Description of 1968 Ford Falcon SPORT COUPE |
WE ARE VERY PLEASED TO PRESENT ONE OF THE NICEST AND STRAIGHTEST 68 FALCONS AROUND. THIS IS A LOW MILE CAR THAT HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND HAS ZERO RUST AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL . THERE ISN'T EVEN SURFACE RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS ENTIRE CAR. THE UNDERSIDE IS PHENOMENAL. IT IS A FACTORY UNDERCOATED CAR AND THERE IS BEAUTIFUL FACTORY COLOR UNDER THE 50 YEAR OLD UNDERCOATING. THERE ISN'T EVEN A DIMPLE IN THE FLOOR PANS . WE WOULD SAY IT'S PERFECT BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING. HERE'S HOW THE CAR CAME:WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP PAPERWORK, CERTICARD, AND INVOICE FOR THIS BEAUTY 8 (1968) X (ST. THOMAS ONTARIO) 22 ( 2 DOOR SPORT COUPE) C (289 V8) THEN THE PRODUCTION NUMBERTRIM TAG:BODY: 2 DOOR COUPE(62C, COLOR (A) FACTORY BLAC, TRIM 8D ( RED DELUXE VINYL, DATE (APR 68) DSO (16) PHILADELPHIA, AXLE(5) 3.00:, TRANS(W) AP3 AUTOMATIC C4.THIS CAR IS A FACTORY AIR CONDITIONED CAR AND HAS ALL THE VENTING, SWITCHING AND DUCTS INTACT. WE WILL SUPPLY A NEW CONDENSER, DRYER, FACTORY COMPRESSOR, AND RELATED HARDWARE TO MAKE IT FUNCTIONAL AGAIN WITH THE SALE. UNDER THE DASH OF THIS CAR IS AS NICE AS WE HAVE EVER SEEN. WE WILL ADD A WHOLE BUNCH OF ADDITIONAL PICTURES ON OUR WEBSITE EM2COOL DOT COM. WE CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH HOW WELL THIS 50 YEAR OLD CAR HAS BEEN KEPT THROUGHOUT ALL THESE YEARS. THERE AREN'T EVEN BLEMISHES IN THE DOOR WELLS OR TRUNK. IT'S AMAZING ACTUALLY.THE MOTOR IS AN ORIGINAL 289 CUBIC INCH BUT HAS BEEN UPGRADED WITH A NEW FOUR BARREL CARB AND FORD INTAKE. IT HAS A COMPLETE TUNE UP WITH NEW BELTS, HOSES, AND IGNITION. THERE ARE NO LEAKS APPARENT IN THE ENGINE, TRANS, OR POWER STEERING. THE TRANSMISSION BETTER NOT LEAK....IT'S BRAND NEW!! WE SPENT 2100.00 TO MAKE IT TOP OF THE LINE FOR A C4 AT THE BEST TRANSMISSION SHOP ON THE WEST COAST AND ADDED A B&M 7 QT TRANSMISSION PAN TO KEEP IT COOL. THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE IT WAS BRAND NEW. REALLY! THE SUSPENSION HAS NEW UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS, NEW SHOCKS ( AIR IN THE REAR) BRAND NEW 2 1/4 " ALUMINIZED EXHAUST WITH HEADERS, DISC BRAKES, AND NEW TIRES AND WHEELS. I'VE OWNED THE WHEEL CENTERS FROM A SHELBY FOR OVER 30 YEARS AND DECIDED TO PUT THEM ON THE FALCON AMERICAN RACING WHEELS. I PERSONALLY LOVE THE LOOK . THE CAR HAS BEEN LOWERED IN THE FRONT 1" AND IT HANDLES LIKE A DREAM. I ALSO LIKE THE '68 HOOD SCOOP ON THIS BLACK BEAUTY. THE INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE CARPET AND FLOOR MATS AND DASH COVER. SURPRISINGLY IT IS NOT BRITTLE AND THE DOOR PANELS AND PACKAGE TRAY ARE NEAR PERFECT. THERE IS NOT EVEN COLOR FADING IN THE MATERIAL. THERE IS ONE SMALL SEAM SPLIT AT THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT TOP THAT WILL BE REPAIRED PRIOR TO SHIPPING TO MAKE THIS A TRUE FORD COLLECTORS PIECE. THERE IS ALSO SOME LIGHT FADING ON THE PAINTED AREA ON THE DOOR TOPS AT THE INTERIOR. THIS IS REALLY A TIME CAPSULE THAT YOU CAN JUMP IN AND DRIVE ACROSS THE COUNTRY WITH ZERO PROBLEMS SHOULD YOU SO DESIRE. 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE IS NO PROBLEM ALL DAY LONG................................ IT HAS THE ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE WITH 100% TREAD WHICH HOLDS 32 POUNDS AIR BUT I WOULDN'T TRUST IT AT 70 MPH !! LOL DISCLAIMERS: THE ABOVE DESCRIBED 1968 FORD FALCON SPORT COUPE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS" AND "WHERE IS". THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
