Didn't Brock do a few Falcons at one point around the time of the EA?

Peter Brock modified EA series Falcon S and Ghias from 1988 to 1990, renaming them the B8. The engine modifications included extractors, special exhaust, blueprinted ignition, a dyno tune and a free-flow air intake. The engine power increased to a respectable 164.5 kW. Suspension-wise, the car received new springs, new shocks, uprated anti-roll bars, modified strut mounts and spring pads, and suspension bush tweaks. Externally, the car received 16” wheels, a lower body kit all round and a subtle spoiler. A later version called the SE was introduced with extra options.

I haven't read this thread bar the title, bit surely the Tickford FTE T3 TL50 is one of the rarest, if not the rarest? Only 3 ever made IRC.

it might have been said, but the p76 coupe, v8. very rare. only ten known left.
I saw a lime green one once parked at central Sydney train station, and the pictures don,t do it justice. it was very nice. http://www.leylandp76.com/general/force7/force7.html Last edited by Pis-ton broke; 03-07-2014 at 07:21 PM. |

HAHAHAHA.
I think only 2 XB GT Coupes were made with Lime Glaze. I like it myself. Probably wasnt that popular amongst Fords because Holdens were plenty in a similar colour. |
