Falcon was a great car. My wife dad worked at ford and was a mechanic and at the time they had a for school. Well, it was fun. Her sister got a Falcon one that was blue, and I think it was a 64. I at one time loved working on cars. I give my 86 Corvette show car to my grandson. 2 years ago.

Your commitment to exterior drive shots is impressive. Also, cool car. My brother had a 1963 Falcon wagon as a teen that my dad (and us kids "helping") did our first engine rebuild on. After about two miles, it was also our second engine rebuild, with important lessons learned!

A three inch exhaust pipe is way to big for that little six. You will lose most of your torque. Two inch would be plenty.

@@jeromebreeding3302 Yes, too small is often bad, but the myth that too large reduces all back pressure and the myth that "engines like a little back pressure" is specifically what I'm referring to. What engines can benefit from is exhaust scavenging, which is enhanced typically by long tube headers in aftermarket applications but has really become an elevated science lately in the variable design in some factory turbocharged engines where alternate cylinder path pulsing evacuates combustion and also accelerates turbine speed. But all other things being equal, I'm not aware of any data that shows too large of an exhaust diameter will reduce torque (not referring to running with no headers or manifolds at all, of course, which poses other concerns).

What great memories. First car I learned to drive. straight 6 with 3 on the tree. Pretty peppy. steering wheel did wander and before I was old enough to drive I didn't understand why my dad couldn't keep the steering wheel level. LOL I learned why once I started driviing it. Great show!!! so envious. as an only child I have no concept of the life lessons your kids are learning. So much fun to see them growing up and the relationship between you and the wife. Great road trip with the Zephyr.

I bought a '61 Falcon in 1975. It had 54,000 miles on it. Had a 140 inline six and a three on the tree. It got 23 MPGs as I drove it back and forth to work. Loved it ! So did my sister. She bought it from me. I'll bet that if you drain the oil and refill with Lucas/STP and a little heavier-grade oil the pressure will come up.

I"m 66 now and when I was a teen, back in the early 70's, my buddy had this same car. It was a nice car but very weak. It didn't have any power at all. It always got us to where we were going but we couldn't outrun anyone. Brings back memories.

Dicker was a term used for bargaining or negotiating, no dicker prices, means no negotiations required. This car sounded like my 1976 Gremlin 232 inline six, think it was a 232.

Best, easiest rust remover...50% white vinegar/water mix. Let soak 2 to 3 days, shaking or stirring several times a day. Sand or bb's also help in the mix for deep rust. It will just fall off. leaving steel and paint untouched and shiny clean. Just wash off with mild soap and water to remove the acid from the vinegar. It really works, is cheap and leaves metal shiny clean, ready for whatever you want next. You will be amazed!
