Ford Falcon/Fairmont EA, EB, ED, EF, EL
By the time they were 25 years old, Falcons built during the 1960s were very much in demand and gaining value. It is therefore hard to rationalise the absolute lack of interest in preserving EA-EL models which are certainly no worse or less interesting than an XM or XW.

Among the Falcons built from 1989-98 are various XR6s which should generate interest however they have been ignored and are disappearing quickly while older, less practical cars thrive. Given the difficulty in finding any EB XR6 sedans, the $8000 being asked for one would seem reasonable.

Cheaper, faster and more involving are ED-EL XR6 sedans that cost $4000-7000 while the very scarce ED-EF XR6 wagon can reach $12,000. $8000 is sensible for an XH ute.
