A couple from the early 2000's, the Econovan, Explorer and F-Series as well as a Ford Commercial range from the 1990's.
The Econovan was made by Mazda, which it seems they still make their version to this day.

A couple of early 2000's magazines.
This "Ford Talkback" magazine was aimed at Ford employee's and dealers. This edition was from around the time the BA Falcon was released and features lots of juicy details. I also have a couple of FPV's Blueprint magazine. Engine Porn - Who remembers the DRIF6?

Thanks for sharing these, some bitter sweet memories there. Also your mention of the Melbourne Motor Show, something else that has gone along with local manufacturing. Miss the motor shows.

I was SO CLOSE to buying a Turbo early last year, just before the first of the Covid lockdowns took hold. From then on, the prices of Turbo's have been through the roof. I fear I have missed my opportunity to be honest. The Turbo is the only late model Falcon engine I have never owned or driven.
