To post a photo use one of the many photo hosting sites like photobucket.
Then when you get the link code for the photo there is a tab at the top of the message bar that looks like a photo - click that and insert the link code for your photo.

Hope this helps.
Nice 64 - very clean looking.
I have a 65 2 doo hardtop that I am hot Rodding.
It is a work in progress.
If you need links to various sites that deal with Falcon parts - see my link forum on the Falcon main page.

Floorpans:
Auto Krafters and Dearborn Classics probably obtain their pans from the same source and are usually considered "Good". Don't know about the pans sold by suppliers on the west coast.

Problems some people are having is that the pans that fit the sedans/wagons don't fit the hardtops or verts, the floor pans for the hardtops and verts don't fit the sedans/wagons.

The "double firewall" on the hardtop confuses many people. Can't speak about the verts as I sold both 63 verts i had within a short time of purchased and therefore never looked into the firewall/floor pan situation.
