FOR one day only, the Museum of Vehicle Evolution (MOVE) will be transformed like never before. The GT Nationals are taking over the entire museum, showcasing over 320 legendary GT Falcons with an estimated value of $100M!
Scheduled for Saturday, March 15, 10am to 5pm, this is your chance to witness some of the finest, rarest and never-before-seen GT Falcons all in one place. MOVE Executive Officer Marcus Cook said it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for all car enthusiasts.
“We will be emptying 90 per cent of the museum for the event and it will be filled with iconic Ford GTs for the event,” Marcus said.
The 2023 event held in Bathurst, NSW saw more than 400 case entered with individuals bringing their cars from every corner of the country to be part of this biannual event. The 2025 event will mark the 20th Nationals proudly hosted by the Falcon GT Club of Victoria, and the 40th year since the inception of the event, making it one you won’t want to miss.
In addition to the impressive cars on display, there will also be food vendors, merchandise stands and trade stalls on-site.
Tickets are only $20 for adults, $16 concession, and children aged 5-16 are $12. Family passes which include two adults and up to four kids are $50.
Gearing up for all the excitement, you can catch some exclusive Ford models on display at MOVE ahead of the GT Nationals, including the 1971 Ford XY, affectionately known as ‘The Grinch’.
The XY Grinch, masterfully built by Southern Rod and Custom, features a 393 Pavtec Cleveland engine and highly modified C10 transmission. Add a wild Lamborghini-derived pearl green paint job and a static, wheel-tucking stance, and it becomes a GT tribute far removed from the type you see lined up at your typical show ‘n’ shine.
