Vehicle Detail
1963 Falcon Futura Hardtop. Its the rare Hardtop model and a very solid driver that looks really nice. Paint is in pretty good shape even close up. It has the 170 with the 2 speed auto tranny. The car came from the Sandhills area of NC so it has pretty much no rust. Just a little surface underneath and a little on top of the passenger floor pan where it looks like the windshield leaked some. No rust through anywhere I can find. Look at the underneath pictures. Solid as a rock. Someone bumped me in the parking lot on the drivers side. It isn't bad at all but I added pictures so their are no surprises when you get it. It has the 170 and it runs well. I will ad that when I got it it had 3- 1 barrel carbs on it but only the middle carb was working, the other two were huge vacuum leaks so I pulled off the old eldebrock intake and put it back to 1 carb. It still has the holes in the intake runner for the other carbs if you wanted to go that route. I fabbed up plates and epoxied them in place to cover the holes for now. I have driven it about 3,000 miles like that with no problems. Just want to be honest about what you're getting. Car runs real well. Has electronic ignition. Has coil overs in the front so it can be raised and lowered and lowering blocks in the rear. Car drives down the road really well. It has the scarebird front disk brake conversion on it. The mastercylinder seeps some so you will want to change it. I was going to convert to a dual bowl but I have a newborn and too many projects to get to it right now. Brakes stop great. Trunk is painted the original color with original trunk mat and is as solid as a rock. This really is a fantastic car. It kills me to get rid of it because I spent a long time looking for a hardtop this solid but I ran across a sprint hardtop that is almost as solid so this one has to go now. I drove it 4 hours from where I used to live in Raleigh with no problems but it is an old car so I would recommend trailering it if you have the means. The interior is in pretty decent condition. The dash and doors are painted nicely. The upholstery is original and looks OK but I was going to replace it. The passenger door panel is shot and the headliner has a couple seams separating. The front seat is decent but the back has a split on top. I do however have all new door panels for it just not installed. It has new felt on all windows except the quarters. I have them. Just not installed. It also has new rail seals. All the glass is good. No Cracks and just just a little fog starting on the bottom of the windshield. It's not letting me add all my pictures so I will add more asap. If you have questions you can email, call or text me anytime. I work third so if you don't get an answer right away I will contact you asap. This really is a fantastic car. Great driver. My number is 828 817 4174 and my name is Jeremy. Low reserve and reasonable buy it now. You can use PayPal to pay the entire balance if you're willing to add 2% for the fees they charge me. They charge 3% but I'll kick in 1% for the convenience. There needs to be a $500 deposit paid within 24 hours and the balance within 7 days. We are buying a house so we can both be home more with our newborn so please don't bid unless you have the money and intend to follow through. I'll work with any shipper if you need it shipped. Also, it has no aircleaner in the pictures because I accidently ran over the side of it when i was working on it. Typical for me. I have the base and element if you want them. I figured I would let the buyer choose the new one. It hasnt been ran without the filter other than to warm it up in the driveway. If you want more pictures I can text them to you. I have more on my phone or can take specific ones for you. Car also has a split header with dual exhaust.
