Is that a 'Super roo" sticker on the front of the XA(?) ?
Makes it very rare I think.
I was something of a Ford nerd in my teens.

Still reckon they are great cars - XB probably my favourite.
Would love to buy one before they are all gone, but too many conflicting projects.

Nah Nozza,not rare,you can buy those Superoo stickers at Rare Spares and Ebay.That's just a run of the mill XA Falcon 250 Panelvan with a sticker he's bought back then.The real car with the Superoo sticker from the factory was the Phase 1 XW GTHO.....

Oh, go and spoil it for me!
Don't think they would have been that common back then, either.
I reckon it's actually got Futura (maybe) bonnet stripes along the top of the wings too.

No Ebay when that photo was taken, but no Super Roo in XAs from a bit of research either.
Quite impressed the shape jogged my memory though.
Must be a huge problem in faking original cars with that stuff available.
And the stripes, if they are there are Grand Sport Rally Pack.
Might have to move the Jags on and get in to these.....

Yeah Noz,even the GS Fairmont and Falcon are getting up there in the dollars,like a lot of aussie cars back then they had their rust problems thoughThe older Superoo stickers where pretty much available at any spare parts shops,I had one as a kid but it's long gone!....

For the age, I'll go for 66/67, I reckon those fins are too narrow and high for anything earlier.

The location has me stuffed, but it looks a lot like one of the headlands on the northern side of Catherine Hill Bay.
