Summary

[edit]
Description

Copper Bronze. The XA got a facelift in 1973; the XB. It got colour keyed bumpers and a more recessed grille and the taillights were changed to a flatter look. The GT got different scoops on the bonnet, the GT badges were gone and replaced by GT351 decals on the guards and boot. Only a handful of early manual XB GTs had the imported 4V Cleveland that earlier GTs had, the rest were Australian built 2V engines which took either a 2 or 4 barrel carb. Along with new emission controls, meant the XB was not as fast as earlier GTs, but it did get 4 wheel disc brakes, now standard. The XB GT was a more refined tourer, rather than a road going race car. The XB struggled on the race track a bit due to the dominance of the Holden Torana. Built from Sept 73-July 76 Engine; 351 Cleveland 10 Hardtops made in Copper Bronze Total of 1950 Sedans and 949 Hardtops made
