This Gregory's Ford Falcon & Fairlane XY-XA-XB and ZD-ZF-ZG Series 6 Cylinder 1970-1976 workshop manual, Scientific Publication No. 155, is a substantial and authoritative service guide covering one of the most important eras of Ford Australia's large six-cylinder cars. Encompassing Falcon XY, XA and XB models alongside the corresponding Fairlane ZD, ZF and ZG ranges, the manual addresses sedan, hardtop, wagon and Futura variants powered by the durable 3.3-litre and 4.1-litre inline six engines. Compiled during the height of these models' production life, it reflects Gregory's well-established hands-on approach, aimed squarely at professional workshops and serious home mechanics.
The manual provides comprehensive coverage of engine servicing and overhaul, cooling and fuel systems, clutch, manual and automatic transmissions, rear axle, steering, front and rear suspension, brakes, electrical systems, body fittings, wheels and tyres, and routine lubrication and maintenance. Clear exploded diagrams, photographs, wiring schematics, specifications and torque settings underpin detailed step-by-step procedures, with a dedicated supplement for later XB Falcon and ZG Fairlane updates. Published in Sydney by Gregory's Scientific Publications, this volume now stands as both a practical technical reference and a period document of Australian motoring history, appealing particularly to restorers of classic Falcons and Fairlanes, Ford enthusiasts, collectors of Australian workshop manuals, and those with an interest in locally engineered six-cylinder cars of the 1970s."
