WHAT AN IMPRESIVE! 1967 Ford Falcon XR Ute - Highly Detailed 383ci Cleveland Stroker Street Machine Now for sale from our Sydney Showroom

Now offered for sale is this exceptional 1967 Ford Falcon XR Ute, a highly detailed, professionally constructed and fully engineered street machine combining classic XR Falcon styling with serious Cleveland V8 performance.This is a genuine nut-and-bolt restoration and performance build, commenced more than 10 years ago. The body, paint and mini-tub work were professionally completed by a respected panel shop, with the current custodian being the owner and builder of the vehicle.

Finished in a custom Bronze Pearl, the XR Ute presents with an unmistakable street-machine attitude while retaining the usability and character of the iconic Falcon ute.

A GENUINE OWNER-BUILT STREET MACHINEWhat makes this XR particularly appealing is the level of involvement from the current custodian. He is the owner and builder of the vehicle, and the car has been developed, driven, maintained and cared for with an obvious level of pride and attention to detail.

The body and paint, including the mini-tub conversion, were professionally completed by a specialist panel shop, while the 652 HP Cleveland was built by Mansweto Racing.Importantly, this is not a fresh build that has simply been assembled for sale. The vehicle has covered approximately 17,000 miles since its original registration, has been driven extensively, and has been meticulously maintained along the way.

The engine has only approximately 2,000 kilometres since its recent full refresh, while the transmission and converter have similarly covered only around 2,000 kilometres since their respective work.

THE RESULTThis is an exceptional and comprehensively engineered XR Falcon Ute with genuine performance credentials, extensive mechanical upgrades and an enormous amount of detail throughout.With its professionally completed body and paint, mini-tubbed rear end, aggressive drag-style wheel package, fully engineered NSW specification and a 652 HP 383 Cleveland stroker, this is a serious street machine that looks every bit as tough as it drives.A car that has been built to be driven, driven to be enjoyed and cared for to an exceptional standard.A highly detailed, professionally constructed and genuinely street-tough XR Ute that needs to be seen and appreciated in person.
