Today I am putting up for auction my 1955 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan. This Fairlane has a tremendously solid frame, with absolutely no rot and you would be very hard pressed to even find a tiny spot of scaley rust. The body is equally as solid, no rot or rust. Straight lines and a new paint job (completed 2007) with bold color give our Fairlane a sharp and clean look!The 272 cubic inch V8 was totally over hauled in 2007 from the bottom up. Step on the gas and that V8 does not miss a beat! The entire braking system was overhauled in Dec. 1994. The 2 speed Ford-O-Matic shifts extremely smooth and can also be easliy converted into a 3 speed if you so desire. I recently took my Fairlane on a roadtrip that was 300 miles round trip. I had not one problem, was a very smooth ride, I had to use the wipers and defroster the whole way without a hitch and I completed the trip on about $80 worth of fuel! This 55' Fairlane also came equipped with power windows as well as power seats, which was unheard of in 1955. There were less then 300 of these Ford Fairlane's ever produced with these power options! Very few dealers would stock a car of this caliber and was either a special ordered Fairlane or was a dealer principal's vehicle. This Fairlane was very exspensive for its day, no matter what make or model you were interested in buying.This 55' Fairlane was built in Sommerville Mass. I do have a clean Mass title that comes with this Fairlane and has passed all safety and emissions testing in the Commonwealth of Mass as recent as 2004. I do have some logs from the prior owner stating the day, time, location and distance the vehicle was driven. I also have a recommended maintance sheet for this my Fairlane, such as what oil to use, tire pressure, transmission fluid type, power steering type, brake ajustment, etc. So, wether you would like to take this Fairlane out for icecream on a sunday afternoon or if you would like to restore this beautiful machine from the ground up the choice is yours! All I can deliver to you is one beautiful and unique canvas in which to begin from! If you would like to contact me directly, feel free. *******860-982-5335******* Ask for Adam.. Thank you for your time...

2015 Ford Focus ST zooming toward Goodwood reveal [w/video]
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Ford has quite a party ready for the Goodwood Festival of Speed starting on June 27. Not only is the 2015 Mustang going to be driving in front of the European public for the first time, the Blue Oval is also unveiling its 2015 refresh for the Focus ST.
Official details about the latest Focus hot hatch are practically nonexistent at this point. Ford's teaser image shows narrower headlights, and the company says that the ST also benefits from the technical and quality improvements from the refreshed standard model, which likely means an even more Aston-Martin-like grille. However, any improvements for the power or handling are a mystery for now.
Ford will even give visitors to the festival the chance to drive the new ST - at least virtually. Gran Turismo 6 kiosks will be on hand with the hot hatch loaded up to race the Goodwood Hill Climb. There will also be real-time races between former Stig Ben Collins in the real ST challenging a player up the hill in the game.
