Build Number 5 (of 43)

This particular XE has to be one of the best preserved of the batch of around 43 cars, with only 20,000 original k's on the clock. Believed to now reside with a collector in Victoria, the car was last for sale some years ago on Australian Muscle Car Sales at $40,000 (perhaps around 2012, but date unconfirmed).

The Dick Johnson Grand Prix Turbo was produced by the Country Dealer Team in Victoria, with only 43 units built! This particular car is number 5 of those 43. The car is fitted with a 250ci 6 cylinder with Garrett T04 Turbo and twin CD Strombergs. If anyone has information on it, please contact us so we can update its status, and perhaps get a bit more information on this particular car.

We have recently developed an identification / information guide for the Dick Johnson Grand Prix turbo which can be seen here: http://classicregister.com/id-guides/how-identify-1982-1983-ford-falcon-xe-dick-johnson-grand-prix

If you have any further information on these cars generally, or own one yourself, please add it to the register so we can keep track of these rare early Falcon Turbos!
