There was a good story about the car in Muscle Car Magazine a few months ago. I can't remember it's whereabouts though.

The feature article on the Shotgun Falcon is in issue 13 of Australian Muscle Car.
Most of the photos of the XB are in black & white but there is a colour shot on page 81. As a side note if you look at the photo on page 80 you will see an XY coming up the return road in the background behind the ute. That' me after I'D watched the burnout come to a very messy conculsion. |
