No such animal as an XY Falcon GT Panel Van. Although some Falcon Panel Vans were better optioned than others.

The ute you are talking about is a well optioned Falcon Panel Van. There is no model code for an XY Falcon 500 Panel Van, let along a Falcon GT Panel Van. The only model code for a Van in the XY is 45181. That number is for a basic Falcon Panel Van.

Re: Xy Gt Van

I agree. Also, despite the stripes and "GTVAN" plates, the purple van is not claimed to be a GT. It is a normal Falcon pano with a heap of options originally ordered as a special by a dealer (or Ford manager). I can't remember if it has a GT engine though or a normal 351.
