1965 Ford Falcon Futura Convertible 33K Miles 1 Family Owned -Special History

This 1965 Ford Falcon Futura Convertible has a very interesting history, both with the Ford Motor Company, and the original owners who purchased it in 1966. According to the build history from the data plate, it was "born" January 7th, 1964. It was sent to New York to be on display at the World's Fair of the two seasons in 1964 and 1965 (Documentation letter from Ford Motor Company). It was then brought back to Ford Motor Company before being sold to its first owners in February of 1966. It has been a well-loved and cared for "member of the family" since "new". You will note very few cosmetic or condition flaws considering its history of very low original mileage (33,400), not used during the winter months, and exceptional care by the mother and daughter as original owners. The overall condition is "unrestored original".

Options include the Cruisomatic Transmission, Rocker Panel Mouldings, AM Radio, Electric Wipers and Windshield Washer, Padded Dash, and Wire Wheel Covers.
