I enjoyed reading about your Falcon... I've liked 'em almost 60yrs. Lots of work in yours and it looks great. My favorite Aunt n' Uncle in Atlanta had a red '63-1/2 w/red interior when they first came out with that roofline. Unexciting 6cyl/auto.
Wondered if you'd ever seen this GT-1 '63 Falcon. I've seen it run at Daytona a couple of times at HSR/SVRA historic races. Makes a neat race car .... BADASS FAST.... blast through a whole field of vintage racing Porsche's from the back of the pack to the front.

You mentioned a wagon... friend of mine just finished this 2dr. resto. Apparently the 2dr. is pretty rare. There's a '64 sedan delivery I see around Titusville Fl. also.

Very cool! I want a 4-door wagon somethin’ fierce!

I finally got the front suspension finalized and the Mike Meaer strut tower brace. Hard to believe how much better the car handles now. The stock seats SUCK now, as I slide all over the damn place 😂
