Summary

[edit]
Description

The XR Falcon was built from Sept 1966-March 1968. The XR was the 'Mustang bred' Falcon, completely new design with its long nose and short tail styling with a distinctive kick up at the back of the rear doors, known as the “Coke bottle” hip. It retained the traditional round Falcon tail lamps. Good news was a V8 and front disc brakes were now available, but the 2 door Hardtop was dropped As the V8 was now available, a performance model was introduced; the GT, which featured a high performance version of the 289 V8. The Sedan was available in Falcon, Falcon 500, Fairmont and GT The Wagon; Falcon, Falcon 500 and Fairmont The Utility in Falcon and Falcon 500 and Panel Van in just Falcon. The Falcon 500 got 2 speed wipers, courtesy lights, carpet. The Fairmont got bucket seats, console and a woodgrain dash. The GT got the Fairmont interior, plus extra instrumentation, sports steering wheel, 4 speed manual, black striping, black grille and full stainless steel wheel trims, all but a few GTs were gold. The XR GT won the Gallaher 500 in 1967 at Bathurst.
