Brand Data

Company Name: Halladay Motor Car Co.

Place: Newark, Ohio

Country: United States

The Falcon was a motor vehicle produced by the Halladay Motor Car Company, based in Newark, Ohio. It was announced in December 1921 and made its public debut at New York City's Grand Central Palace in January 1922. Marketed as a lower-priced companion to the Halladay model, the Falcon was designed to appeal to consumers seeking a sporty yet affordable automobile.

The Falcon featured a streamlined body design mounted on a 115-inch (2,918 mm) wheelbase. It was equipped with wire wheels and individual aluminum step plates, contributing to its aesthetic appeal. The vehicle was powered by a 4-cylinder engine, which the company claimed was manufactured in-house. The initial price of the Falcon was set at $1,295.

Despite its promising introduction, the Falcon's production faced significant challenges. The Halladay Motor Car Company entered receivership shortly after the car was unveiled, casting doubt on whether any units were ever produced for sale. Additionally, the Falcon name was shared with another car produced in Lewistown, Pennsylvania, leading to confusion between the two models. It is likely that the two manufacturers were unaware of each other's existence.
