Bellingham, Washington, United States

Thanks for looking at my auction up for bid tonight is a car I am selling for a friend...1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sedan. Presently I am using the car for a daily driver and it runs great. This car has had an excellent start to restoration. The following is a list of items that have already been completed... Engine and transmission rebuilt New seats and dash done New exhaust system (dual exhaust) New voltage regulator New Battery New fuel pump - mechanical New fuel sending unit (although not entirely happy with how it sends the signal to the gas gauge on the dash The car had been painted but it is my daily driver and needs a good cleaning/polishing New plugs, wires, coil and distributor New master cylinder and brakes done all the way around (including wheel cylinders) Rebuilt carb Just replaced the brushes in the generator
I know I have spent way too much money as I have spent more than $3500 on the seats and dash alone. Now is the time for someone to carry on and finish the restoration. Unfortunately I am running out of money and don't want to see this wasted. The upholstery guy scratched the car on both sides (see pics) and then went out of business. Till it was used for a daily driver it was stored in a warehouse for more than 15 years. The body is pretty straight there is a dent in the back bumper and trim piece but as well there is a small dent in the front grill (see pics) Things I know for sure that I would do is replace the tires and the shocks and leaf springs...they had been replaced before but they are noisy right now and the leaf springs look like they have flattened out. I HAVE THE CLEAR TITLE SIGNED AND READY TO BE TRANSFERED TO THE NEXT OWNER I love driving this car...the heat works great the heater ducts have just been worked on to work better on Monday! The fan is in great condition. There is no rust through........there are a few spots of minor rust starting to bubble but not very big in size. It has a 260 cu inch engine that purrs like a kitten. Pump the gas once and turn key and starts perfectly. I noticed too that the pics do not show a air cleaner but I have a air cleaner that is now on the car (after market)
This car gets noticed every where I drive it.
Any questions feel free to ask.

I WILL BE WILL TO ASSIST WITH WORKING WITH ANY TRANSPORT COMPANY (YOUR COST).

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial
Wed, 28 May 2014How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
