Come on, you know you want to.
Last Call- The Falcon is the Showman
About

Guilty. I want to. Oh, how everything about that car would suit me.
And yet… that Cougar behind is also quite tantalizing. This could be interesting. -
That Falcon Sprint raced at the 2008 Sebring Trans Am race, some how grandfathered (grandson'd?) into Trans Am spec.

It actually ran in TA (among other places) back in 1966.

HA! I heard a much different and highly dubious story on its entry.
Your's is much more believable…

How I would beat that car like a redheaded step child.
-
Damn you, now you got me fantasizing about that car and redheads…
-
I blame him as well.
-
As long as the redheads aren't your stepchildren, it's all good.
I would totally adopt that car as my own, though.

And while we're talking about unlikely Trans Am-type Falcons, this guy's batshit crazy too…

God damn!

Okay, now I want a Falcon.
-
This car comes close, very close, to automotive perfection. I'd like to get rid of the stickers and ship it over to Europe and blast it up and down the Autobahn and -strada, hoon it all over the Alps. Show them what real class looks like. Looks like this.
-
+1 on Alpine hooning in a sweet competition prepped Ford. In many ways, this would be cooler to take over there than a Lotus Cortina.javascript:%20postComment(1);

I actually know what it's like to drive in the Alps. I was stationed in Italy while in the Army, and spanked a '65 Malibu SS all over the Italian Alps. Unfortunately, it only had a two barrel 283 and the shitty 2 speed Powerglide, but man, what roads. I dreamed of that Malibu being set up like this Falcon. Loved the car, hated the Powerglide. Loved the experience of driving those roads even more. Should have bought an Alfa or Fiat or something European while I was there, but I'm a butthead and just had to have that Chevelle.
-
I think I've seen this very car in action. A couple of years ago, there was a black Falcon Sprint in the Trans-Am class at the Wine Country Classics at Sears Point Raceway. It was a cool car, but the coolest part was that the owner/driver drove it to the track.
From Los Angeles. -
Oh.
Hell.
Yes.
That is all. -
That car is delicious.
-
After watching Love the Beast I started dreaming of competition-prepped Falcons. This is not helping.
I love how they sit in race trim. Almost like they were meant to wear those big Goodyears and not the little 7" tires that it would normally wear. The bumper delete and auxiliary headlights are awesome. This car has presence. -
I think I saw the J Walker #5 Falcon at the Perterson Museum a few months ago…same one?
-
*drool* jaw drop . What it must sound like. Yes I want to. More than my wife will understand.
-
I keep coming back to gaze at this pic. This as got to be one of the sexiest Fords ever created. It's inspirational.
