Ford Fairmont

1970 Ford Fairmont futura Description

The Fairmont was added to Ford's Australian lineup in September 1965 as part of the Falcon XP range.It was offered in sedan and station wagon body-styles, replacing the short-lived XP series Falcon Futura sedan and Falcon Squire wagon models. A 200 cubic-inch (3.3-litre) six-cylinder engine, optional on the XP Falcon, was standard on the Fairmont.

The Fairmont has been through many incarnations since then, each one aligned with the contemporary Falcon series but usually with a better grade of interior and different exterior lights, front grille and other features.

Australian Ford Fairmont sedans and wagons were exported to the United Kingdom. Though large compared to models in Ford's European range, they had a reputation for reliability.

This car was imported for a formerUSMarine during the USA panama Canal administration.
