    NOBODY is doing this "extra mile" TLC on YT. In some ways, it seems like you guys have created a new kind of restoration concept that hopefully will catch on as it encourages many of your viewers. Putting vehicles back on the road like this is American Ingenuity with a hell of a lot of elbow grease. Another Awesome Video.

    These plain Jane cars need just as much love as the fancy ones as there are probably less of the base models left than the fancy ones . These were the backbone of the country and need saving. They are definitely the forgotten heros

    Not to shabby??? It's freaking gorgeous. Even the thin paint on the edges, even the scratches that have been waxed, the faded bits. It's patina and appropriate for its age and history. It's got a new engine and if the interior scrubs up that Falcon will be pure joy to drive.

    My uncle bought a 64" Falcon ,brand new. Light blue, 6 cyl. 3 on the tree. Drove it the rest of his life till he died of cancer 50 years later when he left it to his daughter. It still looked brand new. Last I heard she still has it and trying to keep it as well as he did.

    You must be congratulated on a stunning, dedicated renovation: a '63 Falcon Squire wagon - in the same green depicted here - was my father's first Ford.

    First time I'm watching the channel. Love the old Falcon as it reminds me of the 1965 Mercury Comet 202 my mom used to have. I would not be surprised if the doors and some other components were interchangeable among the two. I vaguely recall our Comet had a 200 something inch 6 cylinder engine with 3 on the tree.

    It would be interesting to see the history of this falcon as the color is the same as used by the US ARMY garrison vehicles of the day. The front door respray was how the cars went to auction. Under the top layer of paint could be the old Army decals in white lettering. I do love the level 1 restoration on this car.

    So glad I stumbled upon this channel a little while back! Y’all do such an amazing job with everything. One suggestion: when detailing, before each time I reapply more compound to the pad, I like to take the air compressor and blow out all the built up gunk that’s accumulated in the pad before I apply more compound to it. It helps cuts down on the chance of having any swirls in the finish. Keep up the good work!

    My first car was a 1964 Ford Falcon two door in a light blue color. That car was so easy to work on and I learned so much on how to keep it running. To think what that car was like at 64,000 miles and 16 years old when I got it compared to my 70,000 mile 2016 Hyundai Elantra is a reason why I say "thank goodness they don't build them like they used to". My Elantra is like new inside and out and looks amazing. The Falcon had rusted out floor boards on the driver's side and the engine had to be yanked and replaced with another 170 cid engine because the original was just worn out.
