    They were shorter than the U.S. versions (same rear overhang as the sedans). Also, this one appears to be a 63-64 Aussie Falcon Squire, and Aussie Falcons in those years still shared the front fenders with the U.S. built 60-61 Falcon. The last year of this body style (65) the Aussie Falcons used the 60-63 Mercury Comet front fenders. All of the Aussie Falcons after the first year of production, had their own unique grilles not shared with any U.S. models. Oh, and then there's the whole steering wheel on the wrong side thing too.
    I like it. Can I have that wagon?

    Even shorter than the North American versions? That's strange that they would even bother. Besides Perth, I always thought that they had plenty of room over there. Especially, since they drive road trains
