xb falcon coupe

walkaround on my XB coupe (there seems to be lots of confusion arising from Mad Max / Road Warrior as to what kind of car was used - this is to show what an unmodified XB looks like..

Very nice to own a legend. Of course I would want to Mad Max the ride. Of all the movie cars, this would be my choice. A full blown MAD MAX car before it was stripped out. If I had the cash. I would buy one and ship it to the states and Buy all the goodies and have it made. Nothing, Nothing makes a statement like that car would at a local show. I know it would be hard to find one that wasn't a rust bucket and those bring big bucks. Thanks for sharing your ride.

@Champ1964 Cheers, mate, thanks for the kind comments! I've had quite a few over the years - back in the 80's they were a $500 car if you looked hard enough. I once bought a complete front, - nose cone, modified fenders, etc the whole lot for $50 and had like a white mad max looking car - I once drove it to the drive in to see mad max 2

@revzillo Cheers, dude! right this minute its in a red oxide primer - it was in cheapo grey primer over winter and a few little surface rust telltales started to show on the roof so I bare metalled it and have put on this thick coat of red oxide - once that sets hard (I'll give it a few months) I'll sand it back and chuck some more satin black on it - it just suits it. Where are you, in the US? There's a few starting to appear over there too but , like here, they are getting really hard to find

Also I love to draw cars and if you look on Flikr under revzart_2063 you can see a couple of illustrations I've done of my own version of a Ford Falcon GTXB
