Falcons have a following, sure, but they aren’t that common, and a four-door 1960s-vintage Falcon doesn’t excite anyone here in America (shaddup, Aussies, we know, we know). In fact, that’s why this 93,xxx-mile 1967 Falcon caught my eye. For starters, it’s a clean sedan. It’s powered by the 200ci six and has an automatic transmission. This was Aunt Judy’s car, the most basic of the basic.

But….hear me out. Whatever works on a 1967 Mustang works on a 1967 Falcon, right? So, why not try a phantom build? Say Shelby took pity on the family man and decided that a hopped-up four-door Falcon was the perfect trick. Maybe it would work somehow on the SCCA circuit too, who knows. While the 428-powered GT500 debuted for ’67, we think that something more like the GT350 would be more appropriate: a nasty little small-block screamer, backed by a TopLoader, with the suspension goodies and the exhaust note and all. Take some style cues from Ford Australia’s XR GT Falcon, and that sounds like a winner.

Or, just enjoy a nice, stock light blue six-cylinder Falcon. Your choice, after all.

Frankly, we didn’t really even know that these cars existed. We should have as Olds sold more than 30,000 of the suckers during this last gasp of humongo luxury. Rolling down the road on the 122-inch wheelbase and sitting on the couch-like front seat must have been just the ticket for old school buyers who wanted the most modernized massive car the company made. For 1978 the cars were unchanged, still. It was in 1979 when the shrunken version of the E-body arrived. Gone was the 403 and in went a 350 engine. There was also a diesel offered that year. A notable disaster of an experience that some 8,000 people participated in.

Longer than a Buick Electra 225 and weighing in at 4,700lbs, these things really must have been a sight to behold back then.

This car is in wonderful shape although someone is going to have to get their hands dirty to get the weeping, leaking underside handled. Hey, the good news is that it will never rust.

We’re not sure what the market is for these cars but this one seems to be about as nice as anyone would ever find and it is listed for $14,500. Is that steep? We’re not sure. We just know you can’t put a proper price on this type of 1970s swank and luxury!

This particular intake will bolt onto any FE engine unlike the tunnel port stuff which needed the special heads to fit. This one uses medium riser style ports so if you have a hankering for all this goodness on top of your FE, bolt away. In reading a load of posts on Ford boards, this sucker will apparently fit under the hood of most period cars as well.

Is it overkill? Yes. Will it be more eye-candy than legit performance upgrade for many engines? Probably. Do we still want it? Hell yes.

I’m a proponent of smaller trucks and coupe-utilities. If I had the funds, I’d import an Aussie ride over here, don’t really care which one. Ford, Holden, Chrysler, they all look great to me. Well, except maybe the AU Falcon. Even I can’t get fully on-board with that one. But El Caminos, Rancheros, GM S-trucks, Dakotas…all great, all reasonably sized. You don’t feel like you’re a small step away from needing a CDL to drive one, you can park it without accidentally nudging some grandmother’s Buick Encore, and don’t need a built-in “man step” to get in the back to unload it. And that’s why I dig this little Pinto so much.

This Pinto has quite a bit going for it. For starters, as a 1980 model, the whole exploding joke doesn’t qualify…this is a post-recall Pinto. It was also a wagon when it left the assembly line, but in this day an age, changing things up with a bit of surgery is barely anything to blink at. And the little mini-Ranchero look works well here, with a clean conversion, a wood-detailed bed and storage box, and even some thought given to the interior space behind the front seats. Someone really went out of their way to build this car right.

Speaking of built right, go under the hood. No 2.3L four here…per the description, that’s a 302, a C6 automatic, and a rear axle filled with Richmond 3.55 gears. You want a small truck for just over twenty grand? Take your pick…you could have a brand-new Maverick. Or, you could score this custom Pinto. Your call!

While many people like the Buick Sport Wagon over the Vista Cruiser, we’d argue that styling-wise, the Olds wins this fight. The way the bumpers wrap, those muscular rear quarter panel kickouts, and even the finished treatment of the rear bumper all make this thing really great from literal end to end.

This car was only driven 44,000 miles over the last 50 years. Outside of the paint and some other stuff under the car it’s as original as it can be. The interior is all kinds of brown. It would surely be sticky as hell in the middle of the summer and you’d slide across it an ice rink in the winter but it’s perfect.

What else can we say. This is just fantastic on every level.

As the seller notes in his ad, this thing is the cure for the common Impala. They sold something like 650,000 Impalas that year and even the big Pontiacs were larger sellers. There’s very little we’d change about this car outwardly. The wheels are older but they seem to fit this car perfectly. We’d probably swap a stock style steering wheel back onto it and yes, we’d 100% hunt around for a 425 to put in it and then likely plug a stick behind it. Not to make the car some sort of a drag racer, but just to have the big cubic inch hair on its chest.

The seller is looking for a little more than $20,000 here and for the quality of car it seems to be, we’re thinking that’s good money. What say you?

This particular engine is awesome because it has been totally rebuilt and has 0-hours on said rebuild. For all intents and purposes, you are looking at a brand new engine. Now, that being said…The maintenance tag that is shown in the ad seems to indicate that this particular unit went into service in 1943, was rebuilt with 360 hours on it and then weirdly again with 362 hours on it and lastly it was stamped in February of 1944 where it was serviced again with nearly 500 hours on it.

Who wants one of these? Well, vintage hydroplane racers, tractor pullers still use them to some degree, and anyone who loves engines would enjoy owning this amazing, supercharged, piece of high horsepower war-fighting history. At $37,500 and with the capability of being turbocharged and making some huge by large power, it actually makes some financial sense when stacked up next to the cost of a blown, billet hemi or similar engine.

What a neat piece!

The car is powered by a 303hp 361ci engine that made torque for days and surely shoves this thing down the road with no trouble. It has the pushbutton transmission with the controls mounted in the steering wheel, a red and white interior that looks all but brand new and even the wire wheels, which we’re normally not fans of, look right at home here.

The Edsel brand was doomed by a few major things. Yeah, the styling was one but the late 1950s economic recession, a rollout that was just not executed properly, and market pressure from the likes of GM and others made the brand an albatross around the neck of Ford.  Oh, and this thing is rare. Only 892 1958 Bermuda wagons were built. They sold for $3,155 bucks which is about $30,000 in today’s money.

And yes, we know the brand as a failure but it needs to be noted that overall, in 1958 Edsel had the larges introductory year of sales of any mid-priced brand ever in history. By 1960, it was doomed.
