Ford Falcon XB GT429 1975

There is no reserve price now. It's here to sell. Starting with a dead straight and original XB coupe, this car was rebuilt in the USA between 2000 and 2003 from the ground up at a cost of US$100,000. It has a genuine 1969 vintage Mustang 429 Cobra Jet engine, sitting in a strengthened front sub frame, freshly rebuilt to Super Cobra Jet specs with Performer RPM heads and intake manifold, 10.1 comp. Holley pistons and a 950 cfm Holley carb, exhaust gases exiting via Pacemaker headers and 60mm pipes, ~ making 550 horse @ 6300 rpm and 516 ft/lb torque @4500 rpm thru a ( just fully rebuilt ) modified C6 auto with a 2500 rpm stall B&M converter to a 9" diff with 3.7 gears. Wheels are American Racing 16x8 fronts with 245/45 and 17x11 rears with 335/35 sitting under stock guards and have '71 Mustang calipers with 11" cross drilled discs front and rear. It flew through low volume cert in NZ because of the meticulous build detail. I've owned it since importing it in 2006 and it has done only minimal miles in that time. It would take you two years and well over NZ$120,000 to replicate this car. It is like new in all respects. The flames etc are all stick-on and now removed. The plates "B" or "GT" are not included in the sale. It is very VERY reluctantly for sale. I've just added 4 photo's taken recently in Wellington. Having done a maximum of maybe 6000Km in the 8 years I've owned it, it's still in the same mint condition as it was when it arrived in NZ.
