1971 XY GTHO Falcon Phase 3
Those were the days! When racers like Moffat, Gibson, Carter, French and Goss would drive a GTHO at Bathurst flat out down Conrod at 150mph and it was exactly the same as the one you could buy and drive to the shops. Just knowing that and blipping the accelerator while parked in your driveway would make you feel like the King of the Road in the King of all Aussie cars!
For sale is this one of one build Frosted Pewter GTHO - a past GT Nationals winner and a genuine matching numbers car that has etched itself into Aussie GT folklore as the 'Silver Ghost' due to its original owner's exploits in and around Mildura, country VIC with this powerful beast.
One of only six Phase 3s built in Frosted Pewter Metallic, this car has been faithfully restored by renowned restorer Frank Portelli of Melbourne and lovingly cared for by subsequent owners. And rare, one of only 50 factory long shaft top loader and 31 spline 3.5 9" diff cars built and one of one based on the exact build specifications.
It is without doubt amongst the top examples of this most revered Aussie motoring icon. Originally sold from Mortimer Ford in Mildura Victoria, with full known documented history, including ownership by the late Trevor Jenkins, past President of the Falcon GT Club of Australia.
Adelaide GT Nationals runner up, nil accidents, Log books, day one original VIC number plates and restoration references, this example of the XY GTHO is as good as it gets. Get one of these beauties now before they turn 50 and everyone realises how important these race bred street cars really are. In our Kingsgrove, Sydney showroom for your private inspection.

Terms of sale
Vehicles offered for sale through AMCS are the responsibility of the Owner / Seller. AMCS acts as the Seller's agent and relies fully on the information provided by the Seller of the vehicle in the advertising and sale of each vehicle. AMCS takes no responsibility for the accuracy or veracity of the information provided by the Seller.
When a Buyer wishes to speak to the owner or inspect a vehicle listed for sale on the AMCS web site, AMCS will request a copy of the potential buyers driver's license or a business card along with an email address and phone number. This is provided to the seller as confirmation of the legitimacy of the buyer and the seller is then asked to contact the potential buyer to discuss the car and set up an inspection if required.
The Buyer must make his own enquiries and inspections regarding the condition, authenticity and veracity of the vehicle and any statements made by the Seller, and satisfy themselves in all aspects prior to purchasing the car from the Seller. The Buyer understands there is no warranty or guarantee offered by either the Seller or AMCS.
If upon inspection the Buyer is not satisfied with the car for any reason and does not wish to proceed with the purchase the owner is advised and any personal details are deleted from AMCS records.
If the Buyer is satisfied with the car and a price is agreed to with the Seller a formal tax invoice is prepared by AMCS and sent to the Buyer for payment to the AMCS audited Trust Account. AMCS also receives a formal Bill of Sale from the owner stating the car is free of encumbrance and noting banking details for the transaction. Once AMCS receives the total payment cleared into its trust account a transfer is then made to the Seller.
AMCS receives a fee of 7.5% (incl. GST) of the sale price for assisting the Seller to sell the vehicle. There is no fee or Buyer's premium charged to the Buyer.
