XB GT

Damon’s XB is a genuine GT Falcon, and, more interestingly, it came to the U.K. brand new. We are hoping that by using the information from the data plate on this car, specifically the VIN, we can pass it on to Ford Australia’s historian, and he can maybe find out if there was anything special about the U.K. exported cars. Working backwards from that, we may be able to find out how many Australian Fords came here, and of what model and bodystyle.

See here.

Damon’s car is fitted with the 351ci Cleveland V8, FMX automatic gearbox and four wheel disk brakes. You can also see from the photos that it has Globe alloy wheels and a white interior.

As you can see from this picture, Damon’s car was originally Mulberry metallic, making it one of the two Mulberry metallic with beige vinyl roofs and white with black cloth insert interior GT’s that came to the U.K.
