1957 Ford Fairlane Nascar Tribute To Fireball Roberts. Totally Street Legal. Wow on 2040-cars
Wilmington, North Carolina, United States
You are looking at an amazing example of a tribute to the racing legend Fireball Roberts. This car is started it's life in Florida and now lives in NC. It was rust free and solid before the restoration and has been kept in doors ever since. We made every effort to maintain the theme of a period correct convertable series race car while making this car a street legal driver. This car has: A rebuilt correct 312 Y block motor. Correct 3 speed column shifter. We replace the trasmission with a 67 mustang full synchro transmission for much better drivability and endurance. It has a 4 barrell Holly carb, an electronic ignition under the cap, rebuilt brakes, hidden head lights, a push button ignition system, complete dyna-mat insulation and sound proofing. We preserved or replace all the chrome and preserved all the body molding. We added air controlled rear shocks, and installed a period correct roll cage was installed. The windsheild is perfect and there are no major defects anywhere. This car is not perfect but it's pretty cool to say the least. Everywhere we go the car draws huge crowds and the stories start from there. We recently had the car in Daytona for speed week, it was a hit and will be featured in thier yearly catalog for racing history. We had many racing legends come by and visit and even had them sign the trunk lid of the car. This is NOT a stressed sale so please don't be silly with offers or expectaions. We went to great lengths to make this car fun, drivable and a tribute to a legend. We won't give it away!

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
