I just uploaded some pics of my 75 Falcon XB-GT for any of you interested in Aussie cars.

Nice looking Coupe, I've always liked XA-XC coupes. Was the BB conversion done down under? I seem to remember seeing this car in the flesh.

Cheers

Mike,
I brought the car over and then stripped it to a shell. It had a 351 in it when I got it.
All the work except for the paint was done by me. It was featured in Australian Muscle Car Magazine last year. Maybe that's where you may have seen it before.

That'll be where I've seen it.

Nice looking car Reed, it's a credit to your workmanship.

Cheers

Nice car! Is the extra scoop originally off another car?

How does it feel driving from the passenger's seat?!?

Thanks Craig,
The second scoop is from an 82 Mustang GT. I had to cut it open to make it functional.
It's not as weird as people think to drive RH on US roads. I just use the outside painted lane lines to sight with.
I've actually come to like it so much that my Daytona Coupe project will be RHD. I know they never made them like that, but I want to be a little different.
