A Sprint (one of eight) finished second overall in '64, behind Paddy Hopkirk.
EDIT NOTE: I thought this was one of the eight in '64 initially, but the grille appears to be wrong.

In 1967 two Finns entered in the rally with a '66 Barracuda.

Excellent story, getting his father's car back. I imagine the Barracuda was a surprise hit in much the same way as the Falcon for when it ran - light weight, a V8, and good enough tires and other tweaks to make up for being RWD and light in the rear (the Falcons had limited slip). The Comet Caliente was also somewhat successful in rally, but for some reason I can't seem to find any Darts of the era kitted for it.

Here's a Mustang from '65 (not unlike in A Man and a Woman )
