that would be an AUSTRALIAN ford falcon! in addition to the mustang that is my ALL TIME FAVORITE automobile.

Yeah it looks a lot like the Falcon XB GT, better known as the Mad Max car. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]
They continued on into the late 70's and we got the MustangII. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/headscratch.gif[/img]

Cobra Coupe one of 400 numbered examples made in Australia in 1978 to these spec as requested by Edesl Ford

Didn't Edsel Ford died in 1943?
