Ford FALCON XW GT Sedan / SCALEXTRIC

Diamond White Aussie Muscle Car

For the American and Australian market, Scalextric Hornby puts on sale this week a new Ford Falcon XW, one of the GT that dominated the sports scene of the early seventies.

Manufactured in Australia from 1969 onwards to replace the XT, the XW GT was a sports car on the outside and inside. When the front bonnet in black, the spoiler and the double headlights appeared in a rear-view mirror, you already sensed that something very special was going to overtake you.

The Windsor 351 engine, a V8 with four Holley carburetors, allowed him to get 290 hp. Only 2,200 units were manufactured and the Diamond White color one of the most desired and they reach excellent figures in the auctions.

This model, C3986, that Scalextric has reproduced at 1:32 scale with the driver on the right, is available for both the Australian and American markets.
