It was the first Falcon to be totally designed by Australians, as production of the Falcon in the US had ceased some 18 months earlier. The XA was the biggest Falcon yet, with the boldest styling, designed for wider appeal with its less aggressive look and creature comforts.Ford built 891 hardtops between July 1972 and September 1973, including the construction of 129 RPO83 coupes. The GT Specials - that’s their official title - were Regular Production Option 83 on Ford’s options list for Falcon GTs.The biggest change on the RPO83 to the normal GT was the fitting of a huge 780cfm (cubic feet per minute) four barrel Holley carburettor and (hidden away under the V-banks) fabricated exhaust extractors. These added 30-40bhp to the existing 300bhp for much improved performance. Other changes included a modified sump with additional baffles and a manual choke. They used most of the bolt-on engine components intended for the Phase IV GT-HO - the “Supercar” killed by political and public pressure before it went into production in 1972. The new model could run the quarter in the high 14s and had a top speed of around 140mph (225kph). Features The comprehensive front end features engraved headlights and indicators, as well as the finely moulded front grille with GT badge.Bathurst Globe alloy rims are an outstanding feature on this model together with the red wall tyres.Classic “Ironing Board” GT rear wing is faithfully reproduced adding to the aggressive styling of the XA.Boot includes finely moulded soft rubber mat that is removable, along with the jackbag and spare wheel with retaining cover.Interior includes XA sports steering wheel, full dash instrumentation and components, with drivers and passenger side rubber floor mats.The engine and surrounding bay have an outstanding level of detail including accurate graphics.The chassis detail continues with accurate representation of the sump, gearbox, engine underside and exhaust.Underside detail, including fuel tank and drivetrain, is a distinguishing feature of Classic Carlectables’ models.Item includes certificate with individual production number.READY TO SHIP IN STOCK NOW LIMITED EDITION AND COMES WITH CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY PLEASE LOOK AT PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK ***** ***** SCALE IS 1/18 CAR MADE BY --- CLASSIC CARLECTABLES NICE MODEL TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION ***** *****CAR SHOWN IS FROM CLASSICS ADVERTISING AND THE ONE YOU GET IS NEW IN BOX AND WILL BE PACKED WELL FOR POSTAGE PLEASE SEE PICTURE FOR MORE DETAILS AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASKSEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE TRUCKS INCLUDING KENWORTH -- MACK -- FORD -- HOLDEN -- DODGE -- PETERBILT -- FREIGHTLINER -- WESTERN STAR -- FORD -- SCANIA -- VOLVO -- CAT -- INTERNATIONAL -- MERCEDES BENZ -- DAF AND OTHERSALSO SEE MY AUCTIONS FOR MAKERS LIKE BIANTE --- CLASSIC CARLECTABLES -- M2 -- NORSCOT -- DCP -- SPECCAST -- HERPA -- SIKU -- MATCHBOX -- HOTWHEELS -- WALTHERS -- TON -- TONKIN-- ATHEARN -- HERPA -- DRAKE -- FIRST GEAR -- HIGHWAY REPLICAS -- GREENLIGHT -- BIANTE -- WSI AND MANY MOREEMAIL CONTACT MUST BE MADE WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE AND PAYMENT WITHIN 10 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSETHANK YOUIF YOU HAVE LESS THEN 5 FEEDBACK PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR YOUR BID WILL BE REMOVED BECAUSE OF TO MANY NEW NON PAYERS WHO MAKE IT HARD FOR GENUINE BUYERSI WILL COMBINE SHIPPING FOR EXTRA AUCTION WINS AND AS ALWAYS THE OPTION IS OFFERED FOR REGISTERED AND INSURED POSTAGE ON ALL MY AUCTIONSIF THERE IS ANY PROBLEM WITH YOUR ITEM WHEN IT ARRIVES PLEASE CONTACT ME.
