The last few year of the Falcon in both the FG and FGX series leading up to October 2016 when the final Falcon was built ran three engines ..The N/A 4.0 litre DOHC inline 6 Barra and most had the 6 speed ZF sports shift of 6 speed manual ...then the Turbo version of this engine in the XR6 T and FPV models ,,also mostly ZF or manual 6 speeders . Also the amazing quad cam 5.0 litre Supercharged V8 developed in Australia...Beautiful engine and really was supercharged....and goes like a cut cat....
Some years later B&M did come out with a part time operated Blower that was equipped with a bypass system for the blower to work with it engaged or disingaged while the engine is running. But when mad Max was on I sent a letter in to BNN and asked him a question about it and they wrote back and said that was only in the movies that it was not real. I wish to this day that I had kept that letter. I should’ve kept it and had it framed.
In the US, maybe 20 years ago, I was driving my 1970 muscle car near Marshfield MA. A parade had just broken up. Around the corner comes a yellow MFP Pursuit car and then right behind it, the Interceptor. They were going opposite lanes to me, real slow. As they passed I yelled out of my window "BRONZE! Gonna get YOU!!" and the yellow car flipped on his bubble lights. It was great fun.
@@dukecraig2402 hi Mate , they were 100% made in Australia 🇦🇺 from 1971 or even 1970 have to Wikipedia, also if you google it you will find out that the ones made in Australia are very strong due to Australia harsh hot weather conditions and Aussie Bathurst racing era that the cars had to Match the ones for sale , as Australian slogan from era tells “ Wins the race on Sunday ,sells the cars on Monday “ from the long historical battle between Ford and Holden so those Australian made 351 Cleveland heads are extremely sort out overseas, also from 1971 ford Australia made and shipped the 351 Cleveland engine to Italy 🇮🇹 to me put in the De Tomaso Pantera over there in Italy , a lot people even in USA 🇺🇸 don’t know that De Tomaso Pantera engines are made in Australia from 1971 onwards. I’ve a 4V heads made in Australia in my 1979 F100 and they are very strong and in Australia they are legendary, the were in our falcons , utes , F100 and Broncos !
@@chocodiledundee1 The Pantera engine's were made in America until 74, the only reason they started sourcing them from Australia is because 74 was the last year the Cleveland plant made them, not because the one's from Australia were made better or anything like that. I just ask if the engine's for those cars were made there, not for a bunch of nonsense claims, all those engine's were designed and engineered in America, what was made over there was simply copies. And we've got our share of deserts over here, that claim about hot weather and it supposedly leading to the engine's being made over there be better is one of the most ridiculous I've ever heard, just because you heard someone say malarkey like that in a bar doesn't make it true. Number of American auto plants in Australia, lots. Number of Australian plants in America, zero. And by the way, the saying "Race on Sunday sell on Monday" is from America not Australia, you copy us, we don't copy you.
Incredible car and loved the vid! Congrats mate, that is hands down the most impressive tribute Interceptor I've seen 👏🤗 I was fortunate to see the original movie car in Keswick about 20yrs ago and a couple of really nice examples here in Australia (plus a bunch online in the US), but your car is gorgeous! I can only imagine the time and effort that has gone into getting it to such a standard.
That was awesome. Loved it. Hey I used that exact road for some drone footage of my camaro on my 1st weston bike night video. It would of been good to get together & he could of chassed me in my Camaro. I know there were no Camaros in Mad Max, but who cares 😄. I absolutely have to meet the owner and see that car. Fairplay to him. That's beyond awesome 👌
Well there is a Holden Monero Pursuit Special in the movie (actually more than a few) and here in the States at Wasteland Weekend same year Chevy Camaros are what a lot of people use to clone the police car the Nightrider (a terminal psychotic) stole in the opening scene of Mad Max.... They are actually quite convincing.
Great tribute. Amazing looking car. I really love the aerial views. Reckon she looks the absolute business looking down from those overhead shots. (post more!)
Gotta' hand it to your little treasure, last of the great V8 interceptors. Been seeing a lot of American Mad Max fans showing off their various post apocalypse creations. Now here's an English fan, if I'm not mistaken. I'm so glad us Australians have had such a global impact.
To be honest to you pal, I'm jelaous, a little bit, hahahaa :P Just kidding, your Falcon XB is just gorgeous ! Piece of history and certainly piece of art . I just love that car ❤
As an Aussie, I salute you mate. Well done old chap. Jolly good show 😊 P.S fun fact, I used to walk past the garage where the movie cars were being built on my way to school. Also, it’s always referred to as the Pursuit Special.
@@MadHax-wt5tl It was an inauspicious looking garage too. As a kid I said to myself, "wow, they look cool!". I think I was only 12 at the time. Of course, nobody was aware these cars would be part of the now iconic "Mad Max". The next time I saw the actual filming car would have been in 1992 at the Birdswood Car Museum in South Australia. Another fun fact, I now live in the suburb of Sunbury (In the State of Victoria, Australia) where the final famous scene of Max taking revenge on the thug by forcing him to chain his ankes, tossing him a hacksaw. That piece of winding road is only about 15 minutes from me and still looks very much the same as it did in 1979.
Wow. Thanks for posting this. I really enjoyed watching it. I think this is the cleanest, most movie accurate one I’ve ever seen. Even the RVS radio - looks like it has a digital readout! The highway 9 sign is a great touch too. Thanks again.
@@Dalesvid thank you. May I please ask - do you ever show the car anywhere ? If so I’d love to visit the show and see the car. I visited the car at the ‘car’s the star’ museum that was in Keswick many years ago but it was in my less favourite MM2 guise. I’d love to see your car in the flesh.
Hey man sweet build and nice vid. You actually did some good scouting there too, barring the width (or lack thereof) and greenness, you’ve managed to find some roads that look quite Aussie👍

Congrats for owning a wonderful vehicle. The road and aerial takes are gorgeous. The Pursuit Special look quite intimidating and magnificent whenever the road surroundings are beautifully normal or idilical.

Recently I've been getting into the "Australian new wave" movies from the 70's and early 80's and just recently learning about them and that the Mad Max movies were a part of that movement in Australian cinema, and the fact that Bruce Spence is involved in so many of them makes them that much better. Stork, Alvin Purple, The Cars That Ate Paris and others are great movies, and thanks to all the streaming services they can be found on it's like I get to live through the 70's again watching them, it's become my favorite hobby lately.
It isn't an original movie car. It's much nicer than an original movie car. The film makers were struggling on a budget, I know what you mean, but they did an amazing job for the budget they had.
Coolest car ever hands down. Looks like something Darth Vader would drive.

Recently I've been getting into the "Australian new wave" movies from the 70's and early 80's and just recently learning about them and that the Mad Max movies were a part of that movement in Australian cinema, and the fact that Bruce Spence is involved in so many of them makes them that much better.
Stork, Alvin Purple, The Cars That Ate Paris and others are great movies, and thanks to all the streaming services they can be found on it's like I get to live through the 70's again watching them, it's become my favorite hobby lately.
スーパーチャージャーは雨の日でも使えるのですか?
Nice!
CLASS!!
Bellissima cazzo !!! Complimenti !!! 💛
Awesome 😎
Thats not the last of the V8 interceptors is it?
Last of the V8’s 😎👍
This one of the original movie cars? I've seen a couple of them but i wasn't impressed when I found out they used fake superchargers to save money 😐
It isn't an original movie car. It's much nicer than an original movie car. The film makers were struggling on a budget, I know what you mean, but they did an amazing job for the budget they had.
Top top
Nice work with the car and the photography
Thankyou I appreciate the feedback 😎👍
