Falcon History
|
The XR Falcon |
| An all new Falcon was launched in 1966. It was the XR, and
was a far cry from its predecessors. Again, it earned Falcon
the Wheels Car Of The Year award. The XR was both larger and
more upmarket and had the option of a new V8 across the range.
Ford dubbed it as the "Mustang Bred Falcon", but infact
the Mustang was built on the basis of this Falcon. It's styling
was ultra-modern with a long nose and short tail. In 1967, Ford
introduced the fabulous Falcon GT, based on the Fairmont, it
carried a 'High Performance' pursuit V8, but was only available
in one colour, GT gold. This vehicle created huge interest,
$3,890.00 bought you a 4 door sports car that no other manufacturer
retailed. |
