Late in 1979, Ford replaced the XW Range with the new XY range. As with the XW, a GT was also released. By the first half of 1971, a GT-HO, phase 3 was delivered. This GT-HO was a true supercar and with a top speed of over 140mph was the fastest four-door sedan in the world at the time. Approximately 300 XY GT-HO Phase 3 comes with the top-of-the-line interior with a 140mph speedometer and an 8000rpm tachometer. It also sports the protruding air cleaner scoop in the bonnet famously known as a "shaker".
