Comments from the seller

DISCOUNTED like to get another vehicle on the road the price is FIRM. The ORIGINAL XR8 before Tickford, early July 91 build, released August 1991, (1348 SXR8 built 1991-93), dry South Australian country car from new. IMMACULATE condition. Nothing to spend here, just maintain and enjoy. No texts or messages answered, Please calls only, blocked numbers not answered, Pick up the phone if your interested. Thanks old chap. All work done by RAA professionals with receipts., an excellent GO and SHOW car see all the PICTURES. Eligible for the club permit and Bay to Birdwood. 0ne of the very first XR8's designed and engineered by Ford, before Tickford. NO rust, Every thing is working, cold a/c new compressor and valves, even the cassette player, with the addition of the sunroof and the lowered suspension. New screen, 4 new Bridgestone tyres, The only computer on the car is the engine control unit (ECU), which means it is cheap and easy to maintain, as everything is "old school". Riverglades is in Murray Bridge South Australia Bcause Aussie Ford engineers were very busy with other stuff – such as trying to sort-out the overdue four-speed automatic transmission and fix problems with the EA Falcon’s embarrassing production quality – the development of the new Falcon V8 was fast-tracked by commissioning US-based performance racing legend (and trusted Ford supplier) Jack Roush to assist with off-site construction of early prototypes. Thanks to Nasser’s vision and Roush’s get-things-started input to Ford Australia’s engineering and development processes, the Falcon V8 was back in brochures in August 1991, with the introduction of the EB series. Prior to the formation of Tickford Vehicle Engineering (TVE). Ford Australia itself launched the EB Falcon S-XR8 after its decision to again offer a V8 engine option for the first time in their cars since the 1982 XE-series.
