N.B. Not correctly recorded are a number of Brambles Red, Surfer Orange, and Vintage Burgundy etc. The HO 1.5 numbers are based on the March/ April production as opposed to the 50 figure which looks to be the post Bathurst December run of Phase 1 351’s.

I have an April 1970 XW GTHO with SPEC as the paint code. Ford Australia confirmed the paint colour is Zircon Green. Cheers Lloyd
