What Makes Mikes XB Ford Falcon GS Hardtop So SPECIAL?

Описание: On todays episode we get a look at what makes Mike XB Ford Falcon GS Hardtop so special. Mike always dreamed of owning an XB Ford Falcon GS Hardtop and his dream was realised when he brought the coupe about a year ago. The car was restored by a previous owner who Mike has since caught up with after meeting him at a car meet. It was good for rust as far as coupes go and it was restored from the ground up. It is painted in Tango Orange, its original colour. And the Globe wheels look great on this car.

Mike is a mechanic so since he has owned the car he has done some work on the engine. Originally a 302 car but it got changed out for a 351 Cleveland when the restoration was done. its a JG33 block from an XA GT with 4V heads, It was rebuilt to stock configuration. Standard bore, stock manifolds, stock air cleaner etc. Since owning the car Mike has put extractors on, put a lumpy roller cam in it and 650 DP Quick fuel carb. He was also able to paint it the correct Cleveland blue before re fitting it. Mike really wanted to keep it looking as original as he could. Behind that its got a Top loader gearbox and a 9 inch diff.

The interior was originally cloth but they have been changed for Vinyl seat covers and door trims. everything else is to original and presents immaculately.

Over all this car is awesome. It sounds great and cruises smooth and Mike has done just enough to pep it up without loosing its original appeal. Its bright orange paint and fat globe wheels give it a tough stance and real presence on the road. This car has had a flawless restoration and is tough at the same time. And it couldn't be in better hands to be looked after for years to come. Thanks for watching.
