Ford Falcon Sprint
Description:
For Sale: Genuine 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint FIA Project
This is an opportunity to own a genuine Ford Falcon Sprint with true racing lineage and serious FIA potential. Originally imported to the UK by Alan Mann Racing—famed for their Ford touring cars—this Falcon eventually moved into private ownership and is now being transformed into a competitive, FIA-compliant race car. With recent progress under the care of Premier Motorsport, this Falcon Sprint is well-suited for historic racing series like CTCRC Pre-66 Touring Cars and prestigious events such as the Spa 6 Hours.
Race-Ready Enhancements and Restorations:
Since 2021, this Falcon has undergone a meticulous transformation, setting the stage for a competitive return to racing. Completed work includes:
• Full Underside Restoration: Complete strip-down and reinforcement for improved durability.
• Engine Bay Reinforcement: Crossmembers strengthened, plus race radiator and oil coolers
• Safety Features: FIA-spec Safety Devices roll cage fitted, preserving the original interior panels, along with harness mounts.
• Custom Dashboard: Redesigned dash with race gauges, switches, master cut-off, and GT40-style tachometer binnacle.
• Steering Upgrades: Quick-ratio steering box with a modified column, retaining the original wheel.
• Suspension & Braking: FIA-spec springs, NITRON shock absorbers newly rebuilt, Kelsey-Hayes front brakes with race discs and pads, anti-tramp bars, and brass bushings replacing spring shackles and front spring rocker
• Rear Axle and Differential: FIA-legal, fully rebuilt with spool diff, oil baffles, and 1-inch cylinders.
• Powertrain Enhancements: A race-ready 289 engine (0 miles), Richmond Super T10 gearbox (0 miles), and race flywheel with a sintered clutch.
Additional Details and Parts
The car also comes with a set of FIA-approved fiberglass panels (bonnet, boot lid, and doors) along with a full set of steel bumpers. Some final touches are required to complete the project, including wiring, interior fit-up, fire extinguisher installation, and fitting the new Nitron dampers. Progress is ongoing, so the price will adjust accordingly.
This is a factory-registered 1964 Falcon Sprint registered as a classic black on black, California import with rust-free structural components and a strong, authentic patina. The car’s paint is an older red paint job, giving it a period-correct look. While you may choose to repaint, we’ve left this decision open to suit your vision.
Own a Piece of Racing Legacy
With its connection to Alan Mann Racing—a name synonymous with Ford’s success in the 1960s touring car scene—this Falcon is more than just a project; it’s a tribute to an era of true racing grit.
