Ford Australia’s Broadmeadows Assembly Plant closure

With upcoming closure of the Ford Australia Assembly Plant in October of this year, Ford has announced that it will no longer be producing their much loved Australian Fords.

What does this mean for us here at FordPro Wreckers? Well it doesn’t change anything for us, there are many Fords still on the road and there will still be for many many years to come. Although Ford won’t be producing the cars anymore, we will still have access to many parts and damaged vehicles for us to be able to continue on strongly for years to come.

Ford originally stopped making one of their many Australian built cars back in 2007. That was the Ford Fairlane. Although they haven’t been produced for nearly 10 years now, we still have a large amount of Fairlane parts available.

Ford Performance Vehicles also closed down within the last few years, making the cars that are still on the road go up in value. But that didn’t change anything for that availability of the cars that we get in here for wrecking. We still regularly get in GT, GT-P, F6, GS and Super Pursuits. Making available any parts that are needed for the public to purchase from us to repair their FPV or just to upgrade their Falcon.

So with the closure of the assembly plant, comes the end of the Falcon range and the much loved Territory. The falcon has been serving Australia well since 1960 when the first one rolled off the assembly line and the Territory since 2004 when it became Ford Australias leading SUV in sales.

Ford Rangers are something that we are now new to wrecking here, so we will continue to wreck them out as they will still be sold here in Australia. With the closure of the plant comes new windows that have opened for new Ford models to come here to Australia including the Mustang and Everest.
