Holman-Moody-modified V-8 Ford Falcons used in European rallies in the mid-1960s.




turns out that the little Falcon would make quite a name for itself at the famous Rally Monte Carlo. One of the drivers that Ford selected to pilot the Falcons was Bosse Ljungfeld, a Swedish driver known for his rallying skill. Although he would later be pushed back in the standings due to penalties, Ljungeld won all six of the timed stages at this event.





It must have been quite a challenge navigating one of these cars through the extremely tight corners. Especially considering the tire technology of the day.

Rush hour; intersection of Dearborn and Randolph in downtown Chicago; 1909.

I had a good friend who used to sell shirts at this very intersection back in the day. We lost touch though in the 20s.
One of these would be awesome to convert into a tour bus type deal and travel cross country in.
