Metalcorp is using that part of the building now.

I wish I could find the original high quality version, but even still, this low res version still gives me goosebumps as I imagine all the Falcon's I have owned trundling their way down that line.

I took some 1080p video when I went on the final tours (still running machines) of the Broadmeadows factory. The videos are either on a server that has been running for the past 10 years or archive storage.
Would you be interested in my uploading them?

I found the videos, they’re from 2015.
I’ll try and find some time this week to download them and put them together to upload to YouTube.

Now if they could have done a U-tube vid of the last Aussie Ford V8 doing a gymkhana there on its last days before it was disassembled, like in the Ken Block vid's, now that would be a decent watch.
