This is a 1963 Ford Falcon Futura convertible, car is 99% original. interior is original, or restored original. car still has the original keys from 1963, no rust on car.
all interior/ ext. light work, horn works, not missing anything anywhere.
I was told by previous owner car has been repainted, was repainted the factory color. paint on trunk lid is original and matches car perfectly.
I believe the 57k miles to be authentic mileage based on condition of the vehicle. you wont find this car again unless you have a time machine.
the only modification I know of is the car was converted to floor shift due to the column shift parts being obsolete. still have all the original column shift parts if you wanted to go back to all original. pictures were taken before floor shift was installed
interior is a 10+ to be 50 years old. power top works, top is in good shape, 2 tears on the inside of the top, not in the top but in the actual fabric underneath the top.
dash pad is near perfect.
a cd player was installed, under dash, left the AM radio in it and did not mess with the wiring.
it is a 3 speed with 170 inline 6. fires up as soon as you turn the key and drives in a straight line even when you let go of the wheel.
it is a real time capsule.
the rear window on the passenger side needs to be realigned, it comes off track from time to time and needs assistance.
I would have no problem driving anywhere.
you can call with questions or email me

On Mar-06-13 at 15:41:55 PST, seller added the following information:It has been brought to my attention that the seat covers are not the original fabric. The guy says they did not have cloth inserts in 1963. they are in really good shape however. I just want to make sure all details I give are accurate. This car has had restorations on it over the years to keep up appearances but the majority of this car is original.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery
Sun, 08 Jun 2014After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
