I wish I had the documentation and stash of parts I got when we picked it up.
She runs extremely well for a 60 year old car. It was never intended to have this kind of life span.
It only weighted 2380#.
(The 1960 Falcon was powered by a small, lightweight 95 hp (70 kW), 144 CID (2.4 L) Mileage Maker straight-6.) I had intentions of building a hot rod, but when my Dad saw it and its condition, that was off the table.

Are those Yamaha 200s in the background. I like the falcon. Brings back memories. The old slip and slide 2 speed Auto manual choke. Millennials would not know what to do with a car like to 0 to 60 in about 30 second
