FOR SALE – 1979 Ford Fairmont XD V8 “Greens-Tuf” Dick Johnson Tribute
BERNIE SMITH CLASSIC CARS – PH 0418 399 392
A well-executed tribute to one of Australia’s most iconic touring car liveries, this 1979 Ford Fairmont XD Factory V8 is finished in the unmistakable Greens-Tuf / Palmer Tube Mills Dick Johnson Racing colours, capturing the aggressive look and stance of the famous Group C era Falcons.
Originally a factory V8 vehicle, this Fairmont has been built into a strong and usable motorsport-inspired tribute. Power comes from a 351ci V8, delivering the sound and performance expected of a classic Australian muscle car. The engine has been comprehensively worked and balanced, supported by a Top Loader 4-speed manual transmission and upgraded driveline components to suit regular road use.
The engine bay is tidy and functional, featuring a billet air cleaner, Ford Racing alloy rocker covers, upgraded cooling system and supporting hardware. Braking and suspension upgrades further enhance drivability and cruising capability.
The odometer is showing 52,489 kilometres.
Inside, the car offers a neat and well-kept interior, maintaining comfort and usability for street driving.
This is a well-sorted Dick Johnson Fairmont tribute that presents cleanly, looks the part and is built to be driven and enjoyed.
