I've just finished reading the latest issue of Australian Muscle Car Magazine (pic of Moffat & Geoghegan's XW 600HP 'Super Falcons' on cover) and thought you people would be interested to know there's plenty of Ford feaures.

There's an article about the Typhoon, no new info but some constructive criticism similar to what people here have been saying that the body kit is not agressive enough (looks too much like GT or standard XR6 and also that it should have an off-centre bonnet vent.

Also a short article on the DJR/Herrod 320 cars. They say they are made to order, so you can have as many or as few options as you want and will have a unique car. XR8 is only mentioned, don't know if they plan to do modded XR6T as well.

There is also a beaut 25 page article on Moffat & Geoghegan's XW 600HP 'Super Falcons' with heaps of pics and specs.

And an in depth article about the Boss 260/290, showing them building the motors at FPV and going through the steps involved and the differences between the two motors.

All in all I reckon it's the best $6.95 I've ever spent! :banghead:

Being somebody who missed out on the Golden Era of Aussie Motorsport (Read the Ed's, Mark Oastler comments for example) I am thankful for such an informative and UNBIASED magazine.

Its a GT Falcon,its loud fast and cool.Its an R/T Charger, its loud fast and cool. Its an A9X its Loud Fast and cool.Basically appreciate these classic aussie cars and the people who drove them,no matter if your a ford/holden/chrysler etc nut.

God weren't those Superfalcons something else?600HP and 185 MILE per hour, that's 297KMH in an XW/XY Brick with DRUM brakes!Untold skill to control something like that!

I wanna build me one :) but maybe in an XA Coupe shell......one day.

XA Coupes are being grabbed by the seps...... quite a few have been exported to the US, where they are dropping in blown big blocks emulating Mel's Interceptor from MAD MAX.

The one thing I love about the muscle cars cars from the 60's~70's, is the (lack of) depreciation rate. Bought my 68 vette 6 years ago and can sell it for about the same as what I've put into it. try doing that with a modern (new) car.

Its a pity you can't nova-lease old classics.
