1955 Ford Fairlane - Town Sedan - All Original Survivor!!!! on 2040-cars
Burbank, California, United States
|
Looking for an original 1955
Ford that hasn't been altered in anyway and been in the same family since late
1954? Up for sale is a 1955 Ford Town Sedan ----All Original Survivor ----black
and white with green inside---Never repainted factory original!!!!!--First, the
car is NOT running, and has been in storage INSIDE since 1979. 6 months ago it
was moved to my drive-way, and it sits today. The car has the original paint,
interior, chrome and stainless still on the car--- it's ALL THERE. One emblem
on the trunk is bent (Ford-o-matic) but could be fixed if new one can't be
found. The original hub caps are included (tires are going flat), no cracked or
missing glass, original tube AM radio, and a dash that's in truly amazing shape
for its age. The body is in strong shape, with some damage in the rocker panel
under the doors on the driver's side----this is NOT a rust bucket and I have
not seen any rust on the car popping up---always been a So-Cal auto since DAY 1
in the Los Angeles area---has 1963 black plates. Has ONLY 89,900 original miles!!! On Oct-19-13 at 20:55:14 PDT, seller added the following information: UPDATE: The car's interior is original, but is not in great shape --it's torn in sections---been like that since the mid 1970's. There is a set of green seat covers that was placed on the car sometime in the late 1960's, and they have been on since then. Some of the cloth molding is worn and the drives door panel has torn in the cloth section. As I said, it's all original and never altered---so the car can return back to day one stock (since nothing has been removed) or custom the car out. The paint does have chips, scratches all over the car, but this was a daily driver up until 1979 when it went into storage---the car seen about 25 years or wear and then stored. As for rust---I've been getting questions about that---looking around the car, I'm seeing no rust popping up on the body. The car was stored inside for 33 years, so it wasn't sitting out in the elements. The door locks, truck and ignition keys will need to be replace. |

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history
Sat, 03 May 2014You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years
Wed, 01 May 2013While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
