1963 FORD FALCON RANCHERO. VERY ORIGINAL. NICE OLDER RESTORATION. ORIGINAL STRAIGHT 6 CYLINDER MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION. RUNS GREAT, CARB WAS RECENTLY PROFESSIONALLY REBUILT. RECENT TUNE UP, POINTS, PLUGS, ETC…. TIRES ARE LIKE NEW INCLUDING SPARE. BRAKES ARE GOOD WITH NEW REAR WHEEL CYLINDERS. ODOMETER READS 24,000 SO I ASSUME ITS 124,000. I’VE OWNED IT ABOUT 5 YEARS AND HAVE ONLY PUT ABOUT 200 MILES ON IT IN THAT TIME.
THEY ONLY MADE THESE WITH THE COOL, FRONT HOOD CHROME HOOD SCOOP FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS, 62-63 SO THIS IS A PRETTY RARE MODEL. I HAD A 61 MANY YEARS AGO AND IT DID NOT HAVE THIS. BY 64, FALCONS HAD A TOTALLY DIFFERENT, MORE SQUARE BODY, NOT NEARLY AS NICE! CAR IS VERY CLEAN AND STRAIGHT BUT NOT PERFECT. LOCAL INSPECTION WELCOME.
REGULAR FALCON SEDANS, EVEN THE CONVERTIBLES, ARE A DIME A DOZEN BUT, THEY DID NOT MAKE MANY RANCHEROS IN THE EARLY YEARS, THEY ARE VERY RARE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION! THEY ONLY MADE THIS HOOD STYLE 2 YEARS, WITH THE CHROME HOOD SCOOP, 62-63, BEFORE CHANGING THE BODIES COMPLETELY IN 64 TO THE UGLY, MORE SQUARE STYLE. 61 DID NOT HAVE THE HOOD SCOOP EITHER.
INTERIOR IS VERY CLEAN, SEAT IS VERY NICE, WITH ORIGINAL SEAT BELTS. SEAT, HEADLINER AND CARPET HAVE BEEN REDONE. HEADLINER IS LIKE NEW! DASH IS VERY NICE, PADDED DASH ALTHOUGH IT HAS FADED A BIT FROM THE SUN. JUST NEEDS TO BE RE-DYED IF YOU’RE A PERFECTIONIST. THE CAR DOES HAVE A FEW RUST BUBBLES STARTING ON THE LOWER DOOR PANELS BUT, NOTHING MAJOR. THE CAR IS VERY CLEAN AND RUST FREE UNDERNEATH!
YES, THE CAR IS NOT PERFECT, IF IT WERE, THE PRICE WOULD BE MUCH HIGHER.
.
I ALSO HAVE ORIGINAL OWNER’S MANUAL AND A SHOP MANUAL FOR IT. THE CAR IS TOTALLY ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE COLUMN SHIFT HAS BEEN CHANGED OVER TO A FLOOR SHIFT. SAME ORIGINAL 3 SPEED TRANNY THOUGH.
