1956 Ford Fairlane Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed
Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads. It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles. The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo. The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch. The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe. Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator. There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding. Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should. This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!
The body & paint are in very good condition! The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago. The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up. There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE! The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition. The tires have about 300 miles on them. The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition. The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.
Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb. The four speed works great. The engine runs very strong and fast. No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator. Steering is straight and solid. The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back. All fluids have been changed and are fresh.
In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor? Never! Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time. Serious bidders only! I will require a non-refundable $5000 deposit within 72 hours of close of this add. Remaining funds MUST be paid by cash or bank wire transfer. I will however accept a cashiers check if I am with you at the bank when you receive it. The remaining funds will need to be paid in full within 7 days of close of auction.
Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer. I am not a dealer. Any taxes or registration fees are the responsibility of the buyer pursuant to their home state requirements. I have a clear title in my name. The vehicle is for sale locally so I have the right to end this auction at any time. If there is a qualifying bid then the ebay add will remain and the high bidder will own. |

Ford decides C-Max shoppers not interested in fuel economy
Sat, Oct 25 2014If you say a car – the Ford C-Max Hybrid, for example – is "fun to drive," can anyone really come up with some empirical evidence against your claim? What about calling it "versatile"? We wonder if Ford has been thinking along these lines when it talks about the green little hatch. Ford is refocusing its sales strategy for the C-Max Hybrid after the model took a sales hit on both sides of the Atlantic recently, Automotive News reports. That sales dropoff may stem from the fact that Ford has had to revise its fuel-economy figures downward for the C-Max twice since last year, most recently in June. That made the company's once-proud fuel-economy comparisons with the Toyota Prius kind of pointless. Ford is going a different route, calling the model versatile (which, to be fair it was also doing a year ago), technologically advanced and fun to drive. Since the C-Max has about 50 more horsepower than the Prius, that last part may be true. Ford representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen about the mpg-mention-free advertising direction, but we will update this post if we hear back. Sales of the C-Max Hybrid have suffered in the US. Through September, Ford sold 15,245 C-Max Hybrids, down 36 percent from last year. We shall see if a new focus away from the car's lowered mpg numbers helps. At least Ford can be pleased with sales of the C-Max Energi Plug-in Hybrid, which are up 51 percent compared to 2013.
Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally lands on Google board
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally often referred to the Blue Oval as a technology company when he led the automaker. Now he'll be offering guidance to a different kind of technology firm: Google.
Mulally was appointed to Google's board of directors July 9, and late Tuesday, it was announced that he will serve on the company's audit committee. The veteran executive led Ford from September 2006 until he retired in June, succeeded by Mark Fields.
While Mulally will act as a board member - rather than in a managerial role - his presence adds credibility to Google's recently announced plans to produce an autonomous car. The ambitious program calls for 100 prototypes to begin testing later this summer. Production of the car is rumored to be in collaboration with a Detroit area performance company, Roush.
Toyota, Ford not interested in FCA merger
Mon, Jun 15 2015Sergio Marchionne will preach the benefits of mergers to anyone who'll listen, but his calls for industry consolidation may be falling on deaf ears. At least, that is, the ears of those who the Fiat Chrysler chief would most like to bend. Not only is General Motors uninterested, but according to The Detroit News, neither are Toyota or Ford. "It's something we would not be interested in," said Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Toyota Technical Center. "At 10 million (vehicles) we have enough scale right now to do what we need to do. There really would be no advantage for us." Toyota isn't the only one unenthused by the prospect of merging with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The Detroit News also reports that Ford, though it may yet to have been approached by Marchionne, wouldn't be interested either. "We're not a suitor for FCA," said Ford CFO Bob Shanks. "We don't see that type of opportunity as one that applies to us." With GM, Toyota, and Ford expressing disinterest in Marchionne's merger idea, the FCA chief will likely start looking elsewhere – or look for other ways to compel his primary candidate to reconsider. He may eventually find a partner – more likely in the Far East or within Europe – but it may not take the form of the major player Sergio has hoped for.
