Man I'm 5 mins and 30 seconds in and man I would of just thrown the thing in the bin at that point. Well done!
Awesome paint !
Really Nice Build Mark!
That come up awesome great work buddy . I had an XB Hardtop 5.8 / c10 auto , black in color back in the 90s . And the rust you had was pretty much the same i had to repair a little less . Mine too had a vinyl roof that had been remove prior to my purchase . I paid 1100 bucks and after clean up sold for 4500 bucks which back in the 90s was upper range price for these awesome machines . Do i regret selling it ? F--- yes .
That's absolutely mint. It's good to see some companies doing a job you paid them too.
Nice to see the older fords coming back to life , BEAUTIFUL COLOUR MATE .
My Dad and Mum had the Falcon in this model and we loved it as Kids. In the day before compulsory seat belts we used to take turns in laying on the back window ledge! It was a great towing car and has many fond memories. This car looks gr8 mate.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the video of the restoration of your Coupe. Looking forward to seeing more updates.
Cheers mate
fantastic paint job , the coupe will look magnificent.
I like how you kept the GS stripe. Loke the colour. They compliment each other real good.
Great video thanks beautiful colour love these coupes worth the effort
Well done. I stripped down my XB-GT coupe 10 years ago and hope to get back to it this winter. I'm interested to see where all the bits go back to. I've got nothing to reference it to here in NYC but I'm sure I'll get it back together with the help of guys like you who are posting their work. Thanks and God bless.
Thanks for watching and your kind words. Hoping to get another part posted soon, Covid Lockdowns are slowing the progress a little bit though. Let me know if you have any questions as to where bits go as this car has been apart for about 5 years too...
Hi, installing the stainless top window trims ( and removal of them) would be great. Thanks
I'm a Holden man but I love those xb falcon hardtops
Great colour, good to see you're keeping it as a GS :-)
Thanks, it looks even better in the sun 😊
Being a Ford Buff myself I once owned a XA Coupe many years ago 😊 can't wait 2c what this Coupe look like Once Finished Rebuild.
Thanks for watching, we aim to put out a new video each week as it progresses. XA coupes were really nice too.
Our metallic blue XB had white leather seats , very luxe comfy and pretty .
Awesome build so far. Aaahhhh rust. The more u dig the more u find. It is a bit like an iceberg. 1/8th above. The rest below. Love that blue. XA XB XC Hardtops rule.
Thanks for your comments. The rust repairs were pretty epic and this was one of the better shells. I think Apollo Blue really was one of Ford’s better colours.
Looking great, I'll be keen to watch the rest of the build :)
Nice job so far , Like to see as much of the rebuilb as u can film
Thanks for watching. We will aim to upload a new episode each week.
Fkn mint mate, Love these old cars. My XA, sadly caught fire many years ago. One day I may get another one....
The body looks sensational
It is arrow straight and a testament to the quality and workmanship of the panel shop.

Absolute quality work
looks like you got a pretty rust free car, ok some bangs. usually at their age lots of rust and bangs, nice work .she looks mint.
Love the work , looks awesome mate.
I wish my Panel beater did work like that
Well done
Well done very nice.
Great job
Looks amazing mate
Thank you
Lovely mark its me Zac
I would like to see the car with a 428 Cobra Jet but love the video keep up the good work
You do great work ! But, you did have some Florida State Gators theme going on there for a bit. Thumbs Up ! From Bradenton, Florida.
Mint👌
Just Awesome 👍🏻 how did he get the rear bar to fit like that?
Dare I ask what it all set you back? I have a 351 GS Coupe in my shed requiring a rebuild, tempting to sell it and buy something already done. I should qualify, I mean paint an panel.
Xb with Xa tail lights lol
Excellent result, what body shop did you use?
Hi and welcome to the channel. The 2nd body shop that did 95% of the work and without any headaches was Double Trouble Restorations
Best thing you can do for any car is remove the vinyl roof, unless you want a convertible
Awesome work!! Who did the panel work if you dont mind me asking!!
The Panel and Paint was done by Double Trouble Restorations
Well done. Subscribed. what colour is that?
It’s Apollo Blue, a factory XB colour. The stripes are silver dollar metallic. Thanks for watching 😊
Apollo Blue ??
Yes mate, it’s Apollo Blue. One of Ford’s best colours in my opinion. Thanks for watching 😊
@@machbadger1509 Yeah mate I have a XBGT Hardtop in Apollo Blue. One of the best.
Beyond economic restoration?
Arches and sills are nothing on a car that's nearly 50 years old.
Try that in the UK, bloody thing would have rotted to nothing
The narrator failed to come across as clever. Very annoying.
Not everybody gets to be an astronaut 😂. Thanks for watching.
That is a not so clever comment. 🤫🤫🤔🤔🤔
I’m not sure that that’s necessary to comment on that.
If you're not sure ask a grown-up.
@@machbadger1509 Fair enough. As a former teacher, can I suggest you write down a few points and elaborate on those points from the heart. Otherwise you seem to be doing a good job. I enjoyed watching the video.
