The Ford Falcon, like other automotive badges such as the Capri and Maverick, has a complex history spanning different continents and eras.
Originating as one of Detroit’s first compact cars in the early 1960s, the North American Falcon contrasted sharply with its Australian counterpart, a full-size vehicle produced for over half a century.
Ford Argentina and even Ford’s van division also bore the Falcon name, creating a diverse lineage of cars under a single badge.
Among these, the Australian third-generation Falcon, produced between 1972 and 1979, holds a special place in the hearts of classic car enthusiasts worldwide.
A prime example is the virtual resurrection of the Australian Ford Falcon XB by artist Abimelec Arellano. Inspired by the car’s iconic status, fueled by its motorsport legacy and Mad Max fame, Arellano has crafted a digital masterpiece.
This isn’t simply a rendering; it’s a completely redesigned Falcon XB, devoid of its vintage charm and filled with contemporary features.
Blurring the boundaries between nostalgia and futurism, a powerful Shelby GT500 engine, LED lighting, and a restored-inspired design turn the iconic muscle vehicle into a potential showstopper.
