I need a daily driver that's good on gas and somthing I can understand mechanicly ( old and carbed ). I was looking through the want ads and found a few cars that looked appealing, a '73 Olds cutlass w/ 350 rocket, a '63 Falcon Futura w/ 6cyl, a '72 Dart w/ 6cyl and a '73 Thunderbird w/ 429. I figured that even though I liked the sounds of a 350 rocket or a 429, my wallet wouldn't like the gas bill so, that narrowed it down to the Falcon and the Dart. When I called about the Dart, a recording went " Im buesy, call back later " in a rude tone and that narrowed it down to the Falcon or keep looking. What do you guys think about a '63 Falcon Futura 4dr with an automatic? My dad said that when I went to look at it, to carefully check the A frame because old falcons used torsion bars and if the A frame was rusted too much, the torsion bar would strip and spin out and the car would have no front suspension, is this true?
