1963 Ford Falcon Futura
VIN 3H15U207724
What’s special about this listing
The Maltese Falcon has hit the market! I have owned this classic car since the Spring of 2000. It was purchased from the owner in New Rochelle, NY. It had been kept in his garage for the duration of his ownership, and then kept in my garage for the past 24 years. We had a lot of Fun with this car. It was mainly a novelty around town whenever we took it out for a spin. It is original in nature, and I haven't changed anything on the car. The interior was updated from the owner in New Rochelle, or the one before him. It has been well taken care of over the many years of its life. This Falcon runs like a Top. It starts right up and is ready to go. The odometer has not worked since I have owned it, as well as the emergency brake. The only thing that is not original is the radio, which hasn't worked and it doesn't have an antenna... But other than that, the car is in very good shape and a lot of fun. I think the optimum buyer for this car would be someone who would be interested in automotive restoration. I was never interested in the process or the expense to have it done, for I originally purchased it because my grandfather had one, and I had fond memories of it. It does have some rust for a 61 year old car, but has never been parked outside of the garage for more than a week. It has been well maintained over the years, but hasn't been on the road for the last several years due to illness in the family. If this is what you are looking for... It is happily awaiting your arrival in New York.
