As is customary at the Silver Springs show each year, we scour the grounds for a ride that just makes us stop in our tracks and think "yeah, that's how I'd have built it too" and award that owner our very own Editor's Choice award. This year Dennis Payette's '64 Falcon drop-top out of Zephyrhills, Florida, did the trick for us. Dennis' ride features an amazingly clean 5.0L EFI conversion under the hood sitting on a Mustang II crossmember. Backing the mildly modified 5.0L is a five-speed manual and classic Torque Thrust wheels with four-wheel disc brakes make the blue bird a joy to drive. Custom pin striping tops off the immaculate paint too.
