"The Goon" wrapped up!
Updated: On Sept 09th, 2023.
"The Goon" was a 1961 Falcon 4 door project I built before I had a Youtube channel. I have since sold the car and the money from the sale was used to buy the Model A parts I used to start projects on youtube. Above is a picture of the car just before it sold.
The car started out as a Parts car purchase for my Ranchero project, but the car was pretty solid and after getting in touch with the previous owner to get a title, I decided I couldnt let it get parted out. So the build began!
Swapped in a 200Cid from a 75 Maverick, rebuilt the top end and installed goodies like a header and alternator she purred like a kitten.
Keeping the outside patina on the car, I decided I would restore the interior. Keeping with the green I decided on the name for the car- "The Goon". The Goon is a comic series about some tough guy criminals (Franky and the Goon)who beat up monsters and zombies. I used the logo on the trunk emblem (since the original was busted) and made some custom ZOMBIE door panels. I was really happy how they turned out. Finished off with a full stereo, The car was fun to drive.
