Postby fordpatto » October 7th, 2016, 9:12 pm

The end of an era, with the closing of the ford pants today. no more falcons :-( :bye:
my thoughts go out to all the employees and suppliers who have lost there lively hoods.
and what a piss poor date to choose to do it, Bathurst weekend.
i'm a ford nut,i will always own a falcon. feeling a bit sad.
but go ford this weekend.
cheers brian.

Very sad.
I actually think it the timing is good, especially if a Falcon has a good result on Sunday

It's a very sad day, not only for our loved falcon but for Australian industry as a whole.

Sad day indeed. Heres a photo of all the falcons I've owned since obtaining my liscence. Fair to say I've been loyal to ford for the relatively short amount of time I've held a liscence
