Just reading back through AMC magazines and it says when the XB GT came in Moffat and Gibson were given the 2 ford XA GT works teams cars because the works team went out of business.

Moffat got the No.6 car raced by Gibson in 73 and Gibson got a test/spare car they had.

Moffat then changed the No.6 Gibson XA to the XB sheet metal and used the Brut 33 paint sceme for the 74 ATCC season.

Then it was sent to the US for the secret development thing and re-appeared in 75 for the 75 endurance season and was painted in red and gold colors.

Then it says Moffat ran it in the 76 ATCC series until it was destroyed in a race transporter fire on its way to ATCC round in Adelaide.

So i guess thats what happened to the No.6 XA of Fred Gibson's or from what i can tell any way.

Check out AMC magazine issues 20 and 26 thats were i got the info from.
