Outstanding list of Coupe's. Great idea Monty.
And to think this is just the AFF Members. There must be many, many more that aren't on online. I know of 2 more XA Fairmont's & a XB GT in Melbourne that aren't online.

P.S. I'm in Melbourne. you got the VIC part.

That's a shame, it would have been the last time I took it down there, club rego's a bit limiting as to where I can go. The car's on ebay for sale atm. :( Looks like its gone....

Those GS stripes set just don't look right on any XC's.
And that one there spoils a great looking paint job.

Hey fellas, 1 thing I would like to see added to that list is the current status of each car, i.e. under resto, on the road, basket case etc etc

Interesting to see the ratio of runners to non runners/restos

When i bought it, it was stock as the day the original owner picked it up, with a genuine 61000 miles and owners hand books.
Except for the XE am/fm radio addition.

Changes i have made are;
2"twin exhaust
4 barrel inlet & 600 Holley
Original silver 12 slots & trims
front & rear overiders & GS/T fuel cap & ring
Pioneer head unit mounted in glovebox with 6" speakers in kick panels & 6"x9" mounted in repro parcel shelf with amp mounted underneath

NONE of the original parts/trim have been butchered, they are safely stored away.
As well as stockpiling spares for the future.
