Heya mate,
I'm helping to track down a coupe for my female friend. If you're not interested in it I would like to have a look with her.
Thanks dude.

Andrew, do you mean "Landau" coupe? 10 grand sounds about right. If the car is rust free and low milage it's probably worth a bit more. Which State is the car in and is it away from the coast a bit?

Andrew, they never made a fairlane coupe here. If it has a fairlane front end it isnt factory. If you are wanting an XA to XC coupe without rust issues of some kind.....um ....mate you are out of luck. Maybe a Delorean?

hey andrew, i believe that a two door fairlane would be a landau, which is based on the falcon coupe body shell - but with all the luxury options, and different round the side windows. But i wasnt aware of xa vintage ladau, i thought they were all xb?

Yes, Landaus were around during the XA era. Ford Aus tried to convince CAMS that the landau was the same as an XA GT so that enough coupes were made with the 4 wheel disc brakes to be eligable for bathurst. They didn't get away with that one. Landau is
