AJ’s Car of the Day: 1963 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible

Car: Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible

Year: 1963

What makes it special: Produced for model years 1960 to 1970, Ford’s Falcon spanned three generations. It was available in two and four-door sedans, two- and four-door wagons, a two-door hardtop, convertible, paneled sedan delivery and Ranchero pick-up.

What made it famous: For the 1963 model year, Falcon had even more models available to buyers. Joining the line-up were a four-door Futura and Deluxe wagon, Futura convertible and Futura sports convertible models, and eventually the Sprint model was introduced later that year. Halfway through the 1963 model year the Fairlane’s 164hp, “Challenger” 260 cu in V8 became available for the Falcon.

Why I would want one: I am a fan of all things Ford Falcon. I want them all. All years, all styles.

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1965 AMC Rambler Marlin

Car: AMC Rambler Marlin

Year: 1965

What makes it special: AMC’s Rambler Marlin was a personal luxury car built for model years 1965 to 1967. A halo car for the company, it’s fastback roof design was taken from the 1964 Rambler Tarpon show car.

What made it famous: Standard on the Marlin were reclining front seats, and it was one for the first American cars with standard front disc brakes. Engine choices ranged from the 145hp, 232 inline-6 to the AMC-designed, 270hp, 327 cu in, 4-barrel V8. Transmission choices were a floor console automatic, or the “Twin-Stick” manual transmission with overdrive, and was backed by a “Twin-Grip” limited slip rear.

Why I would want one: I have wanted one of these for years. Love the fastback design and the 327 V8 with the Twin-Stick manual transmission. Ahead of it’s time.

Fun fact: Many people dispute the fact that the 1966 Dodge Charger bears striking body style resemblance to the 1965 Rambler Marlin.

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1963 Daimler Dart V8 SP-250

Car: Daimler Dart V8 SP-250

Year: 1963

What makes it special: Built for model years 1959 through 1964 by British manufacturer Daimler Company, the Daimler SP 250 was the last model launched before BSA sold the company off to Jaguar in 1960.

What made it famous: The Daimler Dart SP 250 was a fiberglass bodied roadster sports car equipped with 4-wheel disc brakes, and was powered by a 2.5 Liter, Hemi-Head V8. It was listed as a 2+2 model technically, but the rear passenger leg room was just about non-existent.

Why I would want one: It’s not cute by any means. It looks like a fish. But the Hemi-Head V8 makes me think it makes up in performance what it lacks in looks.

Fun fact: The Daimler Dart SP 250 was debuted at the 1959 NY Motor Show and was unofficially voted as the ugliest car at the show. Chrysler’s Dodge division threatened legal action if Daimler didn’t cease using the Dart name.
