1971 Ford Falcon GT XY $163,500:00

[csv8]

"A ONE of a kind, collector's item type Ford Falcon is up for sale in Rockhampton right now.
The specifically-built and painted classic 1971 Ford Falcon GT XY Manual is in near immaculate condition having done only 2000kms in two years.
The 46-year-old four-door sedan that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated, is available for inspection in Rockhampton suburb Kawana.
*
Described to have a couple of "bumps and bruises" that only a perfectionist would worry about, the classic car which was last modified in April, is priced at $163,500.
The owner, Kenneth, said it was for sale to "serious" buyers only.
"I am that confident on this car being a good buy that I would consider reimbursing an interested party that flew here to look with half their flight costs," he wrote.
"As long as they showed they were truly interested in the purchase by bringing with them a bank cheque in my name with the full amount agreed upon. This stops dreamers and tyre kickers.
"These cars come up rarely and when they do they are expensive. Even cars that have common colours are reaching this price and quite a bit more.
"I own this car outright and don't have to sell it so please no low ball offers serious buyers only."
Kenneth has listed the vehicle on www.carsales.com.au

Nice car but out of my league.

[ford71V8]

Love it.
Not sure that the white interior works with the Bronze Wine though

[Vesper Martini]

Very specific price to advertise at.

PS the old girls speedo is in Miles, so its done 111,000 kms. still low I guess.

Is the white interior factory?

[LUV DE COUPE]

Very nice!

[XY Chaser]

The odometer on these are 5 digits, so they roll back to zero at 99,999 miles or 160,000kms.
Even if its only been around once it's 164,000 miles, which makes it 260,000kms. Whenever I see adds for XY's and such saying how low the mileage is, I shake my head that people would believe it. If there's no paper trail through the books, servicing receipts and such like, the mileage on the odometer means diddley squat. They are 46 years old.

so why was it "modified" and what was modified ?

[FairmontGS]

I'd say it was the advertisement that was last modified?

[BLU-220]

[DJR-351]

Very nice indeed, although Red ones are better coz their faster...

[marty351]

Stick it on lpg, more affordable.

[Pepscobra]

What does it mean 'The specifically-built and painted classic'...?
It's a factory stock XY GT isn't it?

I love it, as I do all GT's, but what's extraordinary about this one?
