For sale, with no reserve, is my 1959 Ford Fairlane project/parts car.
I won this car in a Poker game back 2006 and it was driving. I drove for a year or two then started to tear down to do some restoration and engine work.The car was complete when I started and I have every part including nuts and bolts that I didn't have to torch off. I had pulled the engine block and had a machine shop do the boring and honing on the cylinders, I have the motor half put back together with new pistons, camshaft and remanufactured crankshaft. That's about where I stopped as I had to take a job out of state but still live in KY. So no more time to mess with it and also need to make more room for wife's new car.
The body is sketchy in places but it did go through some half-ass restoration back about 20 years ago the original owner told me. The interior has been completely torn out but I have all the seat frames but not the door panels as they were trash. I saved some of the material to match.The car has a clear Florida Title.
I have tons of pictures I have taken. They are all at: http://s1359.beta.photobucket.com/user/CMLINDGREN13/library/?evt=email_share
Winner of this no reserve auction will need to pickup the car, parts and take it all away.
Any other questions please fell free to email me.
Almost forgot the best part ... THE CAR'S CLAIM TO FAME IS THAT IT HAS BEEN TURNED DOWN BY RICHARD RAWLINGS AND "GAS MONKEY GARAGE" NOT ONCE BUT TWICE NOW as a FREE donation to them. Too far for them to come get it as I was told. Oh well no super stardom for this ride.

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:
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."
