3. 1969 Ford Falcon GT XT
The next generation of the Ford Falcon arrived in 1969 only to add fuel to the muscle car fire. Aussie muscle car wars were famous on the streets, as well as on the racing circuits in the highly competitive Australian Touring Car championship. The new Falcon with the XF chassis code came prepared. And in the GT version, it featured a bigger and more powerful 5.0-liter V8 engine.
The 5.0-liter V8 was available in standard trim with 210 HP, but with the GT package, the engine delivered 230 HP and vivid performance. Also, the GT package came with better brakes, a close-ratio transmission and a host of other upgrades. This generation of Falcon GT came in the four-door sedan version only. However, it managed to prove itself on the race tracks.
