1978 XC Fairmont - 4.9 Litre V8

The XC Falcon was the last of the all Aussie designed coke bottle styled Falcons that started with back the XA back in 1972. The GT was now gone and the model had been refined to include cleaner 6 and 8 cylinder engines to meet the new ADR rules.

As featured in a recent Unique Cars feature on Family cars, this stunning XC Fairmont is presented in as new condition throughout and has been maintained with meticulous care and attention to detail.

All original factory applied stickers and markings are all still in place.
