New Delhi: On the occasion of 93rd Indian Air Force Day celebrations at the Hindon Air Base, a symbol of pride, power, and history made a dignified return — the 1967 Ford Staff Car, which once served as the, official vehicle of Air Chief Marshal Pratap Chandra Lal, graced the parade ground once more. In a rare tribute to the past, the current Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh decided to reach at the venue in this vintage car.

This iconic car — equipped with a 390 V-B engine, producing 315 BHP at 4600 RPM (8 Cylinder powerful Engine) — was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company, USA, and inducted into the Indian Air Force on 30th July, 1969.
