Classic Carlectables 18762 1/18 Ford XY Falcon Phase III GTHO 50th Anniversary Gold Livery
The Ford XY Falcon, since its introduction in late 1970, has always been an extremely popular choice and platform for car enthusiasts to customize and show. Classic Carlectables have produced this stunning “Customised” Ford XY Falcon Phase III GT-HO diecast model car.
Acclaimed as Australia’s ultimate muscle car, the 1971 Ford XY Falcon Phase III GT-HO set a new standard in high performance on the road and race track. Legendary amongst the Ford faithful, Phase III is also one of the rarest with only 300 ever built. Late in 1970, Ford replaced the XW range with the new XY range. By the first half of 1971 at GT-HO, the Phase III, was released. This GT-HO was a true supercar and with a top speed of over 140mph was the fastest four-door sedan in the world at the time. The new XY lacked none of the aggressive look people had come to expect. A functional, as well as decorative, air-cleaner assembly with a scoop protruding through a hole in the bonnet, was standard. Ultimately this scoop assembly would become known as a ‘shaker’. The XY was such a beautifully built car, with awesome power and handling.
