The Falcon was a pretty good car.
I had a 1965 Falcon Ranchero with
a 289, bored .030 over, flat top
forged pistons, and at the time,
what was called a 3/4 race cam,
A Offenhauser high rise, Holley
600 cfm 4bbl, and headers.
I’ve owned 4 different
Mustangs, and one GM product.
A 1981 Corvette, which was the
biggest piece of junk that’s
ever graced my garage.
I had a late 1986 with the L-98(?) aluminum heads, BUT got the 4+3 (oops - I didn’t know). Supposedly only about 67xxx or 68xxx on it. Didn’t appear to have been wrecked, BUT that car had a lot of problems. Clear coat peeling off (all ‘vettes those years), LCD dash lights going out, transmission eventually broke (just bought a new one). I finally let her go several years ago (7-8 years ago). Didn’t get much money out of it.
I replaced the Gatorback tires with BF Goodrich. Rode much better and much more stable on uneven pavement. Car was fun to drive. Oh well.....
