1973 XA GT Falcon RPO83
A very special RPO 83 Falcon GT. In immaculate condition. All matching numbers. Build sequence follows Fred Gibson's and Alan Moffat's race cars. Opportunity!
Specifications:
We all know there was only ever one true Phase IV GTHO - and none of us are ever going to get a chance to own it. But here?s an RPO83 that really does represent what a ?normal? Phase IV in basic form would have been had they ever reached production - and it came that way in 1973.
And it is not one of those race-modified ?72 XA GT?s that people like to call a Phase IV.
Genuine RPO83 with Ford Vehicle History Extract, Ford verification letter, previous owner correspondence, full photo history, written independent Valuations (old), written proof of relationship to actual race cars of 1973.
Original matching solid 4V engine, D1ZX rods, 4-bolt mains, 31-spline box, 31-spline nodular diff, Phase IV sump, clutch line, radiator, fan, carburettor, extractors, dual-point distributor, etc. 42-gallon race tank (originally had large tank, but went ?missing?). Also had roll-cage, but owner elected to not put it in during restoration.

Terms of sale
Vehicles offered for sale through AMCS are the responsibility of the Owner / Seller. AMCS acts as the Seller's agent and relies fully on the information provided by the Seller of the vehicle in the advertising and sale of each vehicle. AMCS takes no responsibility for the accuracy or veracity of the information provided by the Seller.
When a Buyer wishes to speak to the owner or inspect a vehicle listed for sale on the AMCS web site, AMCS will request a copy of the potential buyers driver's license or a business card along with an email address and phone number. This is provided to the seller as confirmation of the legitimacy of the buyer and the seller is then asked to contact the potential buyer to discuss the car and set up an inspection if required.
The Buyer must make his own enquiries and inspections regarding the condition, authenticity and veracity of the vehicle and any statements made by the Seller, and satisfy themselves in all aspects prior to purchasing the car from the Seller. The Buyer understands there is no warranty or guarantee offered by either the Seller or AMCS.
If upon inspection the Buyer is not satisfied with the car for any reason and does not wish to proceed with the purchase the owner is advised and any personal details are deleted from AMCS records.
If the Buyer is satisfied with the car and a price is agreed to with the Seller a formal tax invoice is prepared by AMCS and sent to the Buyer for payment to the AMCS audited Trust Account. AMCS also receives a formal Bill of Sale from the owner stating the car is free of encumbrance and noting banking details for the transaction. Once AMCS receives the total payment cleared into its trust account a transfer is then made to the Seller.
