COMET CENTRAL

I had to replace some of the front end components to make it pass it's road worthy inspection. Upper and lower ball joints are easily obtained, inner lower control arm bushes also. What concerns me is that the pitman arms are as rare as rocking horse poop. Now I know that your pitman arms probably w...

Early Falcons and Comets are basically the same, correct? My 65 Aussie Falcon had been modified by the 2nd owner. I am the 4th. He didn't like the way the standard Falcon rolled about so he added front and rear sway bars. In fact he told me yesterday that you can add two sway bars to the front to ma...

WHAT ABOUT THE SHADE IN THE BACK WINDOW???? :shock: :shock: I just spoke to the 2nd owner of this vehicle ( I am now the fourth). He purchased it from an elderly couple about 25 years ago. He h...

I own an Aussie built '65 Falcon which in Falcon terms is probably very similar in specs to your '60 - '63 Falcons. The front end panels are basically '63 Comet. Your '64 Falcon took on a different shape that we didn't adopt until 1967. My steering wheel is white and has developed a few cracks near ...

Unlike in the USA, two door cars have never been popular in Australia. In the Falcon range during the 1960's they were only released in '64 (XM) to '66 ( XP). Falcons 2 doors were released once more in '72 up until '78. They too are quite rare. Therefore the XP 2 door is quite rare and commands a hi...

Greetings, although not a Comet owner I am going through a mid life crisis and just purchased a '66 Ford Falcon Fairmont. 200CI I6, Front discs, bucket seats and it was considered the most expensive luxurious model of that range. The Fairmont was introduced with this Falcon model in 1965. Over here ...
