center console bucket seats
being so big n bargy its probably why i ended up being a fairlane person
tho the xb i owned was probably the start of the reason i grew away from being a falcon person
having said that i wouldnt mind a xb/c wagon shell with the multi way tailgate
id put a zh fairlane front clip on it and 4x4 it   |
ZH Fairlane would have to be the best ford car ever made over all.
Why, No 6cyl for one. so no one can be mistaken you owned a 6cyl and that was when Ford really got there act together with a world class car that no one could truly bag in any way.
No one can mistake it for what it is.
The good thing about the 4.9L V8 is the C4 auto and the 2.92 diff so no one can poo poo that combination, the 5.8L has the 2.75 9in and FMX box so it's not so much better as one would think to drive. so you win regardless.
Maybe you could put a GXL instruments in as I do not like the ribbon speedo.
But the back seat is were it's all at for comfort on trips. the XC GXL rear seat is not in that class at all.
The ZH Fairlane Sportsman from 11/1978
Best F100 XLT 4X4 with the 5.8L auto from 1978 no one could bag that.
I would spend the money to restore them regardless because they are a classic.
