Emil Hafner - Xp Falcon Coupe

Owner: Emil Hafner

Sydney, NSW

Engine: 5.0L 302 Windsor

Trans: 3 speed C4 Auto

Diff: Ford 9"

The Car has been heavily upgraded mechanically in every department with a list really too long to mention. I was fortunate to find a car that had recieved some major modifications such as windsor 302, C4 auto, all new suspension, drivetrain, 9" diff, heavy duty cooling system, all new interior and new electrical setup with a new 13 plate battery, and so on.    This pre-loved XP had obviously had many little (and not so little) things done to it in the past, which is great. I have had the car for 3 years now and have also done quite a bit of work on it myself. My current list of things to do are, replace various gaskets, Tappet adjustment and new chrome rocker covers (why the hell not !!!), upgrade and chrome air intake. Fix up a bit of sagging door problem, detail the engine bay, change to a twin exhaust system. Change back to the original wheels (chrome hub) with a very thin white wall. Also upgrade the sound system with more speakers and amps. I have already done the suspension and cooling system which leaves nothing major left to do.    "It is like having a full size, useful toy model that you can work on improving indefinately. It's great fun pottering around with a handful of tools and a beer."    In a few years I hope to tear it all apart  and rebuild it 'Perfectly'. No-one builds anything like these anymore which is a tragic shame, getting there was really half the fun. Good motoring and if you don't have a hobby, buy an old falcon and get to work !.
