Have you ever given your car a name? This Falcon's name is "Bonnie Blue".
That was the nick name Rhett Butler gave his daughter in "Gone With The Wind".
Bonnie Blue was purchased in 1988. The left front fender and door had some damage.
The Falcon only had 38,000 miles showing on the odometer. She now has 110,000 miles.
This Falcon has been in 26 states going to FCA National and Regional meets.
She is sporting some 1963 Galaxie 500 Spinner hub caps.
These 14" hub caps are used on the 64/65 Falcon but the Galaxie has larger spinners.
She has won many awards. She is most proud of her "Longest Distance" awards.

2010 FCA Convention in Dearborn Michigan.
Blew out the muffler on the way home from the 2010 FCA National Meet in Dearborn Michigan. I was told by the people following us that a ball of flames came out from under the car as the muffler blew out. We thought a tire had blown but when we pulled over all tires were fine but it had a mean growl.
