Re: EA Falcon SVO

I must agree with Athol35, Never seen one and never heard of one, not in Kiwiland anyway. The pics look quite like an EA Fairmont with ED Sprint gear thrown in for good measure, rims, instrument cluster etc. And a few SVO decals. Can always stand corrected tho'.
What engine? The v8 only came later in the EB series life as an XR8.
SVO six?? Hane not seen one with 9 years as a Ford Techie.

Hi fella
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
See also Special Vehicle Team
In 1981, Ford formed the Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) group to design and develop performance parts and accessories related to the company's racing programs


[edit] SVO Australia
SVO was created in Australia by Australian motor racing driver and engineer Mick Webb in the late 1980's. Dick Johnson also used the SVO nameplate, originally on modified XF Falcons. Webb and Johnson both claimed ownership of the acronym, however it was Webb whom first registered it's useage. Mick modified new Ford EA Falcons (with "S Pac" or "Fairmont Ghia" base) with customised ROH 16" wheels, Recaro seats, MoMo steering wheels, suspension upgrades including Bilstein shock absorbers, engine modifications, spoilers and two tone grey paint work.

At the time, Ford were not investing in V8 or sports modifications and the relationship didn't evolve further. Tickford Vehicle Engineering, an English company, were contracted to perform enhancements to Ford sedans, leading to the XR sports models.

SVO produced 1600 Falcon Sedans, 1100 ute's, 600 Fairlanes and 280 capri's.[citation needed]

Melbourne and Sydney dealership records indicate that 5 SVO NL Fairlanes were produced between 1997 - 1998. Several EL XR8 and EL Fairmont Ghias were also produced. These vehicles employed a mix of EL GT, Ghia and parts bin accessories rather than a specific design, and were reviewed in Motor and Wheels magazines in 1997.

Mick Webb & SVO are still enhancing and modifying Ford products today.
