TronSpec 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 Got to fix up and road test a 85 xf falcon with worked 351 cleveland v8. 4 speed manual. Huge gaurds with 16x10 wheels running huge tyres Had the same kit as the one in the picture but it's painted red with white racing stripes. The video is an example of what it was capable of easly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted January 18, 2007 Love the thread title "85 XF Falcon Dick Johnson Replica". Do you have any pictures of it mate? History knows that Dicky raced an XE Falcon in group 'C' specs ,then switched to a Zakspeed built Mustang with Greens Tuff colours for group 'A' [this car is now sitting in original condition in East Auckland for the last 15 years] The XF was never campaigned as a touring car as they never had a V8 homologated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The coon was a xf but it had a xe kit and wheels and sh*t on it. Not really a real replica just something someones put together Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
