    I am pretty sure this is currently for sale. $9,200aud.
    (if that link doesn't work, it is on www.carsales.com.au under '1963 Ford Falcon XL Deluxe). Has extra pics.

    SOLO 909,
    I like the looks of the close shave. It changes my mind about 4 rds. Have you done engine, suspension mods yet?
    Gona be very,very cool.

    Thanks! Suspension - I did shelby drop with 1 1/3" cut coils, I raised the shock towers 1" and the back just has 3" blocks I also upgraded to the 65 mustange 14" rims to fill up the wheelwells a little more. No engine mods yet any idea what I could do to pep this up a little bit?

    Solo,
    A late model head (78-79) alittle stronger cam,headers,2-v carb, that is if its a 170 or a 200 I-6 Oh yea, and a 70s Comet -Maverick 8" rear end.
    Next option: Sb ford v-8,302 roller motor and a c-4 or T-5 5 speed
    And again a 70s Comet -Maverick 8" rear end. May won't to cut it to 551/2" for more and bigger tire & wheel. The 70s Mav- Comet rear is 1/2" wider than your stock rear end.
    The v-8 change will most likely be cheaper and give better power for your $$$.

    A lot of nice looking Falcons here and I keep coming back to see all the updates...I guess a wagon would be my choice. Are there an elusive parts on these cars and what years. I was turkey hunting last spring and ran across this one....can't save it though..last pic is a buck rub..he was back this year.

    Here are the latest set of pics of my old falcon that I sold to a friend, finished out the bodywork, powdercoated suspension parts, and a fresh 427.

    That's a bit much for me (not really much for the muddin' look), but I would like a roundbody Fordor wagon on a four-wheel-drive S10 chassis with a Y-block adapted to the 700-R4 for going up North. Stock height with an all-business Marmon-Herrington kind of look.
