1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Automatic 289 4.7 Power Steering Brakes Front Disc Ac Vgc on 2040-cars
Palm Coast, Florida, United States
We have owned this beauty for five years. It has been a daily driver for my wife. We have put about 60k miles on it since purchasing. Runs good, sounds good. Excellent starting point for a complete restoration. She is ready for a different toy.
I personally sanded the entire car down three years ago for paint. Body is solid. No rust on the body. Some minor rust under front floorboards. Less than 1 cup of body filler on the entire car. Truly an excellent Georgia car. Recently replaced all four tires, rear brakes, rear wheel bearing on passenger side, carpet is new, battery is less than a year old, power steering pump was replaced about two years ago. The interior was redone before we bought it. The dashboard and door panels are very nice. The dash board has not been cut. The stereo is mounted under the air conditioner. Still has the original radio. The engine runs strong. About due for a tune up, starting to get a little hesitation. We have been back and forth to Georgia several times. It rides beautifully on the open highway. Here's the ugly. The antenna is broken. The seats and interior are in good shape. The front seat has one split seam. The pulley on the power steering is warped, it wobbles. Apparently it finally wore out the seal. It leaks fluid. The AC compressor will need to be replaced. AC not working now. The steering is sloppy. The tie rods and bushings seem solid, the steering box seems to be the issue. The flywheel was replaced with a cheap one last year. Not well balanced. It shakes some from that. The horn contact plate is worn out. Horn doesn't work. All in all, this is a great car. We honestly don't care if we sell it or not. Just thinking it's time for a new toy. Might flex on the price. Cash talks. Also willing to consider a partial trade on an older VW convertible or another convertible. Not looking for an even trade. There will be cash involved. Getting ready for a project car. I will get more pictures up ASAP. |

Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.
2015 Ford F-150 appearance guide takes the truck from mild to wild with options
Thu, 31 Jul 2014We already know that the 2015 Ford F-150 has a base price coming in at just $395 more than the 2014 model, despite all of the new standard tech and aluminum-intensive construction in the upcoming version. Now the Blue Oval is finally giving us an idea of what that extra money actually buys customers, with the release of the appearance guide for its latest pickup.
The guide basically explains everything you could want to know about what changes occur among the multitude of trims on the 2015 F-150. There are five levels for the new truck. Although, that is something of a misnomer because most of them are also available with either Sport or Chrome packages, plus the FX4 Off-Road option with Hill Descent Control, an electronic-locking rear axle, off-road shocks and skid plates. With 13 available colors, including 4 new ones, and 14 wheel designs in various sizes, pickup buyers should have no problem specing one to fit their style.
The lineup starts out with the base XL with a black grille and fascia and 17-inch wheels. However, across most of the range the Sport and Chrome packages are also available to add either body-color or chrome accents, respectively. Next up is the XLT with a standard chrome grille but also available with a black, billet-style one with a body-color surround. Things really start getting plush with the Lariat model with leather trim, a three-bar front end and 18-inch wheels. The King Ranch sticks with that look but adds power running boards, 20-inch wheels and two-tone paint. Finally, the top-dog Platinum is all about bling with yet another frontal design, chrome door handles and mirror caps, a big logo running across the tailgate and more.
Ford Ranger-based 7-seat SUV spotted testing
Wed, 29 May 2013Ford looks to be working on a new SUV version of its global Ranger pickup truck. An early prototype of a seven-passenger SUV based on the Ranger has been spotted testing in Australia, and word has it buyers in the region could expect to see the model in showrooms as soon as 2014, where it could sail under the Endeavour or Everest badges. Ford Australia currently sells the Territory SUV, so there's some chance that this model could be a successor to that throne, as well.
Whatever it's called, the long-roof Ranger will feature a shorter wheelbase and more ground clearance than its pickup twin, giving the machine a bit more off-road functionality. (And here we thought we couldn't want the global Ranger any more than we already do.) While this particular vehicle sports a Territory back half grafted onto a Ranger front end, odds are a public reveal of the finished product could occur as soon as the second half of 2014, making it a 2015 model.
