- Bought a buggered Rusted bullet riddled XY Falcon 500 for 2k
Fixed it up in carport in 20 weeks full time 7 days a week
Wanted this build to look old so I kept the original roof patina.
very nice mate, and the sound of the engine "Crickey"😂
@@barefootrestos
Yeah bro I dubbed a f1 sound over it 😂
Now that’s determination!
Well done.
@@ginakap7654
Hey thanks bro
Cheers
Yeah you just got to keep going till finished. The journey of 1000 miles starts with a single step ( my dad drummed this into me from a early age )
This is insane, very nice work!!
@@Emily1963eh thanks Emily
Why do you love XY’s so much
Share you story 👍☝️
Inspirational !!! Great work !!!
Hey thanks bud
Glad you enjoyed it.
I’m building a Xt Falcon at the minute then a XR GT tribute so subscribe to see those builds coming soon.
Also have you checked out my first build I finished last year
Black XT GT tribute
What build have you got on the go bro ?
Owned a factory XT GT what a magic car !!! Liked it more Than my XW 351. As it just seemed more balanced all round .@@rrusty71
Well done matey looks awesome
Thanks man cheers
What a Beauty, shame you didn’t drop a 351 instead of the 4.1 cc
@@absabsy6742
I left the motor that was in it when I got it
@@rrusty71 it’s good in Originality, but when you have a 351 emblem on the front fender, the viewers immediately think of a big bruty engine under the bonnet
@@absabsy6742
The 4.1 is a free score
I only ever wanted to build a lappa
Awesome video mate well
Done!!
@@Drew_peaballs_128 thanks mate
Love it mate, well done!!
@@banarcus thanks mate
Cheers 🍻
You must have been on long service leave to work 7 days a week. Congrats.
@@stableofspeed1217
Nah retired for 12 years bro
I thought I might as well create some nice things out of nothing instead of sitting on the couch all day.
Wish we could buy new panels for our resto project
What panels are you after for what model ?
@@rrusty71 Mark 3 Supra... Radiator support panels and inner FL guard
@@MitchellHargrave
You should be able to get those parts easy
It’s quarter panels that are rare at the moment
@@MitchellHargrave
Try second hand wreckers & eBay
Mate love your work - you're a man after my own heart. So, what's next?
@@nongbloke I’m currently doing up a XT shell to sell. It will be gapped up in etch primer. And also doing a XR GT tribute at the same time
Have you got any projects on the go bro ?
Dressing up a 2002 long wheel base high roof Sprinter campervan so it can be registered. Like yours, a bit of rust in her. Not as many of em for parts here, so some bits have come from the UK, Poland, even Lithuanian.
@@nongbloke
You might have to buy a big piece of sheet metal & get a wooden hammer & shape & bend & few patch repairs
@@rrusty71Yep, been doing exactly that for some of the smaller patches, but for the larger more complex sections, if you can get pressed panel pieces it’s a better finished job.
wow brother
Cheers bro
Glad you enjoyed the video
Check out my xt build I finished last year

You got any projects on the go bro ?
What did you like about the XY ?
Well done mate, but what happened to the big 351 clevo ?
@@tonyboseski4395
Nah it’s just my lappa car to go to the tip & tow the trailer.
I’m got my XT 351 Clevo if I want a V8 fix
If I put the v8 running gear in this the budget would of stretched out another 20-30 K
I’m only into this for 31k and it’s on the road.
Awesome work mate 👏 be taking it to any car shows? P.s wasn't a 303 😒😵😂
@@cochranemadecreations
Yep cars and coffee when it stops raining.
I’ll take my XT & XY
Also showing it at walliston car show 3 November
If not a 303 what u recon it was ?
Plenty of 22 dents & holes 🕳️
Went through 4 panels might have been more powerful ?
What do you recon it was if not 303 to make those big holes through 4 panels
Good work bloke! what'd you use to protect the underside?
@@nickmcarr617 anti rust coating
I also used black etch anti corrosive spray paint flat colour
You got any projects on the go bro ?
Door caps weren't that good factory , well done .
Thanks man
I didn’t do them as good as my last build
Last build I spent 2 days on 1 gap
Check out the video

People say that all the time. I guess it’s my fear of gaps when I worked on smashed BMW’s & Mercedes for 12 years in my career. The manager came out with fealer gauges to check every gap on your job. If it wasn’t even you’d have to re do.
