Re: Ford to start reproducing AU Falcon

I don't see how this is possible. Not only is all the tooling gone but even Tier 1 suppliers like the one I worked for no longer exist (even the buildings have been demolished). So it will need to be rebuilt from scratch.
Then you have the problem of a 20 year old design which does not meet current emissions and crash test requirements.
And the AU was the most polarizing Falcon which got smacked by the Holden VT and VZ. So it is not a winner. Better chance of success building brand new XW and XY Falcons.
