Good stuff Charlie, I've been thinking about getting a 64-65 Falcon to set up to handle. I wouldn't mind a maverick or comet, but not too many around this area.

Charlie,nice pictures of the racing Mavericks.I've see them at the drags,but never road races.

A few years back some guy was road racing a '64 Falcon in the West Coast Vintage races at Palm Springs and other places.He was blowing away the GT350's and others in his class.The car had been "Shelbyized" and flat out hauled.I think he had a big #64 on the car,and it was featured a few years back in Super Ford or some similar mag.

Cool. The neat thing about Falcons , Comets, & Mavericks is that they are basically Mustangs underneath but not just another Mustang (sorry Mustang guys ). You can 'Shelbyize' 'em and suprise most people with the performance.
