Vehicle Description
The Ford Falcon was an automobile which was produced by the Ford
from 1960 to 1970 across three generations. It was a sales success
for Ford initially, outselling rival compacts from Chrysler and
Motors introduced at the same time. A redesign changed the Falcon's
looks for 1964. The new look was more squared-off, more modern, as
Ford pursued the youth market. Later in 1964, Ford's new offering
for that market was launched: the Ford Mustang, based heavily on
the Falcon's unitized frame design but with no compromises about
its youthful, fun intention. TV commercials now used the character
Hazel as well as the Peanuts cartoon characters. For the 1964 year,
Ford added a Sprint Package, which gave the Falcon the 260 V8, a
stiffer suspension, and a louder exhaust. Because the Mustang had
the same options that the Sprint had for only a small amount more,
the Sprint never caught on. Even with the addition of the 289 V8 in
late '64, the Sprint was overshadowed by the Mustang, and was
discontinued after 1965. The Mustang dealt Falcon sales in North
America a blow from which they would never recover.
