1961 Ford Falcon (Australia)

Automobiles

The XK range was expanded in May 1961 with the addition of utility and panel van body styles, officially designated the Falcon utility and Falcon sedan delivery, and the station wagon added in November 1960 had a shorter rear overhang than the American version. Before long XK sales suffered from complaints about durability on rough outback roads, due chiefly to collapsing front ball joints. An optional 170 cubic inch engine was introduced late in the model's life.
