Lovely. I am an addict to overhauling watching cars like this brought back to life.

I would have one if the roads were wider, had a bigger garage and the wife never noticed my vice - V8's.

Part of the Falcon's beauty is that it's a very modestly-sized car. Way smaller than many of the bloated mid-size saloons now clogging up our roads & only about 15' long!

Quite sensible really.... ;)

Nice car ;)

There's a LOT of Yank influence in the styling of our 60's & 70's cars - like you say Cortinas, Ventoras, Consuls, Zephyrs...... the more you look, the more you see.

There were a couple of Falcons doing historic Saloon Car Racing last year.

We went up to Donnington Park just to see them.

The Falcon was used to prove the running gear of the Mustang in the year before its launch if I am not mistaken

Very Driveable on UK Roads

Best of luck with your sale

Heres another car with a Mustang V8

Even Rarer than a ZT 260
