Re: Project Falcon

You don't always have to give up the autocross stuff. You just might not get to do it right now. These are really cool little cars and honestly a strong six, maybe overdrive and a tbi setup on the intake would make it a little bit more fun. Personally I like four doors just fine. There are always two doors at shows and in the parking lots. How many red two doors do you really need to see? Keep it simple and it will award you with many many miles.

So my plan for your car....lol. Let's say you keep the six or maybe graduate to something a little bigger. You add TBI which would be nice but not necessary or really any of the new fuel injection stuff out there on the market. Get it running right. Find a nice overdrive automatic. Give it some decent gearing. Make it peppy you know. Slap some disc brakes on it or change the front end to the mustang II if you like. Keep the paint simple and clean. Don't stray far from the original color combo. Turn the stock interior back to stock. Put a nice radio in it. As for wheels do something traditional. Do it right. Nice thin white walls and chrome steelies maybe. Personal preference there and just drive it. You can haul all six plus one and have tons of fun.
