For sale is a beautifully presented XY GT Fairmont in the South African paint code Maize which is very close to Yellow Ochre with factory black vinyl roof and all original black trim. As per the second compliance plate located underneath the driver's seat, the car was originally factory automatic with power steering and has been professionally converted to a 4 speed top loader gearbox with factory 9" diff. The GT comes with the original owners log books and Ford owners manual both of which are super rare to find nowadays. Built right here in Australia, the XY GT Fairmonts were then assembled in South Africa and many have over the years made their way back home to Aussie GT enthusiasts who recognise these cars as genuine XY GTs and therefore more desirable as collectible cars than a Replica GT. With the same running gear as their Aussie cousins - a 4V 351 Cleveland V8 and either a FMX T-Bar 3 speed automatic gearbox or the 4 speed manual Top Loader, the GT Fairmont varied from the Aussie spec GT in the interior trim, the lack of the Superoo in the GT stripes that grace the car's flanks and the use of the chrome GT hubcaps in place of the 5 slot rims. Otherwise they were identical and make excellent buying when compared to the Aussie GT Falcon that now attract prices in excess of $250,000. This XY GT Fairmont was imported 10 years ago into Perth. The current owner of this GT Fairmont has added the GT 5 slot rims but otherwise the car is a very good documented and unmolested example of the GT Fairmont. The car comes with the original FMX automatic gearbox, shifter and the original GT chrome hubcaps. With full NSW registration the GTRINO number plates will go with the car for NSW buyers. The car is located in our NEW Mortdale, Sydney showroom. (Ref: 5725) AMCS will gladly arrange a video inspection/road test of the car using WhatsApp, and of course there is no issue with door to door freight delivery anywhere in Australia or New Zealand.
