Ford falcon running after 25 years parked sitting 

Thank yoh

That’s great

Thanks

Call me crazy but maybe don’t buy from rock auto anymore, i to had problems with them and no longer deal with them

I bet that was fun

Great cars! I’ve got an original sprint. Bought new by my grandpa. Check my Chanel

@@rdspeedfab GREAT JOB, My Boi!

Those 289 hipos are great fast runners I've built 2 over the years n smoked a lot of camaros and firebird lol

Thank you I appreciate it thanks for watching

I was about to bight nails when you wouldn't give it any throttle at first and it was wanting to run at least you're doing it but good Lord ⚡🤐 it didn't need a coil because you wouldn't properly diagnose it at first at least you're doing it carry on next time remember 👁️

Yes I love them

I love them too and yes at 289 would be nice

Thank you very much. I try to keep it interesting

I bet it was really fun with a V-8

Bad vibration coming from, it seems, the u-joints or the rear-end. You are lucky that 2-speed trans is air cooled, as hardly any fluid registered on the dip-stick. Keep at it and you'll have a sweet little car, that will get 25-30 mpg.

I really like them to. I have been wanting one for years my plan right now is to restore it

@@Sleeperdude it would be a great video project having us follow your progress on restoring that little '63. We would get to watch the progress from start to finish.

Back in the day we called them Compact Cars. Huge compared to the cars now. I had a 1960 and a 64. Great cars.

That’s cool

Black with red interior always makes for a beautiful classic car.

I agree

Oh thats not opinion thats a fact.

@@hiesenburg669 All front engine/rear drive cars are way easier to work on.

When these cars were built, most men did their own maintenance. So they were designed to be easy to work on with simple tools. A car dealership makes most of their money on service now a days. So new cars are built to only be worked by specialists, with specialist tools.

@@bigsteve8408 true

That’s right!!

That’s a neat story

I love them too, thanks

That’s funny

ciertamente lo es, yo siemrpe quise uno, mi vecino tenia 2 y uno lo puse en venta pero para esa epoca no trabajaba todavia y bueno, aunque eran los de 4 puertas, tambien el que me gusta mucho es el ford taunos gt

Ditto....

Aguante el FALCON!!! El clásico Argentino

It’s the best

Thank you I appreciate it

Thanks

That’s cool thank you

That’s awesome

Thanks

Yeah I love it

Thanks

Thank you we really appreciate it

I’m glad you liked it hope you’re week gets better

Thanks man

Thanks

No problem thanks

Everyone needs to start a car by popping the clutch down a hill in there lifetime

@@Sleeperdude Wives and girlfriends have it easy nowadays. Few cars today have manual shift transmissions which means no longer are they needed to help push start the family auto!

Right

Thank you

Wow that’s neat thanks for the information

Thank you

Thank you so much

That’s funny thank you

@@Sleeperdude you are right but what's more funny people were thinking we were brothers. Me and my best friend ( Billy ) we grew up with each other since we were like 5 years old & we both play around the neighborhood barefooted 👣 together because for #1. We were all the time barefooted 👣 #2. We both have wide feet except mines were a little bit more wider & my toes were a lil bit big than Billy's , & I was a little bit more taller. Because me & Billy would play any type of sports Barefooted 👣 they kept saying we were brothers. We kept saying we are just real real good friends but they said we were lying we were brothers. He's been a really good brother to me. When I was 18 years old & my foot out-grow shoes and socks I don't know why but I got very disappointed for somebody who did not like wearing shoes at the time. But he helped me pull through this to live my life. To this Billy now call me ( BIGFOOT ) & i call him ( WIDE FOOT ) and we was crazy enough to have shirt made singing that. We get a lot of compliments off those shirts when we wear them.

That would be safer for sure

What year did they change to dual

Cool, thanks

That’s great thank you for watching

Thanks

Yep your right

Nah crush that ugly falcon.

@@minuteman5369 wow

@@minuteman5369 Why would you crush it, that's like saying "crush that ugly Camaro" or "Crush that ugly 'Cuda" because cars from that era (especially 2-doors) are worth money.

Awesome

Me to

@@Sleeperdude Are you On Instagram!

No I’m not on the gram yet

Yes it was outside

I don’t know how good I am but thanks anyway

I bet that was a fun car

Yeah I think so to

1963 1/2

Ok thanks

I saw a falcon drag car one time named the falcoon

I’m planning on painting it back blue soon

Many of the Falcon 6 cyl.s came with red valve covers. My '65 is one of them. Ford changed mid-year to the blue.

Thanks

That’s great thanks for checking my video out

Yeah I have set them that way to

We used to use a 3x5 index card.

Thanks

Yeah I love in-line 6s

Yes, the 200 six,and 3spd auto would be just the thing for this falcon, much better than what's in it now.

Ok thanks

Chrysler used an alternator on the Valiant in 1960, and by 62 all Chrysler products used an alternator GM started using alternator's by 63,

Oh cool thanks for checking my channel out

That’s funny

Translation - "You guys are cool! Good luck to you . Thanks for the good mood!"

I knew that was around the time that they switched over

My 67 Camaro ha an alternator with external regulator.

That engine is an earlier version, not 1963. The road draft tube style is 1960 or 61. Your rear axle is toast!

Thank you

Yes for sure

Ok thanks I wasn’t 100% sure how that works

Isn,t that a chev thing

@@dadyo63 maybe so!

@@kenswitzer4133 Nah, pretty standard to have points ignition to run at ~7v. It's to stop the points burning out early. I grew up with mazda, the same, it's pretty standard worldwide. Ditch the points and go electronic and you can throw out the resistor and get 12V coils. They all crank bypassed at full volts but once running a relay cuts it and passes through a ballast resistor to 7 -9v. It's not to save the coil, it's to save the points. Chiming in as another aussie that loves falcons. Yeah we didn't get rid of them until 2017, that old 6 cyl was dragged kicking and screaming into the modern age with 4L DOHC variable valve timing turbo tech. Some of the 1970s v8s go for $1m and there's no such thing as a cheap vintage falcon around here.

@@fo3 right. Would be more of a drain on the battery as well. Just wanted to let him know when the resistor was used. I try to not criticize just be helpful. Thanks for following up with me on this. Have a great day.👍😃

Thanks man

Thank you so much for watching .. yes we love Rocky he’s the best .

I actually did that swap on a 73 maverick grabber if you look at my oldest videos I may do that with this one too

@@Sleeperdude I understand the Fairmont, Etc.front spindles and brakes are a bolt on??

I’m not sure

One more project what happened to the RV did you get it fixed

@@williemorales5315 It’s running I just have to get casings for it and do some tuneup work on it

They are great

That’s funny I wish mine was a wagon

OK thanks I’m glad I could help

Thanks

@@Sleeperdude did you finally get the car roadworthy I'm watching the Continental video right now as we speak

I got them both drivable I wouldn’t say either one was roadworthy yet

@@Sleeperdude do you have a video of it

That’s what my wife said too

@@Sleeperdude 😁

Yeah I love it thanks

Thanks

Gracias amigos , si fue buenísimo , 6 cilindros Ford 200 , Reciban Saludos . 👉🍺🍺👈👁️🇲🇽

Yes for sure

That’s awesome thank you

Wow that’s crazy

They also made them Right Hand Drive here in Australia for decades. Mostly inline 6 cylinder with some small block V8 models as well. I have owned a few over the years.

Wow that’s awesome

My first car was 64 comment with the 170 inch cube engine

Thank you
