DESCRIPTION
1964 Ford Falcon Futura Convertible
For consignment, a 1964 Ford Falcon Futura convertible showing 32,221 miles, but the true miles are unknown due to a PA title exemption. This car was assembled in Lorain, Ohio, delivered to the Philadelphia District Sales Office, and found by our consignor in the Lehigh Valley.
Exterior
A rocket inspired spear tracks the side of the car in Wimbledon White trimmed by stainless and enhanced by some back end chevron shaped ornamentation, all a nice complement to the white canvas soft top. The rest of the car wears single state Skylight Blue, an appropriate paint name for a convertible. Simple features such as single headlights and an artful but uncomplicated grille set the trends for the time while careful attention is given to Ford\'s ubiquitous round tail lights, stamped stainless latch panel trim, and laser straight chrome bumper out back. 14-inch wheels carry proper covers and 185/70R14 tires with an early 2023 date code. Fender Falcon call outs share in the artful yet simple 60\'s style. Imperfections here include some pitted and oxidized metal trim, stains and inclusions in the paint, chips throughout, surface rust including spots on the bumper, a missing \"C\" from the decklid, remnant hole from previous side mirror, and bubbling in numerous places.
Interior
Heavy patina greets us on the blue driver\'s door panel with fading, tears, and general age, evident but less prominent on the passenger door. Two tone blue vinyl covers the split bench in front and the rear bench showing age with again the most evident on the driver\'s seat. The steering wheel wears an aftermarket cover and fronts the vintage dashboard, horizontal speedometer and aged ivory trim. Condition is consistent across the dash which holds an AM radio with an Audiovox unit and backup camera screen under the dash not far from the original vent levers. Blue carpet covers the floor and a remnant carpet piece covers the trunk floor through which a clean gas tank is noted.
Drivetrain
Patina laden, driver quality andoriginal looking is the 170ci inline six under the hood. It has a 1-barrel carburetor and is rated at 101 horsepower. It\'s mated to a Ford-O-Matic 2-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the Ford 7.25\" rear with 3.50 gears.
Undercarriage
Other than the new gas tank, we\'re looking at driver quality conditions underneath as well, with surface rust, oil present, rust on the inner rocker and body brace, advanced surface rust on the door bottoms, and some frame patchwork above a rear wheel. A single exhaust runs through a stock style muffler and drum brakes, which according to our consignor have rebuilt wheel cylinders and upgraded master, are on all four wheels. Suspension consists of coil springs in front and leaf springs in back.
Drive-Ability
The straight six starts, idles and runs well and while you won\'t win any drag races with it as is, it will undoubtedly get you to the car show and back. Fresh tires mean straight tracking and good handling and the brakes work on demand. What\'s not working includes the heater blower, tail lights, brake lights, and reverse lights. All other functions on this survivor operate as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
The Futura was an upgraded trim level and with this example, you have a diamond in the rough with good bones and a popular body style that saw just over 300,000 produced in 1964. The sky\'s the limit with this Skylight Blue convertible, and you can keep its original color or envision a rocket of a different hue!
