Can also remember the antenna base was rectangle as they were from a Mustang.
With 5 ppl in it we got it up to 148 mph, silly now but bullet proof back then lol.
Mate was forever breaking the crap cow catcher off the front, the horn inside the
steering wheel rim was novel.
Driving to Perth did the same across the Nullabor cogged down to 3rd at 100mph to overtake,,,stupid numbers.
@ one of the road houses there was a brand new HO with the front written off ,he hit a roo @ 100mph
A good roo will do that lol
My mate originally wanted a white one with the black stripe and the only one at the time was in Darwin
so he settled on the Vermillion Fire GT, lot of great memories
Redline was 5000rpm how sweet did it sound at full noise eh lol

Good little motor the 289 windsor.

I have to admit my baby poo brown XB's body was rubbish, but you would have had to put a high powered round through the 250 engine block to kill it.
Is that the photo from Wheels magazine where he red lined it in top
going from Sydney to Melb in a GTHO,,,,,,,,Cause you could back then
Mates XY GT got up to 148 mph on the speedo with 5 of us in it.
Also would never redline only got to 4800rpm in any gear.
It did go through a heap of push rods from memory
