1957 FORD FAIRLANE CLUB VICTORIA
If you're in the market for a pristine garage queen, this is not the car for you, but if you are looking for a sharp looking, nice driving affordable classic, here it is! This 1957 Fairlane 500 was built in the Dallas, Texas plant on July 24, 1957. It is equipped with a 292 cu engine, producing 206 hp and a 3 speed manual transmission. Options include a 3.56 to 1 axle ratio. It was originally Colonial White with a White vinyl and Red Silver Shadow fabric interior.
This Ford starts up with no hesitation, runs very smoothly and shifts nearly effortlessly. It is a great car on the highway. Having moved it out of storage after this winter, there were no noticeable leaks.
We purchased this car with the intention of restoring the interior, as the previous owner completed the exterior paint and chrome. Panel fit is good, with consistent gaps. As you can see in the photos, those good intentions never materialized. Both the chrome bumpers look great; they are straight and clean with no noticeable dents or dings. Lights and lenses are all in excellent condition.There is a crack in the driver's door glass, and the interior needs to be properly finished. There are no interior door panels present. They were not with the car when we purchased it. The car also needs a headliner and seats recovered. The front bench is present, but the seat feels hard like a sheet of plywood covered up with padding. The reason for this is because it IS a sheet of plywood covered up with padding! The exhaust is newer as well as the fuel tank.

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
