And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Probably a 260 ci. in 62-3. I had a few early 60s Falcons.Early on the 289 was only the 4 bbl option until 64 when you could get it in 2 bbl and the 260 went away basically.
Thats a sweet hotrod. Remember when I was a little guy the big guys used that series of Ford Falcon's for rather fast street rods. They just looked mean and went like stink with V8 engines, racing tires, the works, must have had some pretty decent power - weight ratios.
So that is a South Australian numberplate I thought it was. I owned the standard 4 door six cylinder version of that in the late sixties. I was a teenager and wanted a nice big back seat.
An Aussie Ford Futura. I'll bet it has a 289 under the hood.
