My 1964 Falcon Hardtop

Hello folks!  I am setting up this web site to chronicle the rebirth of my 1964 Ford Falcon Futura.  I obtained this badly abused bird in February of 2005.  First problem, I am an early Nova man.  I know zip about Falcons.  But a lot of systems are similar.  I know this may offend both Ford and Chevy guys alike but under the skin a Falcon and a Nova are basically the same.  So I decided to give this battered bird a home.

It didn't come home willingly.  It took a 4x4 truck to drag it up onto the trailer.  The first time it started it certainly sounded like a monster!  Here you see the beast as it arrived at its new nest.  At first it seemed like a great deal.  But the surprises were yet to come!!!  This project was going to take a lot more time and money that I thought.

Update:  You've heard the old saying "the best laid plans of mice and men"?  It's very true as I have found out.  Like most things in my life this car is not going to turn out as I hoped.  Life has thrown extra expenses my way that takes funds away from my project.  It is being toned down to make a much smaller budget.
