XP Falcon build sheets

 

Thanks to Adrian at the Ford Discovery Centre for the Falcon’s build details.

Ever wondered how rare that Squire was? Well, let me take you half way there. I have a copy of the Ford Production Sheets for 1965. This does not cover ’66, but I am hoping they will turn up.

In the mean time, let me tell that ’65 build brake down of models and options looked like this:
