    LB,

    When I first saw your photo above, I said to myself: "I don't believe that that Falcon has a 260 in it..."

    Then I noticed the lettering right in front of the hood scoop: "505 cubic inches." Now THAT I can believe!

    Well thought out car for sure. I like that he kept the rear wheel wells almost stock looking.

    I hope so too. I’ve never even heard of the place but it’s closer to home and that’s great. See you there.

  19. This is an awesome thread. I remember as a kid going to an annual parade in Watkins Glen/Montour Falls in upstate N.Y. and one of the local guys had a falcon drag car he would have pulled through the parade route. At certain spots he would stop , un-hook the car and do a burnout. I was fascinated. I think it might have been a funny car though. I think I remember seeing the car displayed once with the body propped up. Anyhow I've always had a special fascination for these old Falcons. I've actually used this thread as a reference on a couple occasions for some art work I have done. Thanks a lot for all who have contributed.
