Hey guys.
Has anyone seen this magazine?? I've just received a copy from a friend inside Ford... who tells me that this was made for Ford internally to celebrate the 50years of Falcon... ![]() Wondered if anyone else has seen this, and any thoughts on it?? There is some really incredible photos taken at the proving grounds inside (i've tried to scan a couple to show you all)... ![]() ![]() I must say - I love the shot with all the cars together... and wish I had a better scan of the 'Muscle Cars' all together.... ![]() Cheers, Loftie

A special 50th anniversary 'pack' (which included that issue) was offered to all staff.

Perhaps that cover was the second option they had to choose from.
It would have been my only choice ![]()

I have the mainstream edition and it has been a fantastic read. Stellar effort by Wheels (except for the BA/EB mistake but meh).

That wouldn't have been cheap and they had nothing to gain by it. Big thumbs up to MB!!
