    That car is beautiful. The Patina is MINT. But, lets be real, its just a solid body. No frame, no floors, no drivetrain, no brakes, steering issues, shocks will need replacing, no wiring, gas tank is probably junk. With the amount of projects you already got, this is a seller. Maybe throw some plywood floors, a running engine of any sort and a boat tank just to make it easier to move and sell. But that is still a lot of work. Tractor proving its worth already is good. Its the cold season, yall stay warm.

    To me, your newest Falcon is the best body style ever made. That car would be in high demand if you repaired it and made it a street rod. That’s a super popular body. It looks more aggressive than your earlier body style to me. It looks more like a muscle car in my mind. But that’s why everyone’s allowed to have their own opinions! Great video guys. As always.

    Falcon was not a race car but the product of someone working min wage doing what they could a little at a time. They had a vision and a dream, working with used parts from friends and anybody that would donate the stuff they had left from upgrading their own car. I did the same with mine. It wasn't what I always wanted but every little bit helped along. 90% was the look and the rest was bad decisions mixed with mismatched parts. And yes it was awesome!! Could be wrong but even with a 6 cyl and a original column shifted 3 speed moved to the floor would have have had a permanent smile on my face. Would have banged the gears like I was racing Grumpy Jenkins at every red light.

    As far as this old man can remember, they went from a 260 cid V8 engine in '64 to 289 cid in '65. You could get four speed manual or three speed automatic. Either two or four barrel carburetors. Of course, a six cylinder was also available. Basically same choices as Mustangs. The Sprint convertibles are the most desirables.

      Actually the other way around the Mustang had the same choices as the Falcon seeing as the Mustang was built on the Falcon platform, now having said that Josh you’re right you can’t keep the all, this one deserves a full restoration and a spot in the fleet though, she is a beauty. What’s nice about this one is it’s a factory manual car, so you could drop that 302 with a 4 speed gear box in it and drive the heck out of it.

    I'd love to make a suggestion about cleaning these super moldy/mildewy cars.
    You can purchase high concentrations of bleach, like pool shock. Dilute to 2 or 3 percent with water. Apply and allow to soak for a few minutes. You'll see the mold and dirt just melt off. Then use the pressure washer to finish the job.
    Also, and extremely important. Please be careful mixing bleach with dish soap. There's usually a warning. For suds, use laundry soap or some kind of car wash surfactant.

You could use that other tractor to pull the Falcon ,save you and your children's back. Weld a push thingy on the front of that little tractor. it's got enough oomph to push a small car. Put that Big and little tractor to work,make them earn their keep. Use your head more and less of your back. Take from one who knows. I am 66 yrs. old,shouldn't listen to my daddy more.

    In 1963, all Falcons came with the four lug wheels and tires... In 1964 and 1965, the Sprint Futura's all came with a V8 and five lug wheels and tires... If I were still a younger man, I would try and get this one off of you... I used to collect Falcons (Econolines and Rancheroes too) and I have owned them all except this bodystyle and the Sprint Futura convertable... But I am no longer able to crawl around under one the way you would need to if you wanted to fix this one up right... She would make a great daily driver for someone with a smallblock, nine inch, and new front suspension though... You are a lucky man!

    josh and tosh you guys have such an awesome family! I love seeing a family do stuff like this together and seeing kids happy to be spending time working on cars together. I wish I could've done this with my dad but he left when I was young. I love seeing a happy family spend time together and having the kids get interested in the automotive hobby! Especially with wawa and squeezy we need more women in car culture! I love seeing women who actually like cars and learning and working on them is really cool to see! keep up the awesome work guys!

    When we were teenagers in the late 70's, my buddy got one of these and spent a ton of time and paper-route money fixing it up - it was really nice. He eventually sold it and six months later he was coming down a hill that overlooks a junkyard and saw it inside. The whole front end was folded up.

    There's something just satisfying about watching kids clean a car and then having fun doing so. As a parent you got to be proud when they just jump in and get to see that transformation knowing they brought it back from a very neglected state. This is a good looking car and will make a fun toy for you all to enjoy. Looking forward to seeing what your plans are for this one keep up the good work you guys.

    I had a 64 Fairlane 500 custom sport coupe with the original 289 in it. It still had most of the trim including the gold 289 badges. They turned Alot of them into Thunder bolts ⚡. I still kick myself for selling that car. I love the channel and the family dynamic! Someone would buy that car in a heartbeat and you should be able to get a pretty penny for it.😁

    If I'm not mistaken that is a 64 1/2 falcon. Back when I was young my older stepbrother in those days had one just like it. He had a 351w with a nice cam ported heads a 750 double pumper with headers and it was fast. It rolled out the driveway one night and hit a tree with the trunk getting smashed up. It got sold after good memories

    A few guys in my HS auto shop class had these. These "compact" cars with the small V8's were very desirable, especially with a four speed.
    I really like the slotted mags. They were really popular back then.

  • @bernardcrane750
    @bernardcrane750 11 місяців тому

    Josh, I believe that is a "64 Futura. What identifies the difference between a "64 and "65 are the side trim, front grill and gas cap. All are different between the two years. Four lugs indicate six cylinder. My mom had a "65 Futura when I was in high school. Two door sedan with 289, quick car for that era. Still my favorite Falcon.
