The Ford Falcon’s legacy lives on after $231,000 was raised from auctioning the final saleable Falcon, Falcon Ute and Territory to fund the expansion or creation of hubs for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths (STEAM) programs Northern Bay College in Geelong and Hume Central Secondary College in Broadmeadows.
Ford also raised $122,000 from auctioning the Falcon XR6 Sprint No. 500 of 500 with proceeds (minus taxes) going to its longest-standing charity partner, Give Where You Live in Geelong.
