Seller's Description
1974 XB GS Fairmont with the works.... Matching number 302 V8, t bar automatic, power steering, factory integrated air conditioning (not working), power windows, two way tailgate with power rear glass, remote side mirror and factory Mushroom Beige with Saddle trim with cloth inserts. Good solid and honest well optioned car, pretty amazing it has survived as these were often pulled apart as parts cars and seams when every you find a well optioned car it's either rusted beyond restoration, missing it's motor or if it's a solid car it's a 6 cylinder Falcon 500 you don't want to tip heaps of money into... So this is a great find but does still need work and selling as an easy project car. The colour makes it hard to see but it has a dint in the passengers rear door and a few dints in the passengers rear quarter, passengers sill has a dint behind the sill mould but doesn't seam to bad, the sill mould will need replacing though, it's pretty good for rust given how bad these were, it has some slight rust in the drip rails but not bad and just needs to be cleaned up, treated and repaired, there is a spot you'll need to plate in the tailgate door aperture on the lower passengers side, the tailgate is a bit wobbly looking across the bottom but i looked inside the door and there is no rust and has had no repairs so the two way and electric tailgate is great.. You could cruise it as it is but a full exterior respray would clean it up and it would look great for it. The drivers seat insert has some separations in the cloth, the rest of the seats are in great condition as are the door panels, the drivers arm rest has a kink in it they may just be sitting wrong but not sure, might need to replace that. The dash is mint, no cracks and still sort, the dash and everything is nice too and the carpet has been replaced at some point so really not much to do in there. Prior to me getting it it had sat for an extended period of time and when it was fired up again the fuel filter split and started a small fire, i have had an auto electrician and a mechanic go through it and everything works as it should and it's sorted. The only thing to note is the bonnet has some blisters and again will need paint, it's not warped anything and made more of a mess that did damage... Other things to note...The passengers rear door window only works off the door switch not the master on the drivers door, it needs a windscreen, i've just had it lowered and it sits rad, it has new springs in the front and leaves in the rear, she's pretty low... the original rear leaves car go with the car. So... I guess i have described this as an easy project, it's an exterior respray, windscreen and the drivers seat repair away from being a real tidy and well optioned wagon... as with all this stuff you really need to come see it for yourself, I dig these wagon's and always have eyes for them and if this wagon was around when i was looking for mine (I own another one i use every day) i would have started with this car over my own, it's solid, matching numbers and crazy well optioned and it's hard to get all that in one car. Located at Nerang on the Gold Coast..
