This nasty little 1969 Ford Falcon is a high-impact horsepower factory that puts "power" in power-to-weight ratio. Without a lot of mass to push around, he built 302 under the hood is a massive over-achiever to make this neat little coupe a very dangerous adversary on the streets. The little Falcon gets big props for going all-in with the bright yellow paint job. If you squint just a bit, ou can definitely see signs of the first-generation Mustang in its sheetmetal, articularly from the rear view, ut the truth is that most folks will have a lot of questions about this car when they see it. Fortunately, t'll stand up to the scrutiny with shiny paint over decent bodywork that doesn't let you down. It's not perfect and it isn't a show car, ut for this kind of money it's more car than you'd ever dream of getting. Door fit is acceptable, he final cut and buff on the paint brought out a fantastic shine, nd with body-colored bumpers, t has a subtle, ustom look that really works. A lot of the original chrome and trim does remain in place, nd provides a nice contrast to the Chrome Yellow paint, ith items like the grille being in particularly good shape. Kudos to the builder for resisting the urge to add stripes, coops, nd spoilers, aking this neat Falcon a very purposeful-looking machine. The simple black bucket seat interior remains 100% business-oriented without losing its sense of style, ew seat covers front and back have a great late-60s look and the compact interior is actually quite comfortable. The instrument panel is a neat-looking symmetrical housing with a wide speedometer in the center and heater controls on the right (note that the heater core is bypassed but the fan works). You can really tell how focused on performance these guys were when they were putting this car together, s even the original AM radio is still in place. The carpets are probably a few years old and show some light fading, ut they're in good shape and I wouldn't worry about it. Auxiliary gauges under the dash monitor oil pressure, emperature, nd voltage and that shifter is linked to a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. No power-robbing options, o weight-adding accessories, ust a clean, o-nonsense interior that's ready to rumble. The robust 302 cubic inch V8 is a formidable performer anywhere it's installed, ut put it in a car with a curb weight of under 3000 pounds and you suddenly have a car with the power-to-weight ratio of a Cobra Jet Mustang. Topped by twin Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors and a matching intake manifold, hrottle response is RIGHT NOW and it has the most spectacular intake howl when you open all eight barrels. A lumpy camshaft gives it that hi-po idle and it pulls without seeming to run out of breath. And you can easily see that a lot of money went into the engine bay, hose satin black inner fenders and chrome dress-up parts, ot to mention the Ford Blue engine itself, ll look awesome. Long-tube headers feed a custom Flowmaster exhaust system with turn-downs just ahead of the rear axle, hich is a rugged 8-inch that won't sweat it when you nail the throttle. Flashy all black MB Wheels totally fit the part and wear 215/60R15 radials. This cool Falcon represents a ton of performance in a reasonably-sized package, ll at a very attractive price. Call today!
