  • Falcon Ranchero changed the title to 1960 Ford from the 2023 Cruise Night
Posted

My Grandmother managed a large retirement home or as she called it "Social Security Condos" in the 80s. I remember a plain jane '60 Ford like the one in your video sitting in the parking lot. Really clean and well maintained. My dad tried several times to buy that car off the old lady that drove it but no sale. She died and the car went away. I did end up buying a nice original '70 Nova from another old lady in the same building about 10 yrs later. I traded it for a rough '65 Corvette that I ended up doing well on once I cleaned it up a bit.

Amazing the things you forgot about until see something and it triggers a flashback. Thanks for posting this!

Same body style my Dad and I had as a project when I was a teen.............. Ours was factory black with a silverish interior. V8 and 3-on-the-tree. We put a 351 from a '68 Galaxie with an automatic into the Fairlane. One of those 'wish I still had' stories......
