I got an email from Ford Merchandise today with the above heading, FPV Reloaded.
I wish Ford would "reload" the Falcon and give me the opportunity to buy a brand new XR6 Turbo Ute! https://fordmerchandise.com.au/produ...eid=c80e902d1b

Irony now is that they probably would've had great sales locally with the Aussie built cars now. But who could've predicted this scenario.

It's been stripped out and passed on to Pelegra I think. Or it's getting very close to it. The 2 sites have to be seperated in terms of electrical supply, water etc.
Ford have kept some of it for themselves for prototype builds and engineering purposes. |

These were recent images I came across that other day -
I don't know if I alone here, but I find those pics heartbreaking.

I enjoyed my time in euro Fords (only cars I bought new)
If there was a new turbo falcon, I'd buy it, no problemo. I meant barra turbo not some rubbish 4 banger/V6 So sad to see the pics of the place being torn apart.
