Geez mate that is brilliant. Chrysler guy here,on my channel. I’m stoked that you’re keeping this a factory 6 car! As you say there are so so many that get turned into yet another replica GT so leaving this one original is amazing. Kudos to you sir.
Back in the mid eighties, I got told about an old Falcon for sale, out the back of a local pub. Turns out it was an XY sedan, factory 250 six, top loader 4 speed, drum brakes all round. White with a saddle interior, bucket seats, console etc. I paid $200 for it and drove her round unregistered for about six months, thought I was Allan Moffatt. I sold the uncracked dash pad and one guard, to a guy that had a GT. Sold the Top loader and bell housing to another guy. Finally my old man asked me to get rid of it, so I took it to the tip, rolling a very straight, virtually rust free, XY Falcon, missing a couple of bits, off the trailer. I mean, who wants a factory 4 speed six cylinder XY Falcon with 4 wheel drum brakes, right?🤔
Hi iam thinking of doing up a monza green xy falcon 500 factory 6 cylinder column auto, that i have located. But i need to find out if the owner wants to sell it. Ps it's great to see them go back to a original condition, not in to a replica gtho. Great job, cheers mate 👍 👌

🎉I love seeing the base models surviving, these are the ones we burnt our bums in as a kid, not one of the 10,000 GTs. Great work.
Im a GM fan but these are an iconic AUSSIE car
Awesome mate keep em alive🎉
Wow Darrren, a monumental effort with old school fab techniques for the restoration, very well done. Yes you a right too many GT's.
What a transformation Darren, plenty of work getting it to where it is now - fantastic work mate!
Big job. Alot of hours
You've done well she will be a keeper
