    That is really good work, well done. Many sleepless nights, late hours, and lots of cash into that. You took great care of attention to detail.

    Great Effort - Well done, good to see a Rhino restored to original, not mocked up as a falcon.

      ​@@classiccarhuntersa4465hey up mate it's strange how door cards on this SA Fairmont GT don't go all way up to the glass like they do on ozi Fairmont and GTs

  • @garyjones1549
    @garyjones1549 Před 3 lety

    Maybe a rebate for South African market of a U.S. falcon in Australia where they were made a gt phase 3 did 170mph with a 4 valve Cleveland your one sounds like a 2 valve Windsor a genuine phase 3 is worth 500k to 1. 5 m

    • @classiccarhuntersa4465
      @classiccarhuntersa4465  Před 3 lety +2

      I never said its a phase 3.
      Its a genuine XY GT, 4V Cleveland. No cleveland ever had 4 valves. The 2V cleveland and 4V cleveland denominations refer to the intake manifold and not the number of valves.
      The 2V cleveland was fitted to the XW GT.

    • @smiddysmidton8313
      @smiddysmidton8313 Před 2 lety

      "170mph with a 4 valve Cleveland" 170mph . A 4 valve cleveland.lmao I don't usually bother but you're an absolute numpty.
