Classic Carlectable 1/18 XY Ford Falson Phase 11 GT-Ho True Blue Die Cast
18811
Late in 1970, Ford replaced the XW range with the new XY range. As with the XW, a GT was also released. By the first half of 1971, a GT-HO, the Phase III, was released.
This GT-HO was a true supercar and with a top speed of over 140mph was the fastest four door sedan in the world at the time. Approximately 300 XY GT-HO Phase III Falcons were produced. This new XY had more subtle side striping than the XW, but it lacked none of the aggressive look people had come to expect. A functional, as well as decorative, air-cleaner assembly with a scoop protruding through a hole in the bonnet was standard.
Ultimately this scoop assembly would become known as a “shaker”.
The driving lights, bonnet pins, bonnet blackouts and red wall tyres fitted to five slot or the five star rims, enhanced the car’s appearance. The car was available in many colours and three trim colours, black, white and saddle.
As with the XW GT and the XY GT and previous GT-HOs, the Phase III had the top of the line interior with a centre console, a sports steering wheel and a sports dash with a 140mph speedometer and an 8000rpm tachometer.
The detailed front end features engraved headlights, spotlights and indicators, as well as the finely finished grille and bumper.
The Shaker airscoop protruding from the bonnet is finely detailed and realistic.
The 5 star Globe wheel rims look great together with the red wall road tyres.
The rear window venetian blind is a nice touch and was an option on the XY models.
Elaborate steering wheel and dash featuring full instrumentation and components.
The Cleveland engine has an outstanding level of detail including finely moulded hoses, tubing and fine graphics.
Superb chassis detail featuring working suspension and steering. The sump, air filter, swaybar, wheel rims, brake discs and components are all shown.
Intricate rear suspension with leaf springs includes bolt detail and the finned rear brake drums.
Item includes certificate with individual production number.
