Never mind the guy with the engine, I'm wondering how/why this '62 Falcon got 14-inch wheels (with wide whites and '60 Ford full-size wheelcovers, no less!) instead of 13s - and are they four-lug, or were the drums redrilled for five?

 

It could have later model 4 lug rims from a Mustang or Maverick.

 

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that.

 

Or Comet, Falcon..

 

Hollywood Bowl parking lot 1961 LAR show.

 

We used to stop there when I was a boy on our way to Markleville to go camping and fishing.

 

Good Story.

 

This was a 1965 Ford experiment called the Wrist Twist.

 

Someone call a water taxi?

 

That's how you change the oil in early fords!

That reminds me of the Southfield Fwy after a heavy rain......

 

Ford made some plastic display replicas of some of their 6clys back in the early '60s. I suspect that might be what we are seeing here.

 

Why isnt he putting a V8 in it ?

Probably too heavy...
