1964 Falcon LS powered Prostreet build
Hey gang, I picked up A new project today. 1964 Falcon. I will be building this car for my dad. It's already back halfed with a mustang II front. Will be a lightweight fun little LS car.

Really like those cars and it looks like you have a great start. How about a shot of the engine bay so we can all see what kind of room you don't have to work with, I run a '64 Nova and misery loves company.

I'm sure with the Mustang II swap there will be ample room since the shock towers are out of the way. Looks like a cool build! Is it going to be more of a drag car or just a cool pro-street cruiser?

Plenty of room! Haha! Deleting the shock towers really opens things up.
I'm a little concerned about the steering linkage... at least add a support bearing so it doesn't flop about on you.

Awesome lines on that. What size tire is on the back right now? I'm shooting for the same stance on my 67 Valiant. Funny enough, it looks pretty darn similar, and is getting a 403" LS2 and MII front end also.. Worn out black and grey primer must be popular

Looks like a lot of potential fun. One of the first things I would do is make sure the chassis and mounts are square with each other and the body.

Yes, I saw the uppers... WTF. Apparently they never planned on driving it in this state. I'm sure there is an entertaining story that probably involves large quantities of alcohol behind why the car has one tubular and one OEM control arm.

This project looks great. I will be following to see what headers you use... I'm running cast iron manifolds on a 6.0 and they barely tuck in the frame rails on my 68 mustang with a Mustang II front end conversion and sub frame.
