    Not for much longer . Was meant to have finished by now but for employment reasons it's still being built ! USA V6 will be in the falcon soon . Oh and the V6 in the Commodores is as old as the 186 Just like the chook tin motors . They have been dressed up a few times now

    Didn't Ford recently do a back flip on the V6 and decide to continue building engines in Geelong?
