    Less than five seconds 0 to 60 mph. Congrats for the good driving, not tearing or slippering the rear wheels. You really love and treat your Falcon like a king or a queen, not mistreating it.

    This is a true build, and absolutely impressive. I saw one of these in project stage earlier today. Never knew this car existed, but as soon as my eyes saw it, I knew it was a new favorite. What a shame that aftermarket support is not there

    Thanks for watching. This was almost 5 years ago. On my channel, you'll see that we went on to put in a new motor that we talked about in the video and upgraded the suspension again to Detroit Speed suspension. I'm used to not having the support by now, unfortunately. Thanks for watching!

    Very good work young man! I just bought a 68 Falcon with a 200 inline 6 in it that I'm gonna "fix up" into a daily driver. I'm going to pull the engine and Trans and rebuild them and pretty up the engine bay while I'm doing that. It's currently Silver with red interior and the interior is such good shape except the dash pad so I'm thinking I'm just going to redo the dash myself and dye the rest of the interior Tan or Camel Brown so I can change the color of the car because I absolutely HATE silver and the car needs to body worked and painted anyway, as far as paint goes I'm going to buy 3 quarts of AC Orange and 1 quart of Fiat Brown Tractor Paint and mix it together to create a custom Burnt Orange, I know I know.... Tractor paint? Yes Tractor paint, it's ALOT cheaper than regular Auto paint and it ALOT more durable than regular Auto paint, and I'm not building a 500 point restoration, I'm building a cool car that I can daily drive yet be legit enough take to a Cruise-in, Cars and Coffee or local car show on the weekend.

What's the expression? "She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid." As I recall, that line was describing another kind of Falcon. Brakes sucked bigtime, tho. Even after the Granada swap.
