Grand Tourer Ep1 - This is the story of the restoration of this mighty 1975 pollution upgrade Ford Falcon XB coupe.

Twice weekly visits to classic auto workshops featuring cars from the veteran to RADwood eras & including car restoration, rebuilds, repairs and restomods to anything from Aussie V8s, American muscle cars, Euro exotics, JDM, your coveted everyday runabout and more. If it's built before 1999, there's every chance I'll film it.

My name is Dave and I simply l love old cars and visiting workshops to chat to the people working on them. Added to that, I devour car content on youtube so I thought I'd join in and make some myself.

Hopefully you might like to come along for the journey as well.

Dave's Workshop Tours (DWT) is on many of the socials like Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and Twitter

Anyway, here's the first part of my my visit to Grand Tourer in Melbourne's north. They work specifically on Ford GTs which to you and me having not grown up on them, is big Aussie V8 sedans and coupes that ruled the roost up until 1976 when the company stopped production, not bringing the badge back until the early nineties.

Just 949 of the coupes, or Hardtops as they are more formally known, were sold making them ultra rare and now extremely valuable. This one in Tango orange (is that where the UK soft drink got the name from?) will soon be making its way back to it's owner but the team have let me in for a get to know you session. I'm looking forward to when that engine first gets run. you can be sure the sound will be epic. #V8 #falconGT #xbcoupe #ford

Thanks to Dan, David and the rest of the team at Grand Tourer
