1978 Ford Falcon Cobra - Only 400 Made!

This is one of the rarest Falcons to run down a Ford assembly line. Its a 1978 Cobra, and only 400 were produced. The Falcon Cobra is a stout Australian muscle car, and the last of the two door hardtops. Although its an Aussie muscle car, it has an interesting American connection with the Ford family, and Edsel Ford II. The car featured here is #121 of 400.

My neighbour had one of these when I was 7, so 40 years ago. Looking back he had it going on, had this car, his wife was hot, 13 year old daughter was off the charts 😂 was good fun getting driven around Campbelltown in it.

They would have been a lot more collectable if they all had a 351 toploader and 9 inch

I had forgotten that Biante released a set of 300 cars with its own set of certificates for the New Zealand market. The regular release certificate shows 7860.

40 years ago I was working at kaikohe and that was one of the few times i saw one on the rod until i went to work in OZ where I have seen a handful in car shows etc. Was this the car from Kaikohe?
The other falcon special build was the Goss Special, even rarer.

They didn't have a top loader gearbox, Ford stopped production of the toploader in 1973, They had a Borg Warner single rail. Which the XC Fairmont GXL also had.

[@nhraandnascarfanatic5907]

Big, heavy, under powered, unreliable, overrated… yet such an icon. What am I missing..?

[@VernLeRoy1962]

Ford was not a very good company in 1978. It is Totally Sad they didn't produce these in Australia & in America.

[@dentes1185]

Ford is not a good company since a long time.
