Falcon-Knight

Falcon-Knight was a brand of automobile built in 1927 and 1928 by the Willys-Overland Company of Toledo, Ohio. A separate company, the Falcon Motor Corporation, was registered in Detroit, Michigan, and the cars were assembled in a former Garford Truck plant in Elyria, Ohio. The car was meant to sit in price between the Willys Whippet and the larger Willys-Knight range, at $1250, and it used a six-cylinder Knight sleeve valve engine; apart from the engine much of the car matched the Model 93A Whippet, with many parts interchangeable. A Model 12 with mainly cosmetic changes was announced in January 1928, and the last cars were made in March 1929, after which the plant made truck parts.
