The Ford Falcon (XC) is a full-size car that was produced by Ford Australia from 1976 to 1979. It was the third and last iteration of the third era of this Australian-made model and also included the Ford Fairmont (XC)--the luxury-oriented version of the Falcon.OverviewThe XC series was a facelift of the XB Falcon, itself an upgrade of the XA Falcon which had entered production in 1972. Released in July 1976, the XC was the first model to comply with the new pollution rules specified under Australian Design and style Rule 27A. The response to the very first of Come july 1st 1976, mandatory anti-pollution laws and regulations (ADR 27A), was to redevelop the Falcon six cylinder engines with a cross-flow head for higher efficiency.Visually, the XC Falcon was given a restyle treatment. The XC had an less aggressive nose which incorporated two rounded headlights on Falcon models and two rectangular headlights on Fairmont models. Ford also addressed the perspective problems of the XA and XB by heading to great expense and redesigning the rear door windows and installing an all-new dash and putting in higher front seats. That was the last model Falcon to use pepsi bottle styling and was replaced with the XD Falcon in 1979.Total production of the XC range reached 171, 082 vehicles prior to the replacement of the XC by the XD Falcon in Mar 1979.Model rangeThe XC Falcon range of traveler vehicles consisted of nine models:Falcon SedanFalcon WagonFalcon 500 Four doorFalcon 500 WagonFalcon GS HardtopFairmont Four doorFairmont WagonFairmont HardtopFairmont GXL SedanThe Fairmont models were not badged or marketed as Falcons.The XC Falcon range of commercial vehicles comprised of five models:Falcon VanFalcon 500 VehicleFalcon PowerFalcon five-hundred UtilityFalcon Sundowner VehicleFairmont GXLUnique to the XC model was the GXL version of the Fairmont, Available in 4. 1L Straight 6, or 4. 9L Cleveland V8.
