My Dad had 1964 Ford Falcon similar to the car in the middle; those are '65's. Awesome little vehicles.

That has to be the biggest 2 door car in history.

My grandfather had a 64 or 65 Falcon Ranchero in baby blue. Kind of like this one:



After both he and my grandmother passed away, Dad took it over. The gas tank was so rusted out that he replaced it with a boat tank and my older brothers drove it to school until somebody turned left in front of one of them.

I have fond memories of that car (though my brother who lost 5 teeth doesn't for very good reasons).

We got a red Falcon just like this in the early 80's and used it on the dairy farm to haul stuff. You had to shift in on the steering column "3 on the tree". 11-12 year old me learned to drive with that old Falcon.

Really love the mid-century modern look here, but I groan just thinking about getting in and out of that low blue chair the guy is sitting in.

At my age, those you just roll out of onto all fours and take it from there.

I'm still trying to figure out what's going on with the dude's hair.

This photo prompted the memory of a camper park that was on the beach at Gulf Shores, AL in the late 60s / early 70s. Spent a night crammed in one with about 10 other people on one of those freezing Spring break nights. Took me a minute to find a photo. I'm sure that spot is a condominium now.
