Howdy from Down Under. MY 1967 Ford Fairmont.
 
HI Guys i have been lurking around here for a while and thought it was about time i put some thing up. This is an Australian Ford built in 1967 It is the same body shape as your 1966 Falcons. This one is actually a late 66 early 67 model. Has a lot of Mustang floor braces as well as the rear rails and such. I hop you like what i have done with it. I will put up some more details later today for you all. Thanks for looking.

How it started out.
