Nothing like the sound of a clevo ..beautiful
Bill, thank you for not putting completely inappropriate period incorrect wheels on the car. 👍
and thanks for spraying that subframe red and making it a quarter miler instead of a Grand Tourer
Heard the V8 5 seconds in and fell in love
Love those XA, XB, XC Fords. There’s nothing quiet like them.
Love it. Aesthetically stock-standard, mechanically a hot streeter. Love the look and sound the owner definitely has the right idea on how to treat these vehicles!
That is a gorgeous car Bill. And mate we buy and drive these old cars because we love how they feel and sound when we drive them, tell me I'm wrong. Awesome car man.
Don't we buy them because Modern cars weren't what you wanted.
Its too bad the 351 Cleveland got mothballed by Ford so early! After 1973 it was gone! By the way I am American and one of the first times I saw a Falcon from the land down under was in one of the Mad Maxx movies! I remember trying to figure out what kind of Ford it was because it had Mustang looking hood scoops but the body was different, totally cool and I wanted one!
We kept making them for another 10 years, they were pretty common here.
Top job..!!!
Magic and I absolutely agree the XA was the toughest looking thing ever to come out of a Ford factory.....
If that was my car the only change I would make is paint out the red suspension crossmembers you can see from the front underneath to make it all black but that would be it.....
Unfortunately that exactly the way they were built from the factory, in most cases the front spoiler hides it. I agree it looks odd but intentional we oversprayed under the car like it would have been done.
That XA is a beauty 😍 👌 ✨️
Love those teardrops. Looked awesome in my tc cortina.
Love the Falcon. Especially with the 8track radio omg 😍. I'd love to build a 351 ute.
Good on you dude well done
Try to find some old blokes with old cars. I love hearing the random stories they had.
Bill it's a credit to you,love the car and clip.enjoy.
XA 4dr GT Best looking Oz car EVER

True to the car as possible......408

Bill, want to rebuild the 351 out of my XBGT to the same specs? Cars got all the fruit, engine should too!
All the guys over 50 be wishing they had held onto their falcon gt, they worth a fortune
Shes frikkin tuff
Thanks to Baltimore we will get back our own cars.
That sump, if factory original, is from one of those 54h bodies
It is so satisfying to know that there is another self educated ( as we both know that the dealer network did not ever perform in the staff education on this particular production parts list variation .) and passionately versed in variations between 38's , and the 39 cars .
Nice can you give me a build sheet thks im in America
and how much did you stick into it ?
any phase IV parts?
660 Horsepower with a factory mechanical fuel pump and 3/8 Fuel line ? Hmmm
Great car, had one once and loved it, yep stolen
The car the government banned cos it was too dangerous! Up yours GMH
Yup, life is too short to drive boring cars!
Can’t affor
Awesome FALCON mate. Damn I miss those cars. Lived in Sydney all thru the 90s. Had a couple of real nice TORANAS and a few boys had some sweet falcons. The Friday nite cruises and eastern creek on the Wednesday nights. Some great cars and great memories. Cars in Ireland are junk. Can't beat Aussie muscle. Best that was ever made. 💪👍
American muscle is king Dude.. Nothing even comes close.
@@michaelparadisis4076 Ah I beg to differ man. The Aussie muscle cars ain't no slouch. Do yourself a favour and checkout the XYGT HO FALCON. Or the HG MONARO. And the ultimate LX TORANA A9X Hatchback. Give Any yank a run for its money. Smaller lighter and faster. Better suspension and brakes. And don't forget Mad Max and his XBGT FALCON COUPE. And we both love and respect each other's cars. The 68 Yenko camaro for me is the ultimate American muscle car. 😎💪💪
@@killirl32 I own a big block 70 SS Chevelle and a Falcon XA GT. Aussie muscle is cool however most have too many doors. An XY GT looks hideous compared to American muscle. HK-T Monaro looks insane and I believe the best Aussie muscle. Looks and prowess. 4v Clevo In HO’s was a fabulous engine. Understandably so American muscle has so much variety-two door is the only way. Anything other is a tarted up family car. 68 is my favourite Camaro. You’re right about the Yenko.
