realgone58 Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Just finished this one up. You can see from the before pic that it was a mess when I got it. That's still the same factory Oxford Blue metallic finish in the after pics. Alclad II for the bumpers. Can't keep 'em all, so this one will be heading to evilbay.
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Very nice rework. Always liked these little cars.
bbowser Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Well done restoration. What'll something like that go for on the bay? Excuse my ignorance, I hardly ever go there
Harry P. Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Beautiful! I have fond memories of the first-gen Falcons... it was my dad's very first car ever.
Austin T Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Every time I mention Falcons to my father he talks about how the only colors they came in were blue and green and the only people who drove them were farmers who tried to plow down motorcyclists.My dad loves to ride motorcycles. Something makes me think he has had a few bad memories of them. Great job on the paint.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 That's my kind of car, and also my kind of model!!! Very nice work saving the original paint, and also on the detailing.
Draggon Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Nice! Speaking of ebay, why did you decide to sell it off?
mikemopar70 Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Nice restoration! Sweet looking and clean, i like it!!
Guest Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 That's a very nice looking little Falcon Al! I love these little cars and have a lot of memories with them. It would be hard for me to give that little model up! Nice work and I hope you do well with selling it!
realgone58 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Posted May 12, 2013 Nice! Speaking of ebay, why did you decide to sell it off? Well, I really want to have a '60 Falcon base model to represent Falcon's early years in my collection. Perhaps a 4 door made using the roof from a '60 Comet 4 door promo? I would really like a wagon.
