The GT started life as a Limited Edition, but demand was so strong that
more GTs were built. The last XR was assembled in February of 1968. The
GTs future as a model in its own right was assured.
The launch of
the XT in March 1968 kept the Aussie muscle car alive. The XT was made
even more potent and attractive and was now available in a range of
colours, a step up from the XR that was only offered in GT Gold. New
colours for the XT included, Springtime Yellow, GT Silver, Polar White,
GT Gold, Candy Apple Red and Zircon Green Metallic. The XT interior was
only availiable in one colour, black.
The Falcon XT was to be Ford’s
answer to Holden’s two door coupe, the Monaro and the two would fight
it out on the Bathurst race track for superiority. This was the real
beginning of the Ford - Holden rivalry that still persists amongst the
manufacturers today.
Soft vinyl seats with woven fabric seat belts and finely moulded buckles add superb realism.
Amazing engine detail including etch metal hinges, excellent accelerator linkage detail and a tangle of pipe work, just like the original.
The boot opens to reveal the standard fuel tank with cover and a full size spare wheel.
Superb chassis detail with working suspension, swaybar and steering.
The tyres are soft rubber featuring the road tyre tread pattern.
The chassis also includes the etch metal Limited Edition production number plate to individually identify each model.
