The Ford XK Falcon is a car which was produced by Ford Australia between 1960 and 1962.
The first Falcon sold in Australia was the XK series, introduced in September 1960.
It was initially offered only as a four-door sedan, in both Falcon and Falcon Deluxe trim levels.
The XK was essentially a right hand drive version of the North American model, although local country dealers often included modifications such as heavy duty rear suspension (5 leaves) and larger 6.50 x 13 tyres.
Front seat belts were optional.
The steering was light and the ride surprisingly good, on well-paved roads.
Whereas the North American model used an 'economy' 3.10 to 1 rear axle ratio, the Australian Falcon was built with a 3.56 to 1 ratio which better complemented the torque characteristics of the engine.
It had a 38 ft (12 m) turning circle.
The station wagon, added to the range in November 1960, was shortened at the rear due to concern that the back of the car might scrape on rough roads and spoon drains. Also, as with the sedan, no 2-door model was offered.
