1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible in Blue & 260 Engine Sound on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

On "My Car Story" we're at the OC Fair & Event Center in Costa Mesa, CA on 3-15-19 at the Classic Auto Show.

We're looking at a 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible in Blue Paint. The car is equipped with a 260 CI V8 engine.

The car's being shared by the Restorer Darin Smith. He’s shares he had purchased this car and restored it, however when one of his customers saw it, she wanted it. The car has less than 24000 original miles on it.

I agree with Lou, the old cars look great restored to their original look as the designers intended. I can't stand when modifiers lower any vehicle. What an incredible find. Such rich, deep colors.

[MyHumanWreckage]

One of the nicest Falcon restorations I’ve ever seen.

I was a teenager in the 60s and seeing these cars from that era brings back many good memories.

I had a 65 2 door coupe in that exact color but wasn't the Sprint model and only had a 200 straight 6
It was my first car in 1980
My dad and I did the body work together
Brings back fond memories indeed
Thanks for sharing

A V-8 motor was very unusual for a Falcon! Nice! Thanks Lou!

My uncle had a black 66 Falcon when he left for Vietnam, remember as kid seeing it parked under the carport next door at my grandmother's everyday waiting for him...

[chuckster]

That is a gorgeous Ford Falcon. The paint is incredible and in perfect condition. Gotta love the color.

Lou,
Mr. Smith was fantastic, I like his way of thinking, he is a bit of a purest regarding his restoration work. As you said, it's a cute little ford with a fantastic sounding V8. It's a delightful car!

At the heart of every Mustang lie's a Falcon . Sweet old car . Thank's for posting .

[TigerRogers]

Lou my friend, you've outdone yourself this time! This is the best '64 Falcon sprint i've ever seen! Outstanding. Thanks for showing. Cheers Tiger.

[ChristopherHayniedd]

Lou look at the engine it literally isn’t moving at all. Wow that’s what I call smooth.

[Victoria-jo]

This is what became the Ford Mustang thks for sharing always liked seeing Falcons.

[jonlennon]

Lou you hit it out of the park. I love those Falcons which spawned the Mustang.

[audieconrad]

Lou, this car is just sweet. Can u imagine what it must've been like to walk into a showroom in late '63 and see that?! That 260 gave it just enough ooomph... great little motor that morphed into the mighty 289. Nice find Lou.

[fredanddebramacdonald]

These cars were rare even when new. And in here Wisconsin, these things rusted out in about three years. I can’t remember the last time I saw one. As can be seen, the restoration work done is as good as it gets. Another great car story, Lou. Thanks

[AtlantaGymFan]

Beautiful car - I didn't know any families that had this car, so this looks great!

[DavidSmith-htye]

Lou Awesome Awesome car too!!! Thanks for bring us this video I really enjoyed it!!!!

[davidcruz]

Thanks Lou for showing us this beautiful falcon.

[huntsman]

They did a amazing job on restoring that car that is a dream car thanks for sharing

You are absolutely correct; restoring cars to their original state as the designers & manufacturers had intended. To me, that’s always the best restore. I’m ok with people who like to restore to upgrade this & that because at least a vintage car is saved, and I truly appreciate those. But I still love, love pure original cars as they were designed. What a great and simple convertible!! Suits me to a ‘T’!!
