HI All,
I'm about to purchase my first XR falcon, and am interested in find out as much about the models and any specific details i can about specific models. I have owned many fords in the past, falcons, fairlanes, cortinas and my current beutty a 65 Mustang. Info on these old girls is relativley easy to find as it has been well documented in time. I hope somebody or many can point me in the right direction. Not sure if its clear what it is i'm looking for, ie, falcons for example, say GTs, model years and lines often had some special aditions like the RPO thing. Mustang also had special moments when strange things got fitted in the od factory. So, like this XR i'm looking at is a 2002 Series III Black AU ST, Tickford - all the bells and whistles for a 6 banga, spoiler kit, leather etc. How can i find more out about this model??? Boonie |

I know there are some specials out there.
A car club I was involved with afew years back. The president of the club owned a AU XR6 VCT Bathurst Special. I think from memory it was 270KW Special that Ford made with roller cam and afew other mods to trial as a 6Cylinder Bathurst car. I don't know the full story. Some other people in the club and in FF may know more about this car. It was a AU Series 1 Car white in Colour with large Tickford Wings up the side. Would be interesting to see if the car is still around. |
