Can this 650bhp Beast with skinny tires scare the Living Daylights out of me?

Grand Tourer Ep8 - This week I am in Campbellfield to accompany Dan on a shakedown drive in the nearly completed 1970 Orange Tango Ford XB Falcon.

This is the one with the 434in³ or 7.1 litre engine by one of Melbourne's most renowned engine builders and has been in the workshop for at least the time I've been visiting which is well over 15 months.

Dan and the team at Grand Tourer have worked their magic on this one producing one of the most stunning Falcon builds of the year with its orange exterior set off with a white interior.

Also in the shop are a mix of other Falcon's including a panel van and a particularly beautiful green one, that I have to say is probably my fabvourite specs of all the Falcons I've seen.

Twice weekly visits to classic auto workshops featuring cars from the veteran to RADwood eras & including car restoration, rebuilds, repairs and restomods to anything from Aussie V8s, American muscle cars, Euro exotics, JDM, your coveted everyday runabout and more. If it's built before 1999, there's every chance I'll film it.

My name is Dave and I simply l love old cars and visiting workshops to chat to the people working on them. Added to that, I devour car content on youtube so I thought I'd join in and make some myself.

Hopefully you might like to come along for the journey as well.
