This original Ford Australia document collection centres on the iconic XF Falcon range and offers a remarkable snapshot of Australian motoring culture during the mid-1980s through to the early 1990s. Included are the original Ford Falcon, Fairmont, Fairmont Ghia & Fairlane LTD Owner's Manual, warranty and maintenance service handbook, Eurovox radio operating instructions and warranty documentation, together with the scarce Guide To Broadmeadows Assembly Plant issued in January 1990. Housed within its original blue Melford Motors dealership folder from Elizabeth Street, Melbourne, the collection captures the complete ownership experience of an Australian-built Ford during one of the company's strongest local manufacturing eras.
The service handbook retains handwritten ownership and servicing entries, including references to Melbourne-area dealerships and maintenance history, adding genuine period provenance to the set. Particularly appealing is the inclusion of the Broadmeadows Assembly Plant guide, an illustrated booklet documenting Ford Australia's famous Victorian manufacturing complex where Falcons, Fairlanes, LTDs and Capris were assembled. Featuring assembly layouts, production processes, testing procedures and factory information, it provides fascinating insight into one of Australia's most significant automotive manufacturing facilities prior to the eventual closure of local production decades later.
Published by Ford Sales Company of Australia Limited and accompanied by original dealership material, this grouping represents an increasingly collectible piece of Australian automotive ephemera. Ideal for restorers, XF Falcon enthusiasts, Ford collectors and admirers of Australian manufacturing history, the set combines practical owner documentation with nostalgic dealership and factory memorabilia from the golden era of Broadmeadows-built Ford vehicles."
