    Had a 65 Cyclone, maroon with camel interior, 289 with the 225 hp and 4 speed. It was pretty quick, did a lot of street racing.

    '64 Falcon Sprint is one of my favorite Fords from this era. I knew 2 guys that had 'em, so I was along for cruisin' and big burnouts in 'em.

    The Cyclone models are really beginning to take off as collectible cars in their own rite, just like AMC, Oldsmobile, Plymouth, Pontiac, and Studebaker, especially from the muscle car era. I love these cars!

    Actually, the "A" in GTA Fairlanes denoted an automatic trans, but they did make a Fairlane GT with a 4 speed.

    I had a '65 Comet Caliente convertible, 289 2 bbl automatic. It was the first year of the delay wiper switches, the patent that Ford and others stole from the inventor.

      Thanks for watching John and leaving your comment! We have a real soft spot for the 65 Comet Caliente! We cruised the PCH in California in one once!

    I watched this video and only found one discrepancy.
    The 64- wagon was on a shorter Falcon wheel base.
    That's why Nicholson built the 64 wagon A/fx car.
