Have read a lot of things in AFF, but this has to be the best story / articles.
Love hearing about what might of been. You wonder what the Falcon would of been called if Chrysler kept it & just the story of how it all came to be is a ripper.. Wonder if it is true that Ford trademarked the 'Falcon' 20min before Chrysler. |
