1/18 Ford XR GT Falcon (Ivy Green)
The XR GT Falcon was released to the public in May 1967. The credibility of the XR was strengthened when it was selected by the New South Wales and Victorian police as their high speed pursuit vehicle. Bill Bourke, Ford Australias Managing Director at the time, saw the prototype of the XR Falcon V8 police special and decided to develop a production version. This new GT was developed at Ford's proving ground You Yang in North Melbourne by Ford engineers in conjunction with Harry Firth, a leading driver and race car preparer. Sales success was assured due to a win at Bathurst in 1967 by Harry Firth and Fred Gibson. The XR GT had well and truly proven itself as a vehicle that offered performance, comfort and safety amongst its features.
