- Stunning 1961 Ford Falcon restomod from World of Wheels car show circuit. Beautifully done with 3030 autosport custom 3 piece wheels, a TCI front independent suspension with coilover shocks, modified crossmember, narrowed Ford 9" rear end with tri-link setup and 3 inch minitubs out back. Also a custom firewall and radiator core support for the 2.3 Ecoboost engine and BMW interooler.

Sweet.
I can't say it's exactly my cup of tea but it's quite well done and very straight and clean. I'd personally go with a fatter tire and lose that front air dam but for the most part, a nice little ride. Not unattractive.
At least it's a Ford engine if not the one I'd have chosen. I was afraid I was going to see some ridiculous rotary or 2JZ rice burner or worst of all, a bunch of batteries and 2 or 3 sewing machine motors.
If that had been the case then we'd have had no choice but to strap the owner into the seat and consign the f*cking thing, nice as it is otherwise, back to the foundry to start over.
Yes it is at least a Ford engine in a Ford car!
Looks like a Barra engine
I cant tell what kind of engine it has .
Ford 2.3 Ecoboost turbo four engine.
Check the description for info.
Shoe Horn in a V8 ??? They came from the factory with V8s...I used to do V8 swaps in a weekend...drive in..drive out ! disc brakes and all...302s are easy to come by and take a wide variety of transmissions its the easiest engine swap there is...period !!! and the Windsor is not much heavier than the original six...Windsor engines are easy to mod and go like hell...and are bullet proof !
The Ecoboost 4cyl turbo may be a little lighter, but yeah a V8 Windsor would fill in the engine bay and be able to be modded with parts aplenty, and options for transmissions.
It’s 2024. Get a better phone camera.
Another nice car ruined because of the stupid looking rims and tires. The rubber band tire look is stupid af.
