BF XR6: Obviously the XR6 has very different fenders and a totally different design but I’m unsure of the actual difference the engine has to the other models. Did they get better performance parts, internals and system? Obviously the Boss V8s did but what about the I6 Barra? The FGs had a better performance engine but was there really any difference from the beginning to the end of BF Barra production?

BF MK2 Fairmont: I own this model and have not much of an idea on their history other than the brief years they were being produced. Y were they designed (imo) to look a lot closer to a BA Falcon rather than a BF? Is the engine any different to the ghia and what is the differences between the Fairmont and XR6 Barra?

BF MK2 Fairmont Ghia: I do know these were made to be the “European luxury” models of the Fairmont. Nicer interior, open sun roof and a front bumper with a lip that the non Ghia Fairmonts didn’t get. The production numbers seem to not have been announced which I found odd. Is the price difference between the ghia and non ghias Fairmont actually worth it or is it just a rarity/luxury thing?

I’m trying to understand the engine and performance difference between them all. I owned an FG XR6 and I wrapped my head around the FG models pretty fast but for whatever reason I’m struggling to understand the BF models. I’m honestly not seeing much difference between them besides the looks. Obviously the BF Fairmont Ghia came in the I6 Barra like every 6 cylinder engine starting from the BAs but y did they produce a very small number of the 220 v8 barras for the BF Ghia (I’ve heard in some BAs too), but I don’t understand y they had already put boss V8s in previous models but never in the Fairmonts. The BF XR6 came out with a red top turbo’d Barra option as the Fairmonts never did, I didn’t understand that; did they believe luxury also couldn’t be performance?

I know I have a lot of questions and I apologise lol but this is honestly my last opinion to understanding the decisions ford Australia made and wrapping my head around the differences of these models.

I work in an aged care facility. My boss needed 2 of the storage sheds to be cleared out else it was all going in the bin. They had been closed for 20+ yrs so it had a lot of old cool things in there. While I was there she said to grab anything else I wanted, this caught my eye hanging from the roof. Put it in the car and forgot about it for a couple of weeks.

Given it a wipe down to get most of the dust off (after these photos) and had a look into its history. It was made in England and most of them went to Europe and the Middle East so it being all the way over in Australia was pretty cool. From what I know it’s from the 1940s-1950s.

Thought it would be something interesting to sharing/showing off :)
