Default Argentinian Falcon

I knew the American made the early Falcons, but never knew the Argentinians produced their own.

check how it evolved over 20 years - or didn't..

'The robust Ford Falcons became popular as black and yellow taxi cabs and white and blue police vehicles. They also had a more sinister connotation, with the dark green painted Falcons used by paramilitary government forces like the Argentine Anticommunist Alliance death squads of the 1970s and the secret police of the military junta.'
