To commemorate Fanshawe's 50th anniversary in 2017, more than 60 students and faculty from the College’s School of Transportation Technology and Apprenticeship spent over 2,000 hours restoring a 1967 Ford Falcon. Besides sharing the same production year and nickname as the College, the Ford Falcon was also produced nearby at the St. Thomas Assembly Plant. The team completed extensive body work, installed a new engine and up-to-date safety features, replaced the front and rear suspensions, rebuilt the transmission and gave the car a custom paint scheme.
