1970 Ford Falcon XW GTHO PHASE 2 ... (SOLD)

With specs including the 351 4V Cleveland, giant 750cfm Holley carburettor, twin ignition points, solid lifters, stronger conrods and near on 360hp running to the ground through the four-speed close ratio top-loader gearbox and a nine-inch Daytona diff the Phase 2 GTHO Falcon was nothing if not a full on race car. To qualify for racing CAMS required the manufacturer to build a minimum number of these cars to be sold to the public as road registered vehicles. As most were not bought by Mums and Dads to do the weekly shopping or to cart the family, most Phase 2s led a less than charmed existence.

Of course some have survived intact. Others, have had to be rescued from years of "enthusiastic driving". With perfect Phase 2s now selling for in excess of half a million dollars the opportunity to buy a less perfect example that can be driven the way Ford designed them to be driven is quite tempting.

For sale from our Sydney Showroom is this 1970 XW GTHO Phase 2 in Grecian Gold with Black trim. Believed to have been reshelled many years ago into a genuine GT Falcon body with factory wind back Golde sunroof, this rare and desirable GTHO Phase 2 features the original running gear including the matching numbers D block solid 351 4V Cleveland, factory long shaft top loader gearbox, Ph.2 HO tailshaft and 31 spline 3.5:1 9" LSD.
