Snake45 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Very, VERY cool! I did one very similar in 1969. Do you have any other old survivor builds you've restored? I LOVE these things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I remember building this kit when it was new. Mine didn't look as good as yours though; mainly lots of glue and white styrene. Very nice restoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be built as a Factory Stock, Drag Car or Custom. Tooling was then updated to a 69 And then turned into a Modified Stocker, and thus guaranteeing that we will never probably see a stock one again.

stevez Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I guess you have to spend like $200 on the bay to find the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, just go to kit shows and keep an eye out, I found one for only $20. Not mint, but it is a decent builder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodent Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Never had any of the Falcons other than a 64 convertible built-up that I acquired in 1988 or so. Looking at online 66-69 instruction sheets, it looks like none could be built stock. Looks like an FE-like blob with Webers is the stock engine. Does that sound right to those of you who have seen one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
