When Brock Mahoney Went Looking for a John Goss Special XB Falcon, He Never Expected to Find It in the Emerald Isle!

Simon Major

‘WILL travel for right car’ has taken on a whole new meaning for Sunshine Coast local Brock Mahoney. After finishing his show-stomping red XC coupe IN ENVY (SM, Sep ’14), Brock was keen for a project that took on more of a ‘street’ role but had genuine sports lineage – namely an XB John Goss Special.

“My dad Kevin bought the red XC brand new in ’77, but nearly traded it on a blue John Goss Special not long after,” Brock explains. “So there’s a family connection there, but I just love them regardless. My only stipulation was that it had to be the Apollo Blue version and not the Emerald Fire green; it made the pickings even slimmer, but I just prefer the blue option.”
