1964 Ford Fairlane 500 four door sedan.  This car was stored in a dairy barn since 1979.  The gentleman that originally owned the vehicle replaced the original 260 V8 engine with a 289 Special that he had acquired from a wrecked low mileage 65-66 Mustang.  The reason he changed the engine was because the original 260 threw its oil pump through the oil pan.  The car has not run since 1979 and appears to be very solid.  The floors and the trunk compartment are solid with no rust through.  The front fenders have some minor rust holes coming in the lower sections.  The inner fender at the battery box is rusted out, but all the shock towers are solid with not signs of visible rust.  The left rear quarter panel was damaged in the late 1970s, and the owner attempted to beat the fender back out.  There is no sign of rot in the rear quarters.  The under carriage including all boxed framing appears to be solid and complete.  There are some parts missing from the car and I have no idea what the gentleman did with the parts.  The parts that are missing from what I can see is the master cylinder, power steering pump, headlight bezels, hubcaps, spare tire, jack, and the grille.  Although there is a grille in the trunk which is in good condition, it appears the grille is from a 1963 Fairlane rather than the 64.  There is an extra set of taillights in the trunk as well as a few other parts that goes with the vehicle.  All of the glasses are in good shape, but the exhaust system has deteriorated.  The car is not running and has not been started since 1979, so please be advised that this is not a vehicle that someone can drive away.  It will require towing and time to get it back into running condition.  I am including enough pictures to give an accurate depiction of the overall condition of the vehicle.  Please take the time to study the pictures and ask questions prior to bidding.  All questions will be answered honestly and as accurately as possible.

The vehicle is currently being sold as-is and where-is with no warranty implied or expressed.  Make sure to ask any and all questions prior to bidding on this vehicle.  A deposit of $200.00 dollars will be required within 3 days from the close of auction.  The buyer is responsible for shipping and transport.  The high bidder can make additional arrangements with seller if both agree.  Full payment is required within 7 days of auction's close.  Cash or Cashiers Check/Money Order.

Ford promises 12 new global performance vehicles through 2020

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Ford just keeps rolling out the big announcements today. We've already told you about the next-gen Focus RS coming to the US and the upcoming Sync 3 infotainment system. And this latest one should perk up the ears of racing fans or anyone who enjoys an enthusiastic drive (basically, all Autoblog readers). The Blue Oval says it has "more than 12" new performance vehicles on the way globally through 2020. Unfortunately, the only one that the automaker confirms at the moment is the Focus RS, but recent rumors might suggest a few others. Ford reportedly has the Shelby Mustang GT350R, next-gen F-150 Raptor and a Ford GT successor all on the way, all of which could possibly debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. The future GT might even take the company back to racing at Le Mans. Speaking of motorsports, Ford is also blending its performance vehicle and racing efforts worldwide into a unified entity by combining SVT, Team RS and Ford Racing into a new organization called Ford Performance. It's responsible not just for excelling on the track but also for developing aero improvements, electronics, powertrain and lightweight tech for the Blue Oval's vehicles. "Our new global Ford Performance team ties together racing, performance vehicles and parts. It will allow us to more quickly introduce products and accessories that meet the needs of customers around the world on-road and on the track," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development, in the company's press release. The automaker thinks this market might be booming, especially among younger buyers. For example, recent data shows Millennials buy ST models at twice the rate of the rest of Ford's cars. Scroll down to read the Blue Oval's full announcement of the new division and the plan to get excited about things to come. FORD DRIVING PERFORMANCE INNOVATION TO NEW LEVELS; MORE THAN 12 VEHICLES COMING FROM NEW GLOBAL TEAM Ford bringing more global performance vehicles to customers worldwide; more than 12 new performance vehicles through 2020 – including Focus RS – to be available globally Ford uniting regional performance engineering and racing teams as one global team under Ford Performance, delivering more new vehicles and parts, more quickly Ford will deliver more than 12 new performance vehicles for global enthusiasts through 2020, as the company announced today its new global Ford Performance team.

Shelby Cobra, Mercedes 300SL and 1947 Woodie from Petersen Museum headed to auction

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

The changes happening at the Petersen Museum have been making the rounds in major press, but it probably won't be until August 18, during Pebble Beach, when we get the full story on what's happening; that's where and when museum reps plan on announcing the way forward for the SoCal institution. In the meantime, the museum is still reorganizing its collection, and that means auctioning some of its showpieces at this weekend's Auctions America event in Burbank.
Three of the stars are a 1964 Shelby Cobra 289, one of less than 20 produced with a three-speed C-4 automatic transmission, a 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL owned by actor Robert Stack and the last 1948 Ford Sportsman 'Woodie' ever produced. The Cobra, now restored to its original white exterior and red leather interior, was a factory demonstrator that first sold for $5,250. Showing just 38,950 miles on the odometer, its pre-sale estimate is $800,000 to $1 million.
The 300SL is actually a 1957 model but wasn't titled until Robert Stack took possession in 1960. The lead actor in the The Untouchables TV series used to drive by the Sunset Boulevard Mercedes dealership to ogle the car, but couldn't justify spending the money to buy it. When he and the producer of The Untouchables won Emmys for the show, the producer, who happened to be Desi Arnaz, bought the car for Stack. He owned it his whole life, it has been left as Stack drove it and still bears the California license plate "UNTCHBL."

Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.
