This is a styling proposal from 1968 for the upcoming compact Ford Maverick in the United States at the time, which was based on the North American Falcon platform. It's remarkable how much it looks like the XB series Australian Falcon, and has the XA-style nose ridge:

It's pretty amusing though, considering the XR8 next year will be reborn with the same spec engine as the FG GT, could you imagine being a HSV owner forking out all that money on a brand new GTS, then pulling up to the lights next to a FH XR8 and then sitting side by side all the way to 100 and beyond
Even more embarrasing would be the lower spec variants of the VF in HSV's stable getting whopped by a factory XR8.

Hahahaha spot on!

Would have been difficult to open that tin up with that opener, especially if you could hear an MG-42 barking in the distance.

You would have been better off to have enlisted in the Korean war instead. This dude lights up a 65 year-old smoke lol.
