  • Moved to Post Falls Idaho from Vashon Island Washington. Drove my Falcon just over 300 miles! She did great. Still have a few more things I need to do like, installing an emergency brake system, paint, disc brakes and hook up my stereo. ‪@GrandpaDanX10‬

      Thank you Glenn. I think it is one of the best looking cars on the planet. Sometimes I walk into the garage and it just stops me in my tracks, because I can't believe I really own one. Dream of mine since high school when I first saw one drive into the parking lot. White as well. I am truly blessed.
      Cheers to you.

    I had a 65 Futura convertible back in the late 70s.
    It was white with white top and red interior.
    I wish I still had it.

      Oh man, I feel ya. I found out that mine is actually Not a Futura after all. It is just a sedan, but I don't really care. I love it!

    It may not be a genuine Futura, but it IS as nice as any Falcon I've ever seen. Nice job, and glad you fixed that annoying rattle. It just gets better!

      Yes, I did finally understand that my Falcon is not a Futura. Oh well, I still love it!

    Just built a set of wheel cribs to set the pinion angle on my daughters ‘64 as well! Easiest way to do it!

    50 years ago when I 13 working in my father's garage we bought a 1965 falcon same body style but dark blue for the same price 50$ but no transmission.

    • @GrandpaDanX10
      @GrandpaDanX10  ปีที่แล้ว

      Such a deal! You might be able to buy a used fender for $50 now days. These cars are not cheep anymore are they.

    What a cool car I have a sixty five hard top working on little by little I have so many projects right now but I can't wait to get it going

    • @GrandpaDanX10
      @GrandpaDanX10  ปีที่แล้ว

      Understand. I have a new garrage and have been arranging things so that I can work on my 65 with more room to jack it up and really get under it. Next project is installing a parking break. Wish me luck! Have a blast tinkering with your baby. Slow and sure is the ticket. Cheers

    Thanks for sharing your Falcon…you have a fine family. The scenery in Washington sure is nice. Is the footage at the end from your new home in Idaho?

    • @GrandpaDanX10
      @GrandpaDanX10  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Glenn, yes Idaho. We are loving it here! Vashon Island WA is a beautiful place, but you have to rely on the ferry system. Since Covid it has gone down hill. Not convenient for shopping or Dr appointments, hospitals etc. Property taxes are So high, we had to move.

    Might be a silly question but, does the seat go back further? It looks like y’all are right on top of the steering wheel when you drive it. Is that a normal thing with the Falcon? Asking because I’m thinking about buying one. Thanks. 😊

    • @GrandpaDanX10
      @GrandpaDanX10  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes it goes much further back, my wife and I have short legs lol. My 6' 3" son-in-law can drive it no problem. I think you need to buy one. These Falcons are pretty light and if you put a V8 in one it just scoots! However, I had one with a six cylinder and it had plenty of pep. They are just fun cars. Good luck on your search.

    Rear spring longer length rear shackles? Really? Dumbass idea. Better off with adding a spring leaf or buying new springs proper for that car's specs/needs.

    • @GrandpaDanX10
      @GrandpaDanX10  ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. Going to do that soon. Do you know where to purchase extra leaf springs? Maybe that's a Dumbass question.
