first and foremost  i DIDN'T call ANYONE  ignorant i merely  commented on the fact that there is a lot of MISINFORMATION   regarding the ease or  difficulty  in working on modern automobiles.

let me give you a definition of ignorance
  • lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact
    : ignorant of quantum physics.
  • uninformed; unaware.

my intention was to  inform and  assist those  who were hesitant to  attempt  to repair and maintain  their vehicles  with some confidence :)

now  in answer to Leigh's  question allow me to elucidate :)


The new XY GT rolled off the line in late 1970, and was followed in 1971 with the all-time classic GT HO Phase III. With between 350 and 380bhp (270 - 280 kW) and 380 ft/lbs (513Nm) of torque, it was reputed then to be the world's fastest 4-door production car.

Looking suitably aggressive8 with its air intake protruding through the bonnet and bold side stripes, the XY GT's were affectionately known as "Shakers" to many people, a nickname derived from the shaking action of the bonnet scoop and particularly noticeable while the engine is idling.

It is also the vehicle that most people associate with the term Falcon GT. The XY GT was the model that has most captured the imagination of the masses and it is the one that is most often copied.

Many people have purchased standard XY Falcons or Fairmonts and dressed them up to imitate the most legendary of all Falcon GT's.

There were 1,557 XY GT's made from September 1970 to December 1971. There were 300 XY GTHO Phase III's built between May 1971 and November 1971.

Eh well the Falcon you speak of isn't as well known or popular here as the one in Mad Max 1973 XB GT Ford Falcon Coupe an Australia exclusive. It was the making of this movie in 76 that has given this car here in the states any notoriety.It was heavily modified with the help of a gentleman named Peter Arcadipane at ford in Australia.






These cars are sweet and I will not take that from them at all- just not for me. You mentioned 4 doors and stick I rather have 2 doors and automatic myself. But that is just what I am comfortable with. If I had to get a 4 door I would say a satellite but I would rather have a super bee, barracuda, dart, challenger, road runner or 1968 chevy camero,

Auswoody, as for the "brain or heart" in the new cars eh I can appreciate some of its conveniences; I truly can...but I have also seen where the chip has given off the wrong codes and has cost people unnecessary amounts of money and when the EMC goes out there isn't any warning for this. So your car is imitating being out of fuel. And now you are stuck cannot fix it yourself, have to be towed and the dealership has to take over. I personally would rather be able to lift up my hood search for the problem and try to see if we can avoid tow and dealership :P
