randyriggs5463 I have a follow up video on both coming soon
That tree didn't want to give up that Torino! Another fun video, Bill!
@@barberjeff67 it was a fight for sure
Good shape for the shape it's in.
Yeah, I hope I can get it to start.
Well it least you saved the most valuable of the 2 and now you have a good parts car for the other falcon you have plus you have such a good friend in Steve!
@@andrewbrubaker1366 Steve is the best guy ever. People like him are few and far between. I'm definitely saving the Falcon. Thanks for watching
I'd like to see that car cleaned up. I bet that's one sharp looking car all washed.
I do need to go through both of them and clean them up
Looking forward to it
Hello again. I enjoy your content and look forward to future videos about these cars.
I appreciate it! More coming soon
Looking great! Those quarters look real nice for what I need
We need to set a time to get you out here
@@flatbrokegarage absolutely!
That tree was crazy. I've seen him come out of the trunk. I've seen them come through the floorboards, but never like that.
Think I'm going to cut that tierod out and keep it as a trophy 😆
A beautiful project. Nice. I see so much opportunity with these cars. Looking forward to see what you are going to do with it
Thanks! Think this one might run. Fingers crossed
@@flatbrokegarage looking good for it yeah.
Thanks Bill, I enjoyed the video!!!
Thanks for watching!
It is a shame they let it sit so long. Now it keep a couple more on the road. Nice video
Thanks! I'm definitely keeping the Falcon. Think the torino may save the Falcon
Ingenious use of the pulley method.
Thanks, we couldn't have done it without it
The dash is from fox body mustang. If its not cracked, i recommend not throwing away. New subscriber here. Great job!
Yeah, we figured that out after a little looking. I gave it to my buddy Steve, he sells parts. Thanks for the sub!
Instrument cluster was out of a ford pickup 96 -2000. My dad at one time had a falcon like this😊 torino body . I believe it was a green 70 6 cylinder 3 on the tree
Good to know
Wow!! Job well done
Thanks!
You now have a good set of non smog heads. That looks like a 302.
Good video a lot of hard work that's a four-door I don't think I'd I'd save it that's just me good parts car thank you
Yep, worth more to me in parts for my other projects. I'm keeping all 4 doors for my Falcon, just in case.
It is interesting thats the only reason Im watching!
@jwfinley7808 well, I appreciate it. Helps me and the channel out.
Can't wait Bill
glad to see u save them cars I have a 71 Torino 500 I built a 351w into a 398w stroker and found a small block c6 for it runs real good was a 302 car I have engines for sale small block Ford engine if I or any one needs some good engines one 302 came out of my car it's been rebuilt not many miles on it at all
@@jerryburks2755 how much are you looking to get for it, and we're are you located? You can email me at flatbrokegaragetn@gmail.com
@@flatbrokegarage I'm in KY north of Elizabeth town KY what would you be wanting I have a couple of 302 ford's and a 351 I would sale where do I text u at what site
Skirt Dos 😂, that’s me all the time
"Let it go... let it go..." 😅
Kia Ora & Good Morning from Caribbean Drive, Unsworth Heights, North Shore, Auckland, New Zealand ... Another Great Video Bro.
Thank you, mate! Glad you enjoy them.
Pretty cool car! Wild how that tree grew through all that. Pretty amazing it turns over without doing anything to it!
Thanks! I was actually shocked it turned over, soon we will see it it runs
I read an article years ago about a red 70.5 two door Falcon that had the 429 SCJ in it. Apparently ultra rare. I think it was in Mustangs and Fast Fords. I might still have that magazine somewhere. Amazing you have found three 70.5s close to home.
It's crazy, I was amazed I found the 4 door, and now a 2 door V8 car. Super cool. There is a large Ford collector close by that has a 70.5 Super Cobra jet 428 with a shaker hood. Super rare indeed. Thanks for watching!
@@flatbrokegarage Whoa that’s sweet!! Was it red by chance?
@@sparksandgritgarage555 no, white and black. 1800 original miles
WOW! That’s the kind of weird stuff I like!
@sparksandgritgarage555 yep, I had a photo of it up a few months ago on my Facebook
Such a cool car
@1776_Garage I'm crazy about the Falcon I just snagged
@@flatbrokegarage it's cool
Just subscribed. Looks like a good couple of projects there with the Torino and the falcon
The falcon for sure, the torino has rust in bad places. If you look on my channel, I have a 4 door that's my daily driver. Thanks for subscribing, I truly appreciate it
Love. Your. Finds. Falcon. And. Torino. Thanks ❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
That dash and cluster is from a 91 to 93 foxbody mustang. And it's black do not throw it away. That cluster is also valuable due to its 140 mph. If you was closer to virginia I would buy it from you.
I gave it to my buddy, he sells parts
@flatbrokegarage well at least it has been saved also almost forgot that exhaust is from a foxbody also
@TheMustang01conv cool thanks
The exhaust is for a fox body mustang and brake parts
I say it will run just won't be easy but it's a shame it has all that rust because the body looks good and awesome glad to hear you two will be getting back to her crackstang I mean mustang lol I always call my brothers mustang that just to pick on him but yeah glad the tree finally let it go even though it didn't have a chance lol
I'm happy we got them out. At least the Falcon is worth saving. Thanks for watching!
That 140mph cluster is 300-400 bucks if good
Oh man...
89-90 mustang dash insert
The ol' green machine doesn't look too bad from this side of the camera lens, but I bet if you gave her a bath she'd soon show her dark side. I saw what you were pointing out about the cowl / firewall and yeah, the sub-frames don't look exactly solid (the rear one was definitely a bit moth-eaten) and if they look grotty on the outside after sitting in the dirt for 25+ years, you bet they aren't gonna be pretty on the inside.....and thin sub-frames aren't really a good thing, are they? Adding in the repairs to the doors, trunk lid, trunk floor, cabin floor, cowl, RF fender etc, let alone all the steering bits, brakes, bushes etc.... Yeah, it's sad, but the good bits on the beast will go to cars that otherwise wouldn't get back on the road, so I still consider that a win and a good use of resources. Man, if that engine fires and sounds good, there's another bonus too - especially if you then drop it in Drive and she tries to move. The cluster, the dash frame, seats, ancillaries, trim, grille, glass - all of it will be used, so good call, mate. I'll look forward to hearing it run before you take her apart too! All the best
It's definitely going to be a great parts car. Maybe even recoup some of my money, and get a set of extra doors for my 4 door Falcon. You never know, and they are getting hard to find
That dash is for a Foxbody mustang
You know your project has been abandoned a long time when you have to partake in a bit of deforestation to get it out of its place of slumber.
😆 the struggle is real 😆
At the do i see a shoebox Ford to the left of the screen 😮😊❤
Yes, 1950 2 door. He has 3 of them. Cool cars. I had a 55 at one time
@@flatbrokegarage sweet, yes they are, I'd love 1 👍🇦🇺🤝🇺🇲🍻🏔🌧
@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS come on over mate. I'll get ya a deal
@@flatbrokegarage 🤣😂🤣 I'll start walking 🚶♂️ c u next century 😂👍
@@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS 😆
Fixed the car don't part it out the car wants to live It's too nice and complete to just part out A couple days of cleaning it up and I'm sure you'll change your mind A car detailer would love to clean that car
Next video I'll have up, I'll show the rust. It's all structural, not good
Use badlands winches. They don't overheat👍
This one belongs to my buddy. I was not very impressed
1989 Ford Mustang dash. Should have removed the rear under bumper panel before taking it off the flatbed.
Boy, you got that right, I really messed up on that one.
Put a big block in it and take it to the drag strip!
@Rusty_Dents I'm afraid it would brake in half 😆
@@flatbrokegarage Some 2X3 tubing, an 8 pt roll bar, and a set of Caltracs, and you'd have a whole new group of subscribers
@Rusty_Dents it's a thought, however I'm keeping the Sunbird for that in the future. Possibly Ziptie drags
I think it's got potential with a little hard work
Little more than I want at the moment 😆
Bill I can definitely understand that, excited to see the will it run video. Keep up the good work
87-93 mustang dash
The speedo and small dash possibly S10
@MoeLarrycurly1 that's a possibility, I have them to my buddy, he sells parts
Dash for a S-10 Chevy/ the first one you pulled out
Oh, cool! Good to know, thanks. I just gave all of it to my buddy. He sells parts. Thanks for watching
Let me know when !!’
@@marklevine-es2br very soon
Whatc ou for the no necks and rats the scenery reminds me of my home Alabama
All kinds of creepy crawlies in there. I'm only 100 miles from Alabama, so that may be why.
@@flatbrokegarage ok my dad the rest of the family most is passed away we left 1967 then moved to Cincinnati Ohio and Detroit Michigan
Sell the falcon to sleeperdude he loves them
@francissimpson7970 I do own 2 😆 there are actually about 12 to 15 of them at my buddy Steve's yard. They are the early body style. I think he likes those more
No 428, 429 instead.
Too little content for almost 40 minutes... 😢 This will be 80 episodes before that car is done...
That dash is out of an 87 to 93 mustang
Yeah, we finally figured that out. I gave it to my buddy, he sells parts
Fox body tail pipes.
Cool, thanks
Take the drive train out scrap the rest imho or just scrap the whole thing.?
I've already had guys asking for parts. Maybe it can save a few more cars out there
yep those one off cars lets say nice things hard find parts my self keep it cheap orignial near to lot people its memorys
to me like old huant house lots bad lots good factory stuff back seat black light built sheet oh joys of knowing and not knowing if walls could talk it is what is often i prefer stay in car vs room for lot same reasons season of sweat and knowing bugs snakes insects beside human aspect
It would be cool if I could find the build sheet. Thanks for watching!
Howdy sir
@1776_Garage hello!
@@flatbrokegarage how ya doin
@@1776_Garage hot... it's been wicked here lately
@@flatbrokegarage how's that
@@1776_Garage was 99 at 7:00 last night. I want to work in the shop, but it's just no fun with this heat. I need AC 😆
Need a high lift a handy man
@@jwfinley7808 I'd take any help I could get
It’s too bad it wasn’t a 2 door model. Back in the day I saw one with a 429 that could get up and go. Is this worth saving I’d say not. At best a good parts car! Too much rust! I parked my jeep several years ago whether on gravel or ground and the vehicle rusted very quickly. If you’re going to park a vehicle keep it on asphalt or concrete or double tarp on a slant; and cover it. Also put moth balls around it because mice and rodents do havoc on vehicles especially in barns. Just my opinion.
In the first video I saved a nice 2 door Falcon. I think it's a keeper
Fox body 90-93
Thanks
Try using actual penatrating oil. It works 100 times better.
I'll definitely try it on the next one
Drop the V8 driveline in the good body.
Hope to get it running this weekend
That is a full frame car not a unibody
This year, they are unibody, I've actually owned and repaired may of them. Definitely, the weak point. You can see me repair my floors and unibody on my Torino video's
Too much talk boring
Thanks for watching, being bored, and taking the extra time to comment. I appreciate it
