XB (1973 to 1976)

Produced from 1973 to 1976, the Ford Falcon XB is one of the most iconic Australian Falcons ever built, sitting between the XA and XC generations and cementing the model’s place in local muscle car culture. Offered in sedan, wagon, ute, panel van, and the now-legendary hardtop coupe, the XB range featured inline-six and V8 powertrains, including the desirable 302 and 351 V8s, with performance-focused GT variants continuing Ford’s racing pedigree. The XB also gained global fame through its starring role in the Mad Max films, particularly the modified XB GT Hardtop “Interceptor,” which elevated the model to cult status worldwide. Total XB Falcon production exceeded approximately 211,000 units, making it relatively plentiful overall, though genuine GTs and hardtops represent a small fraction of that figure. In the Australian market, XB values are driven by body style (hardtop premium), V8 specification, originality, and GT provenance, with clean, documented examples firmly established as blue-chip local collectibles.
