1957 FORD FAIRLANE CLUB VICTORIA (Model 63B)

I am listing this vehicle with no reserve for my brother, T.J. Cerny. Please contact him directly at 208.771.0912 for more information about the car and specific payment requirements.

*** THIS CAR IS LOCATED IN POST FALLS IDAHO (NEAR SPOKANE WA) ***

This ’57 Fairlane is essentially the twin to the one I owned and sold on eBay a couple of years ago, so I’m very familiar with ’57 Fords, and this one in particular. Mine brought over $20,000 and was the less desirable Club Sedan Tudor Post (Model 64A)… so bid accordingly on this pillarless Club Victoria Tudor Hardtop. This sweet little ’57 is a pleasure to drive and garners much attention at car shows and cruise-ins. It’s not a trailer queen, but far more show-worthy and pristine than a typical “driver”. The total number of miles on this vehicle is unknown.

BODY – Super straight and rust free sheet metal with a few subtle modifications including a ’58 hood and frenched headlights (original hood and headlight assemblies are included with the car). The bumpers have been rechromed and the stainless trim is nearly flawless.

PAINT – Older repaint in the original colors of Starmist Blue and Colonial White. Still looks great and holds a beautiful shine.

GLASS – New windshield, quarter and wing window glass. Back glass is nearly flawless.

INTERIOR – Seats, carpet, trim panels and kick panels tastefully redone in a non-stock pattern. Excellent original headliner and dash.

ENGINE & DRIVE TRAIN – Strong 292 Y-Block Thunderbird engine with 2 BBL carburetor and dual exhaust, 3-speed Ford O Matic transmission, new u-joints.

ELECTRICAL & ACCESSORIES – Recent battery, generator converted to alternator, vacuum windshield wiper system converted to electric, electronic ignition and AM-FM radio with cassette.

STEERING & SUSPENSION – Lowered rebuilt front end with Jamco springs, power rack & pinion steering conversion.

WHEELS & TIRES – American Racing Torque Thrust D rims with excellent radial tires. Stock wheels and wheelcovers included with the car.

DISCLAIMERS & OTHER STUFF – No overseas bidders please. Shipping is the buyer’s responsibility. The seller will be available for your shipper to load the vehicle, but assumes no responsibility for any damages incurred either during loading or while the vehicle is in transit.

A non-refundable deposit of $500 is due within 48 hours of the auction ending. Full payment must be received within 7 days of the auction ending, and must clear before the vehicle and title will be released. Payment method by wire transfer must be arranged directly with the seller as I’m only listing this vehicle and not involved with the actual transaction. Therefore, PayPal will not be accepted for any portion of this listing.

This vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is and there is no warranty expressed or implied. The seller strongly encourages a visual inspection of this vehicle by seriously interested bidders or a designated appointee by seriously interested bidders before this listing expires.

Ford Mustang GT500 successor spied near SVT

Tue, 17 Sep 2013

Details about the next-gen Ford Mustang are scarce, and there's even less information out there about the upcoming replacement for the Shelby GT500. Previously rumored to drop the Shelby name and wear the GT350 moniker, the highest-performance Mustang has just been spotted testing near Ford's SVT operations.
Despite being cloaked in heavy camouflage, we can instantly tell this prototype is different from other Mustang spy shots we've seen in the past. Aside from the Shelby-spec wheels, quad exhaust outlets (previous spy shots show only two) and beefier brakes, this car also has air intakes on the hood and front fenders. These elements help to neither prove nor dismiss rumors that the next SVT Mustang will be naturally aspirated. It also looks like Ford is may be planning some changes to this car's rear suspension, as there is some extra camouflage added beneath the rear end of this prototype.
As a bonus, these spy shots also give us our first look inside the new Mustang, revealing a new steering wheel (with more buttons) and a glimpse of the dual-pod instrument gauges. Check out past spy shots of the 2015 Mustang showing off its new face and driving around town.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla details factory expansion; Ford and SunPower raise money for Sierra Club

Thu, Nov 20 2014

Tesla has revealed the details of the upgrade of its Fremont, CA factory. One major change is the addition of a dedicated production space for the dual-motor P85D version of the Model S. Robots will be doing the battery installation on the Model S to save some time, and new export docks allow Tesla to get the cars out the door and on the way to their new owners more quickly. The new robots that move the cars around the factory have been named after X-Men characters, which makes our inner geeks smile. Check out the factory upgrade in the time-lapse video below and read more at Teslarati or at the Tesla Motors Blog. A program in Beijing for privileged registrations for EVs hasn't had much success. Of the 1,424 lottery winners, only about 30 percent went on to register an electric car despite a two-month extension of the deadline to do so. Buyers are likely discouraged by the lack of charging infrastructure, which the city hopes to ameliorate with the addition of 1,000 new charging stations by the end of the year, and by requiring new and renovated developments to set aside parking specifically for EV charging. Read more at Green Car Reports. The UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies suggests that laws designed to protect dealers and consumers are stymieing the adoption of EVs. Laws like the ones certain states have in place that block or otherwise restrict Tesla's direct-to-consumer business model are not helpful for companies that want to introduce new products to the market. They prevent companies from passing on savings to customers for whom they would likely make the difference in a purchasing decision. One possible solution would be to allow exemptions to certain selling restrictions for a certain number of vehicles sold. "This could give automakers the degree of control needed to work out kinks with early customers, develop scalable processes for supporting PEVs, and ensure that effective dealer performance standards are in place before handing the reins over to wholly independent retailers," according to UC Davis ITS. Read more at the UC Davis website. Volkswagen says its environmental program, called "Think Blue. Factory," is meeting the automaker's own sustainability targets. The main purpose of the program is to move toward eco-friendlier carmaking at each of its plants worldwide.

Ford recalls 382k vehicles across six campaigns

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Ford needs to repair a total of 381,633 vehicles in North America across six newly announced campaigns, including five safety recalls and one compliance recall. By far the largest of these campaigns covers the 342,271 examples of the 1998-2003 Windstar to double check an earlier recall repair. Among these, 283,413 are in the US and 58,858 are in Canada. The combination of corrosion and stress can cause cracks in the rear axle and eventually lead to the part to snap completely. The company reports a small number of accidents might be connected to this, but there are no injuries. The minivans were recalled for this issue back in 2010, and it was investigated by NHTSA. According to Ford's latest announcement, the reinforcement brackets on some of these models might not have been installed correctly. This time, dealers will perform an inspection. Minivans with incorrectly installed brackets will get a new rear axle. The rest of the owners will be offered a deal to replace the part at a reduced cost. The next largest campaign covers 36,857 examples of the 2015 F-150 to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control. Specifically, there are 33,481 affected trucks in the US, and 3,376 in Canada. According to Ford, "when passing a large, highly reflective truck" the radar in the system can misidentify a semi as being in the same lane as the pickup. The collision warning system would then activate, slowing the F-150. There's one report of an accident with this happening but no injuries. The fix is simply an update to the adaptive cruise control module software. Ford also has a recall for 1,477 examples of its 2016 F-53 and F-59 stripped chassis models, and they're all located in the US. A manufacturing issue might allow the trucks to shift into reverse without the driver first applying the brakes. There are no reports of any accidents from this, though. To repair the problem, the models get a new transmission shift control bracket and an adjustment to the shift cable. The Blue Oval's safety compliance recall covers 708 examples of the 2016 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, including 658 of them in the US, 28 in Canada, and 22 in Mexico. On these models, a manufacturing problem with the fuel tank could allow it to crack in a crash, which isn't allowed under federal rules. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires. The fix will be a new fuel tank for all of them. The company is also repairing 251 units of the 2015 Taurus and Lincoln MKS, plus the 2016 Explorer.
