    Hey Count.... if you haven't seen the Eric Bana documentary "Love the Beast" it might be worth taking a look... some more Ford '74 Falcon goodness. ;)

    What a great first episode!
    I'm a '69 model fellow Aussie so seeing the stock version takes me back to my childhood when you'd see Falcons, Fairlanes, Monaros, Chargers & Kingswoods everywhere on the road. A time when the Australian car manufacturers (R.I.P.) were still passionate & delivered something that not only looked tough but had character.
    Congratulations on making the 1st episode Howard. You've done a killer job with the customisation & she sounds sweet 🇦🇺🤘

    I watched the video, brought back memories. I owned a 1973 2 door 351 XB GS. nine inch 2.75 diff, 2v heads, full instrumentation dash, FMX auto and drove it like a race car on the track and never put a scratch on it, Awesome car, but had rebuild the engine and gearbox after a while. It was a pleasure to have owned one.

    As you said Count the American influence in late sixties early seventies Falcons is evident as Aussie's loved there V8's , fast fwd to 2020 & sadly the locally produced V8's are gone as no longer do Ford or Holden ( GM )
    Build cars in Australia everything is imported although you can purchase a mustang & Camero they are the basic models not the high end spec & are expensive, this was an awesome episode as it brought back Many memories, definitely looking forward to the next !!

    I worked at the car shows on the gold coast for years for Ian directly who not only owned the shows but started the Friday night shows and music events at the GC Indy now the V8 supercars events and I believe I have a professional opinion from my years of experience. I've seen many cars but this is beautiful. She's heavy though. I've always loved the XA-XC Falcons. A side note, a friend of my brother-in-law is in an Australian band and owned a Peter Moffitt special. His son wrote it off. A tragedy as those cars are extremely rare.

    LOve these cars. I'm from Melbourne too and my father had a used car dealership in North Melbourne. As a kid I would sometimes go to work with him on a Saturday. He had a bronze coloured XB Falcon coupe like this one and it was show car quality (for the day). Had the biggest Mickey Thompson tyres on the rear I'd ever seen and beautiful all black velour interior. I remember they parked it out the front footpath (which was very wide) as their top car..and I spent many hours on one Saturday dreaming how cool it would be to have this car. Nowadays, XA-XC Falcon coupes are untouchable, even a project car.

    Love that you are into our Aussie muscle too... my ex had one of these in the factory purple, it was luckily one of the 351 phase 4's that got chucked in whatever was coming off the line with a V8 after the powers-that-be had a hissy fit and said no more 'cause they pissed 'emselves when the first lot were dynoed at ridiculous grunt...if you were lucky to cop one in whatever V8 option you bought, it was a hell of a ride...btw, he ended up with 3 of them over the years in different vehicles he was arsey enough to buy, the 2 door purple people eater, a late 60s Effy that had been rebuilt, and his "Legless Louie" (was on the cover of a Nev Nichols album, and the centrefold of a trucking magazine in the late 80s/early 90s) that he bought from a mate who built it...he doesn't have any of them now because he had (and still doesn't) no appreciation for the classics...
