Gonna be a contender for Summernats grand champion with that attention to detail 🤯
I’m a Holden man but I must say well done on this killa lookin XB boys, such a tuff looking streeter
Beautifully presented. One of the very best coupes.
Thats a beautiful car. Stunning build.
That sexy as f/. Cameron. Im really picky with colours and thats bang on. The sight & sound of a midnight blue XB GT 351 teasing us at 170 with my bros VL turbo in summer of ‘87 then just disappearing like nothing else could is etched into memory forever. It was Fords Forever!.
This is Art.
1 of a kind ,Pure Ford !
Go cam
Beautiful car,
What a beast
as a holden fan, that is a damn cool ford!
Absolute filth! Love that so much
The car looks sick! I always said the XB coupe was the best looking car from Australia, I really love how you’ve done the interior. The only thing I would change is the transmission.
When I see a XA/B/C it always reminds me of the near V8 sounding rumble the 250 engine made at idle
Mad Max
With running no air filters, I hope you're prepared for frequent rebuilds.
I love Monaros, Toranas, XY GTHOs etc, but for me the XB coupe is the pinnacle of Aussie muscle cars. They just have a big and mean yet sexy presence...
Thats it. These and mustang fastbacks do it for me
I’m the same Holden fan but I love the XB coupe
How beautiful.
I'm an old XB fan, having owned a few sedans in my youth.
Congratulations to the team that built this car and to Cam for preserving one of the best looking beasts from the 70's.
UK here, that is bloody stunning and also the steering wheel is on the right side!!!
😍
I don't get Yanks...
Fangin' down the road in over a ton of metal, and they rekn take your best hand off the wheel to change gears (90%+ are right handed).
But we're all wrong having the wheel on the RHS...
Eedjits!!
It's an Australian made car dummy why would it be on the left? Dummy
As a die hard Holden man i'm happy to say this thing is incredible!
I fricking love old Aussie cars. This one is an absolute beauty.
Good on you Yuk, thanks for complimenting our designers
As a Holden Torana and VK commadore boy of yesteryear I always have a special little place for the XB Coupe and also the Aussie Charger
Hella awesome, the most beautiful XB Falcons, my favorite Falcon
What an absolute work of art!! You've gotta Let Eric Bana know about this beauty!
Wonder what he would say if Eric came up and said "hey i'll give you $500k for this"
@@anthonygenovese7578 just make sure you don't smash it up in the next Targa Tasmania 😂
@@anthonygenovese7578 probably no sale, it'd be worth more than that.
Well Cam, your a bloody rare commodity. You drive Supercars Sprint Cars NASCARS. Your not new age, your genuinely old school and unlike most of the drivers in Supercars you are not afraid to show your true allegiance. Possibly the best body shaped Australian Ford ever made. Then you made a rough diamond shine. Dam I wouldn't mind doing a flat out lap around Bathurst with you in that. So pleased for you. Congratulations on a top build
I'd argue the XA did it a little bit better, but nah. The Falcon coupe body really is something special, especially with fat rubber in the back
I’m a Holden man, but I’d have to agree with you.
Beautiful mate
*you're

Why be a parasite? Be happy for someone you grub
I may or may not have a stiffy after hearing this absolute gem fire up; she’s visually stunning, but an absolute aural orgasm!!! An XB Hardtop has always been my dream car, and hearing that Cam was building one a few years back had me excited; move over XBOSS, I’ve got a new favourite…….😍😍😍
Looks awesome. I hope we can get a proper onboard pov drive cam 💪
That is the world’s sexiest ford coupe……class …style….glamour….power…a credit to the builders ….its stories like these…..that bring back memories….its been nearly. 40 years and I still miss mine
Not a ford guy by any stretch, nor have I ever really been a fan mixing eras (modern running gear in old cars)… but this, this is amazing! A credit to young cam and everyone involved
Sweet holy Ford! What an absolute tease. I was checking the progress bar the whole time realising there's no way we'll see it out on the street. Please tell me the next video will drop soon...
Yeah oath wanna see it on the road
not enough power , not low enough , ugly wheels , terrible colour, slow driver.
that's enough about my car, this things epic !
😂@@DogFish-NZ
@@DogFish-NZ😂😂😂 great comment mate
Perfect Timing. I'm Holden but this is truly beautiful!
All XB's are good, some are better than others. Good work brother, i wish I still owned my XB GT351. Oh well that's life.
Eric Bana would love this!
I wonder if he ever rebuilt his?
@@azcarter4389 I think he said he would in "Love The Beast", but I dont know if he ever did.
edit: looks like he might have rebuilt it in 2014.
@@Heinrich_Von_Schnellfahrer Cool, I wonder what he did with it
No he wouldn’t it’s not original
@@frankrose4526 neither was he`s when he made a racecar out of it..
I don’t think I’ve ever been as jealous as I have over someone else’s car. Well done mate, that XB is awesome.
Cam, that's a build beyond your age. I love that you kept it old school but threw in the new. So so nice. There will be a few dirty old boys out there. Congrats
I have had exactly that car as my wish car in my head all my life, it really is the ducks guts Maxi
not enough power , not low enough , ugly wheels , terrible colour, slow driver.
that's enough about my car, this things epic !
I am a Holden fan but this coupe is an absolute work of art! Amazing job done by all involved in the build, exeptional.
2:50 finally a man's machine
..Manual 💪😎
This wouldn't be out of place at SEMA. Love it!
3, 6, 9 ..... Sacred geometry!
Cam, you’ve just got me as a fan. I’m team Lowndes, but as long as he is not driving, you’re my man…. What a car, what a project… You bloody legend!!!
You can't even begin to comprehend how jealous I am right now.
HATS OFF 🎩. Wow
Same Here !!!!
Had a XA back in 1986 and one of my favourite cars ive owned along with a WRX. By far the most beautiful Ford ever made in my opinion❤
Agree… XA 4 door the best
Two words Cam, Absolutely Beautiful.
Where's the skids n limiter you mentioned Cam 😅 wicked car mate 🤙
PR public relations
PR public roads
PR police retaliation
@@jdoe9518 pp private property 😊

I'm In Love !!!!! , Wow!...... Just Wow!......., Automotive perfection right there !!! :))))) , Good On ya Cam , & Half Ya bloody Luck !!!! , I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!! , I had a XC Panel Van Once, but like & idiot !!! I sold it long ago! :((( , wish like F !!! I still Had it !!, would give it the same treatment as Cam's XB , if if if ??? Sigh :(((((.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now that's a traditional 2-DOOR Aussie MUSCLE-CAR.
(Very similar body to the 1970 Ford Torino 429 Cobra-Jet)
That's not surprising, They probably;y share DNA .
Absolutely stunning car. Amazing.
Even Underneath this thing is Fing gorgeous & just a joy too behold :))))
$1 million dollar car! Just amazing
745 HP, 600FtPounds Of Torque and not a turbo charger/Supercharger to be seen !!!! :)
Wow man. The best XB falcon on the planet! Effing awsome Cam!
You'll be plugging those holes in the front spoiler with rubber grommets in no time... Awesome car, Congratulations..
Man,that is a 5☆ restraunt quality interior.Amazing work by all.Congratulationa.🥰🥰🥰...What a work of art.Absolute engineering master piece.
Beautiful car indeed , Wish I could just walk into the FPR engine room and grab a few spare parts lol ❤
How did you arrive at 369 cubes? Stroker 351 crank with an over bore?
A perfect example of the saying, "Aint NO school!...quite like OLD SCHOOL!!" 😎
What a friggin beautiful Muscle car build😍
- Kia kaha mate
Congrats Cam, its a Monster 😁 obviously insured with Shannons, looking forward to a YT vid of you driving it around Mt Panorama, that will go viral. Enjoy!
You have great taste! That is seriously a dream build in every sense. Gongrats to you, great taste amd finish
Absolutely mind blowing build. Every detail has been thought out and executed perfectly! Amazing!
But mate, don’t shy away from being an Aussie. Be proud to say coop-ay rather than coop.
We’re Aussies and we’re a bit different and we’re bloody proud of that!
Bloody Oath!!!!!!
Where's the driving footage after all that waffling on? Ripped off...
That is insane. My jaw is literally on the floor.
Hey Cam. Awesome! Great to see all four windows down. Looks insane.👌🖖👍
I seen it in Melbourne!! Bloody awesome car in person
Wow! What a stunning build!
The Best 👌 build on any XA , XB , XC FORD COUPE that l have seen . Perfection. Front end & rear 4 link suspension, air bags ect ect .
Would ❤ 2 view the Vehicle in Person.
Gr8 Build . Enjoy .
Thumbs 👍 up 2 the Builders as well 😅
I've always wanted to see vintage bodies with modern tech. Mental. Just awesome!!!!!
Good lord that's gorgeous! Dry sump, electric ps, insane interior, exterior and literally everything with it including that perfect metal work on the front all that with bags and air conditioning!
I’m a Holden man but this is absolutely wicked 👌
gross. took a classic car and turned it into something boring. that interior is a sin.
I'm not a ford guy but that is a gorgeous build.
Good choice of colour too. Every bit of it just looks awesome.
Not the biggest fan of the Alcantara interior if I had to knit pick. But it's practical and easy to live with and still looks great so it's hard not really something to complain about.
Amazing build and you’ve made it the way you love it, well done! Give me original bucket seats any day though 😊
Excellent stuff...so how much$$$$
Two Arms, Two Legs & three Kidneys !!!! LOL!!! , Name Ya Bloody Price !!!!!!!
at least it wasn't shipped off to the US and turned into a mad max interceptor.
Lost for words, this car is AWESOME i absolutely love it, i have a friend that has one in his shed but doesn’t have a spare 200-300k to make it look like this!
That's killer! From what I remember from Top Gear Aus driving a Supercar in Sydney, my biggest concern was getting enough cooling for day to day driving, but if they figured out how to get air conditioning working, then that was probably worked out already. You make sure to enjoy that beast
BEAUTIFUL❤ nice to see a worked N/A engine!!! That car gives me a chubby!!
LUCKY F😀😃😄😁R ❤
Up there with Adam le brese xc and XBOSS
Never been a ford man, but this thing is pure froth. World class build and world class bloke.
Hey cam. Your car came out beautifull mate. Love it. Hope you take it out on the weekends and not being a garage queen
I remember hearing on a podcast ages ago that Tim let him take a Supercars engine for his XB. so cool to finally see it.
Speaking as a Holden man - that is an amazingly beautiful machine, bravo to all involved.
Bloody hell. That's incredible
There's not an adjective I could use to do it credit.. you've created a true Aussie classic, 👍
😂 wt heck all of this and you didn’t even crank the engine! We wana hear what it sounds like
Don't even look at it!!
Beautiful Falcon.
Wonderful Cam, love to see you bring some Aussie history to life with added modern touches, I am sure this car will have a very special life and a memory for many people during its transition into future history…..
Where does the money come from at such a young age?
Professional race car driver.
Sells nose beers!?!
Absolutely stunning....WOW !!
What an incredible rebuild Cam Waters! It looks amazing
XR8 Supercar XB
🔥Great Build! 🤘😎
absolutely stunning!
Excellent video well done
what a work of art love it
Might need to consider an air filter?
Might need to consider an air lifter.
Mate those clevelands are the best.
I don't profess to be an expert on Ford engines but I'm pretty sure the Ford Supercar engine wasn't a Clevo. I'm happy to be corrected though.
Drooling in NZ! Yes a chev block fan too but man gotto admire this work boys!
Bloody awesome Cam. Need it outside in the sun so we can get a better look. We need to hear it. On the road. You need to find someone called Barry. So u can use Bisleys line from Mad Max. Kick er in the guts Barry. Hopefully ya can make it to the Hardtop Anniversary next March in Tassie.
Yeah ! This beast needs a movie made out of it/around it ! :)))), last of the V8s , she sucks Nitro........ :)
Lovely car, the X series coupes were the best, but from what you've done I'd call it a custom build in an XB body/front grill nothing else is XB. But great build.
Mad engineering.. what an awesome job.
