1974 Ford Falcon XB GT Sedan ... (SOLD)

Concours restored One-of-One XB GT Falcon in Emerald Fire with Chamois trim, now for sale in our Sydney Showroom.

Painstakingly restored by the current owner to the highest level over the past 15 years. It is rare to find such a high quality car meticulously restored without regard to cost or time.

Purchased by the current owner in 2008, the car had been in storage from the late 1990s and was in good original condition with nothing missing from day one. The current owner then took on the project of restoring the GT back to showroom condition. It was stripped to a bare shell, mounted onto a rotisserie and all repairs were done in metal before the car was then professionally repainted in 2 pack Emerald Fire. The car was painted in two stages, carefully gapped and assembled with a huge amount of care. This was to be a keeper and treated that way.

At the same time the matching numbers 351 2V Cleveland was sent to Wilkins Performance Engines in Seven Hills, NSW and fully rebuilt with hydraulic cam, Yella Terra roller rockers, 302 rods, Hypertec pistons, 10.9:1 compression, Holley 750DP, Pacemaker extractors ceramic coated, Edelbrock Performer manifold, high volume sump, mild head porting and electronic ignition.

The car has been fitted with a 4 speed Top Loader gearbox (comes with the original FMX gearbox, driveshaft, shifter, selector, pedal etc.) through to the factory 9" with 3.5:1 gears. The car has been driven approximately 2,172 miles since the restoration was completed.

The interior has been fully retrimmed in factory Chamois by Muscle Car Trimmers of Queensland and the GT features new carpets, hood lining, door cards, restored seat belts and buckles, centre consul, gauges, dash, switches, steering wheel and crash pad.

At the time of the restoration the owner fitted integrated factory air conditioning which works perfectly. The car also has factory power steering. The owner has sourced a genuine factory radio/cassette player and this was also installed at the time of restoration with two speakers in the kick panels and a factory fader.

The GT comes with photos of the restoration with a receipt file, verification letter from Ford and an ACCHS report. The ACCHS report notes that this GT is one of 1,929 XB GT Falcons built, one of 85 in the Emerald Fire paint colour, one of only 20 with the same paint and trim combination and One-Of-One with the options selected. The car was originally sold through Thompson Ford, Parramatta, NSW.

The underside of the car is detailed to concourse show condition with all correct stampings, paint markings, correct shock absorber paint colouring and all nuts and bolts have been anodised. The car is riding on 4 genuine original XB 12 slots with original skull caps with red wall tyres and there is an original spare, original tools, tool bag and new rubber boot matt.

The car comes with the original air cleaner, two sets of keys and Thompson for Ford number plate frames. The GT is also fitted with factory bumper over riders and front spoiler.

The GT is a multiple trophy winner and these trophies will come with the car. The car has won the 2015 NSW Muscle Car Association Concourse Day Members Choice, 2017 1st Ford Restored class and 2019 2nd Ford Restored class.
