That Ford looks like Sandy Mercer's. Is it an XB Falcon????

Wicked looking cars and the best Oz had to offer IMHO.

It is. I think it is a genuine GT as well. Edit: from the look of Dave's link, it isn't a GT.

Mine is an XA.

Phew, I thought I was going to get sternly corrected there.

Great looking cars from all angles

They can look very bad and 'clumsy' if fitted with the little 14inch rear wheels as from the factory, but much better with 10x15's on the back.

That sounds logical Sandy. I know how bad 14 inch wheels look to other members - especially when I revealed my car would be sitting on them.

The rear wheel arches were specifically designed for big tyres to go racing.

When the first hardtops rolled down the line for the top management to view, there was much embarrassment.

I can see why. Are those hood scoops functional?
