Okay, we up to Part 3 of Cleveland Spares Car Collection in Melbourne and today is about the Coupes and Hardtops. So let’s kick it off with Rob as his XA Ford Falcon GS Hardtop (Coupe). So Rob owns the original number matching XA Ford Falcon GS K Code 351 Engine in Yellow Glow paint, factory Sunroof and white trim. He has been restoring this to Factory Specs at present. Now Rob brought this car off a friend about 10 – 12 years ago and it was in shell state when he go it. He was sitting in mate shed after he stripe in 1986 and left sitting there for ages. So Rob brought it with all the parts and started do a full restoration XA Ford Falcon GS Hardtop. Now Rob had loads of issues restoring this XA Ford include he hardtop going missing from paint shop. He almost even sold a few times because issue but he glad he never has and it remains in the family collection. The engine bay in the XA Ford Falcon GS looks very standard 351 k code but it has a 500 horsepower engine with 9″ diff with trutrac. The interior XA Ford Falcon was restored back factory specs and it looks fantastic. Now, let check out this awesome car that Cass chased down from the previous owner. Now Cass’s Brother found this car whilst working on a the property next door to this HK Holden Monaro GTS Coupe. Now this HK Monaro was sitting in a paddock with moss all over it. Now Cass chased this owner down for a whole year before he agreed to sell it to her. Now that have, Rob and Cass are restoring this to it former glory. They have restored the paint to factory colour and the outside of the HK Holden Monaro GTS Coupe. They are going to put a 383 Chevy Big Block Engine and Trans, plus they will upgrade the diff to a Ford 9″ Diff to manage the the performance of the engine. However, this is going to one stunning HK Holden Monaro GTS Coupe once finished. Thanks to Rob and Cass at Cleveland Spares for showing us your car collection and garage art. We are looking forward to coming back very soon to more of your projects.
