I'm not sold on the name though.....I would have thought FORD Marketing Department could've come up with something better...?. Do we know a release date...?

FPV 'fairmont' with either F6 or BOSS 290 engine. Wise move I reckon.Reminds me of that Galaxy 540 from the open day those years ago. That thing looked horn. Shame I can't find the pic - it's on the forum here somewheres...←If only it did look like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two other Force 7Vs are in the hands of a UK collector (UK collector sold his on Ebay to a New Zealand collector) and at the Birdwood Mill Museum in South Australia.The Force 7 coupé was announced in 1975 but never sold. There was to have been a base six-cylinder Force 7, a more powerful Force 7V with the V8 unit, and a range-topping Tour de Force. It was unique in that it had a large rear hatchback. It shared few body panels with the sedan. Edited 25/08/06 12:46 AM by 937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
