. This is a 1963 Ford Falcon Sprint that has been completely rebuilt into a real beauty. The owner is a buddy I used to work with and he asked me to list because he has purchased another project that he has wanted for a long time. The Falcon's body was stripped down to metal and repainted by a professional shop about a year ago. The bumpers were chromed, trim polished or replaced with new trim. Body is straight and solid - I didn't find a ding anywhere. The interior has been redone and still has the original Falcon Sprint steering wheel ring and console. The interior has been updated with additional gauges and Vintage Air with heat and defrost. The chassis has been redone with a rebuilt steering box, aftermarket disc brake kit on front, large drum brakes on the Maverick 8-inch rear with 3:50 gears. Engine is a rebuilt 1966 289 with mild performance cam and kit, Edelbrock carburetor and intake, aluminum valve covers, electronic ignition and it was been rewired and an alternator added. Power from the engine goes to a Tremec 5-speed and hydraulic clutch setup. Transmission has a Hurst shifter. Car runs, drives very well and is ready to enjoy - and is ready for a new owner to love it - only has about 1000 miles on it since rebuilt.
