This Ford Falcon Futura Convertible has been both loved and cherished throughout its Southern California life. It was purchased approximately five years ago from a gentleman who believed it to be an original 13,000 mile parade car. Since, it has had a complete overhaul of its engine and has now records over 16,000 miles on its odometer having both been driven regularly by its current owner, and displayed in a local Southern California automotive museum. This Falcon is equipped with a 170-cid inline six-cylinder engine with a rare factory four-speed transmission. In addition, it has the coveted Futura trim accents and appointments, and is equipped with a power convertible top which is reported to function as it should. It is finished in a beautiful Corinthian White with a Navy blue top and baby blue interior. It is an extremely clean and show worthy example with simulated knock-off wheels, thin whitewall tires, top boot, spare tire and checked matting in its trunk.

Both a beloved icon and economic performer, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy both a completely stock collector’s item and a highly capable product of Ford ingenuity once advertised for its superior fuel efficiency of “30 miles per gallon.”
