My thoughts exactly. Your so right about that! Today's cars certainly don't have the style like back in the days. It's all computer generated and microchips on wheels today. I suppose it's all in the name of safety. You can thank Mr McNamara for going on that bandwagon. As one guy[I don't remember his name,can someone remind me] put it, today's music ain't got the same soul like "old time rock and roll". Its the same with cars IMO. Gr8 car and owner. Have a blessed day.
My dad brought me home from the hospital when I was born in a beat up green 64 Falcon coupe. Needless to say, I have always loved these cars, literally since birth.
Thank you Mr. Boyer for sharing your beautiful car with all of us! The 1964 Ford Falcon has always had a special place in my heart! I was born in January of 1964 and my late Father bought my late Mother a brand new 1964 Ford Falcon Futura sedan in June of 1964. My Mom's Falcon was "Springtime Yellow" with a gray/silver interior. It had the 170 C.I. in line six cylinder engine and three speed manual transmission with the shifter mechanism on the steering column. When my Dad would reflect on the events of 1964, he would talk about my birth, and buying the Falcon. He mostly talked about the Falcon! :)
I LOVE THIS ONE! And he pampers it! Everything is spit-shined to perfection. I can't blame him. A very sweet ride. 3 Wows! Thanx for profiling this treasure, Lou!
You have that correct about the badges branding you. I had a brand new 65 Galaxie 500-XL and it had plain chrome strips in the back of the seat and one day I got in it after it had set in the California sum for a few hours and I had a blister on my back the size of that badge and I was wearing a shirt.
Hi pg1171, Curious to read what your wife thinks of this car. let me know her reaction, and while you're at it show her a bunch of Mustangs on this RUclips Channel too, Lou
I had a 64 falcon 2dr 260 v8 3sp in high school . Stupid ass me sold it for a 73 nova.. boy after watching this video what memories have come back. Sure would like to have that car now !!!...
My first car in 1967 was a ‘64 Falcon two door sedan that was purchased new at Johnson Ford in Chicago. I bought it from a family friend who brought it to California with lavender “Land of Lincoln” plates. It could hold six people and weekend luggage for them, but the 144 CID engine was just not powerful enough to get up hills without downshifting to second gear (three speed stick). As I remember, the ignition switch was on the left side (unlike this red convertible), and the one speed wiper switch was on the right, next to the cigarette lighter (which I replaced with a four-way hazard switch). My color was Prairie Bronze.
Nice Falcon Sprint Lou!! These were great cars!! The Aussie '64 & '65 Falcons were very different looking - even though the '60 to '63 were basically the same as the US models. Cheers Tiger.
Great! Love Mr coool's cool falcon! Gorgeous shape n style! Def a sweet candy apple ride, it's perfect! Awesome sound... a birdie that can roar, rare! Thanks cool mr lou for ur cool vid😊
A friend of mine in high school , his dad got him a new 64 falcon futura sprint with 289HO , 4 spd rag top . The little car was fast and could mess up a 421 Bonniville . It was stock and a rag top as well .
What a awesome car Lou! Looks like brand new from.top.to.bottom. Like you said Lou I prefer a car that is all original too! Sounded healthy loved the color in and out but I love red in anything. It looked awesome from the side shot of the car real sporty look. I loved the owner too a big part of each car is the owner and their stories! A beautiful unit Lou! Thanks for sharing!!
Hi Acts2211, Happy to read you learned something new. I find that as so much fun when I'm learning from the Care Takers, and I'm learning all the time, Lou
The 1964 Falcon with a 260 cu was the precursor to the 289 cu which followed a year later in the Falcons in 1965. With a little tweaking (4-bbl carb and a larger lift cam) those 260's did alright. But the 289 was the preferred engine to build for racing. My Brother-In-Law had a Dixie Boat (Inboard/outboard) with a special built 289 cu by Holman-Moody. It would run 70 mph flatout. That was a sweet boat!
@@bartricky5894 - Yes they did! I had a friend that was a girl back in High School (1969) that had a Red, 1966 Sunbeam Tiger with a 260 V-8, w/ragtop, 4-sp., and that little sucker was FAST! I rode in it once. My then girlfriend found out about it and told me that I'd better stay away from that girl ... or else! She had nothing to worry about. The car was sweet, but the girl was ugly!
Haven't seen one of these in a while Lou. Thanks for locating this car and posting it. The wheels on the car are very appealing. Were they a factory option in 1964?
Hi Larry Hawkins, You're right, you don't see many like this one anymore. Not sure if this is a factory rim, or a later Mustang wheel. Hopefully a Viewer can share knowledge, Lou
I have the same car, but it's a Futura. All original, except for carpet, window rubber, and paint. Even the convertible top is original. 260 V8, 2 barrel, 4 speed. I want to change exhaust to duels, but was told I had to use headers, because of the starter location. Any suggestions?

Damn that's a beautiful Falcon, I wonder if the top was power and was it a 4 barrel carb, sure sounds sweet! I once had a '66 Mercury Cyclone with a 289 4 speed, it was a blast!

napoleon and legarto rodriguez drive the non-sprint version of this bit of americana in michael nesmith's "repo man." there is a continuity error in the picture. a mid seventies impala rear-ends the falcon, and smashes its front facia, but then the damage isn't evident at confrontation afterwards, where the hood of the chevy is beaten with a bat. 1980's
I had one from 1964 (fall) to 1969 ~Wife hit tree with it wipeout put 200000 miles on it. Only difference body was black, with red between side crome. I gave less then $2,000.00 the guy I parched it from still owed $2400.00 dollars on it !! which is a story in it self........ the only change I made was wheel size from 13" t0 14".... I'll soon be 75 and still miss my first nice car.........A life time ago........ Sprint 4 Sure ........ Amen .:.&.:. (Indiana)
they didint put double exhaust on low performance 2BBL engine. with 164 hp the engine couldnt even fill the single. but it had 258 of torque was very durable and gave 24-25 MPG people love em alot in those days, people liked the 221 but they complained it was too weak so 260 came in because of feedback
Squint yer eyes on the front of that falcon and u can see a Lincoln and Imperial, dodge polara front end. Not a bad looking car. Flip the indentation over in the center of the hood, and u have a 68 firebird beak. Rear end is good looking too. The car looks better than other year falcons.
Nice car... Only the Seatbelts were not Original...but modern replacements.. Believe the Magnum 500's did not come out til '65... A Nice bird all in all...! :o) Tony K. 1966 Sprint 200 Mustang Registry, MCA#70001

Unfortunately, someone who didn't know any better resprayed it in the all-too-common Resale Red. This car would be a real standout in the original Raven Black.
MANY STOCK WERE "Rangoon Red". What facts do you have that it is not the stock color??? Sorry!! Door tag says "Raven Black" . Please give me a second chance.
Lou, It's remarkable, this was considered a plain looking car in its day yet it has more style than 90% of what is on the road today.
Hi Right Lane Hog, You're right this one does have lots of styling, and cars tend to look better with age, Lou
All original but the duel exhaust “lol” I would have done the same
