Summary

[edit]
Description

Mulberry. The XB Falcon was built from Sept 1973- July 1976. The XA got a facelift in 1973; the XB was introduced, it got a more pronounced nose due to the reworking of the bonnet. It also got a divided honeycomb grille, more conventional taillights and new bumpers. The GT got new hood scoops, the design reminiscent of the 1971-73 U.S. Mustang, 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. Engine; 351 Cleveland 1950 XB GT Sedans and 949 XB GT Hardtops were made, 59 Hardtops in Mulberry This car has most of the options available on an XB GT, including; 04 Protection Pack (Chrome Bumpers) 06 Power Steering 10 Windback Sunroof 16 Black Vinyl Roof 40 Air Conditioning 46 Power Windows
