It represented a significant evolution to meet new Australian Design Rules (ADR) specifically ADR27A which regulated emissions standards.To comply with these new regulations:Engine compression ratios were reduced.Engines were fitted with exhaust gas recirculation valves and positive crankcase ventilation systems.Ford introduced the crossflow cylinder head for six-cylinder engines offering larger valves to offset power losses.While quoted power outputs appeared lower this was due to a shift to DIN methodology for power measurement which accounted for real-world conditions by measuring power as installed in the car including cooling charging and exhaust systems.Design and FeaturesThe XC Falcon’s styling softened the aggressive look of its predecessors with features including:A redesigned nose: Round headlights for Falcon models and rectangular ones for Fairmont models.Improved visibility: Redesigned rear doors (first seen on the ZH Fairlane in May 1976) eliminated the "coke bottle" styling of the XA and XB.Enhanced interior: A lower dashboard new crash pad and higher front seats for better driver comfort and visibility.The XC Hardtop was also the last two-door Falcon model produced in Australia marking the end of an era.Production MilestoneThe XC Falcon range saw a total production of 171 082 vehicles before being replaced by the XD Falcon in March 1979.Why Choose This Falcon?This car represents an era of Australian motoring history and this particular example is unmolested and 100% original.
