  1. Can anyone help me identify when and where these were raced? And what (does it look like) was done to modify the fronts?

    This was said to be a 1969 racecar on ecomodder.com (aerodynamics subforum):

    Now those are cool. What 62 or so falcon?

    Looks like they just tilted the front sheet metal down as a whole unit then came back, split the fender and moved the lower section of the fender back in line with the lower body lines.

    Like sectioning the front of the body only and at an angle...

    Looks like Italian writings on the car.
    That might explain the Ferrari style front end. They are cool looking.
     
  4. Whichever year had the nearly flat gl*** rear window ("Tbird roof"); 62 or 63?

  5. I was thinking Central American, but now I made out "Fadecia" on the back, so Italian might be correct.

  6. I'd bet Argentina, as Ford continued to produce the early Falcon (and the Y-block) into the '80s down there. The language is probably Portuguese.

    Banco Rural is in Brazil. So I’m betting that South America is right.
     
  8. The TC in "Annan TC" might be for touring car racing.

    That's a Falcon F100 turismo that was raced by Alberto Beguerie in the Argentinian racing series Turismo Carretera.

  10. That's a Falcon gold mine. I'm not sure if these are all or mostly Falcons. Is the first one?
