Not much help with this Falcon. Welcome to BF, post 9 more replies and you can show pics of it.

Your Mom rocks!

Welcome to the forums. Based on the small seat tube decal, in conjunction with the serial number and what appears to be a Sugino Maxy crankset, I believe you have a circa 1975 model. In the future, please submit pictures that have been taken from the drive side, as being able to see the derailleurs and crankset chainring is a significant aid in identification.

Picture assist. Front wheel quick release is in 'open' position. Rear brake pads appear improperly set. Overall condition is only fair.
