The Ford Falcon (XC) is a full-size car that was produced by Ford producer Australia from 1976 to 1979. It was the third and last version of the third generation 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 39 years ago. Introduced in July 1976, the XC was the first model to comply with the new pollution rules specified under Australian Style Rule 27A. The response to the 1st of July 1976, mandatory anti-pollution laws and regulations (ADR 27A), was to redevelop the Falcon half a dozen cylinder engines with a cross-flow head for better efficiency.Visually, the XC Falcon was given a restyle treatment. The XC had an less aggressive nose area which incorporated two round headlights on Falcon models and two rectangular headlights on Fairmont models. Ford producer also addressed the eyesight problems of the XA and XB by heading to great expense and redesigning the rear door windows and installing an all-new dash and installing higher front seats. That was the last model Falcon to use cola bottle styling and was replaced with the XD Falcon in 1979.Total production of the XC range reached 171, 082 vehicles before the replacement of the XC by the XD Falcon in Drive 1979.Model rangeThe XC Falcon range of traveling vehicles consisted of 9 models:Falcon SedanFalcon WagonFalcon 500 SedanFalcon 500 WagonFalcon GS HardtopFairmont CarFairmont WagonFairmont Hard topFairmont 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 TruckFalcon EnergyFalcon 500 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 OF V8.
