    I'll take a guess at it

    The only thing that I can think of is a modified Aussie spec Ford Falcon. That's all I can think of.

    Its an FPV Galaxie 540. for those 99% of you confused its a BA Fairlane thats been modified by FPV. normally there isnt the excessive chrome, bird emblem on the bonnet, bulge in the bonnet or quad exhaust pipes. it was on show at Ford Australia's recent All Ford Day

    that threw me off, because i didn't recognize the front bodywork and the chrome.

    its still highly Falcon based, with the BA Fairlane taking the highest % of Falcon parts since the original ZA.

    Also if you look close enough, there aren't any Ford Blue Oval badges, theyre all the FPV eagle badges (i wouldnt be surprised if the birds actually a falcon to link back to the base car)
