Projects 1964 Falcon B/FX Build Thread

Hey how’s it going. I have the axles out and center section out getting new gears. Going from 4.11 to 3.50. I have so much torque down low, this will hopefully make it easier to drive. Also, I was running out of gear and hitting the rev limiter before the finish line. Hope to have the center section back this week to get it all buttoned up. I will be racing at Bakersfield for Dragfest in a couple weeks. I have to finish wiring the neutral safety switch and mounting the parachute cable at the back of the car per NHRA rules. Trying to come up with a good cable mount.

 

Glad to hear you’re still at it. Good Luck at Dragfest.

How about a summer update? Got that all dialed in now?

 

I have had it out for a few car shows, but no racing this summer. I will be racing 9/28 at Fontana and then in October at the hotrod reunion. I need to get the Gas gauge working properly and do some minor maintenance (spark plugs, tighten headers). I got a 55 Victoria earlier this year so I have been working on deconstructing it, getting ready for paint/ motor/ trans etc. and I am building a 64 Fairlane sedan t bolt clone for my dad. We have a 427 with high riser heads and intake that I had, to put on it, plus a toploader so it should be a cool car.

 

What about the poor neglected Comet? Do you still have it?

 

Yep!

 

Looks GREAT Roy would be happy

 

You have been busy!

FE power The rocket didn't stand a chance.

 

We are actually really close in performance! Within 1mph of each other. That 351W is strong

 

Picked up a new toy today

 

Sure go ahead and be a tease

 

427 high riser! I think it will be for sale in the next few weeks if anyone is looking for an FE
