1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Hardtop Coupe 289 V8 No Reserve on 2040-cars
Clifton, New Jersey, United States
Up for sale is my 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Hardtop Coupe with Cruise-o-matic (automatic) transmission. I am selling it because I have no time to enjoy it and finish it. It was rarely used. It has a 289 (4.7L) small block, power steering, and heat. It starts on the first try, drives straight as an arrow, and runs and shifts excellent. It has straight pipes and it sounds awesome. Radio cassette with auxiliary jack and Schosche rear speakers.
Brand new items that I have bought...15"inch U.S. Mag chrome wheels with new Fuzion 225 rears and 215 fronts, Holley electric choke 4 barrel carburetor and Edelbrock manifold, custom headliner, 1 reproduction in-dash front and 2 Scosche rear speakers, 2 new front seat belts, door lock knobs, reproduction front speaker, dome lens and base, full tune up, complete set of door, trunk and glove box locks, chrome thermostat housing and other items. Some original parts that will be included...steering wheel horn and cap, original manifold and 2 barrel carb, some chrome trim and letters, etc. The wheels were non-original rusted chrome steelies, therefore I had to replace them. Sun visors will be included but are not covered with vinyl. What it needs...New paint. The horn needs to be connected to the steering wheel. It has a working air horn with button on the dash. It needs to be tuned because when you depress the pedal all the way at low RPMs, it wants to turn off. Other wise it drives great. The rear lights don't work. They did not too long ago. I suspect it was when I was messing around with the cables as I was cleaning the rear tail light chrome. Front speaker needs to be connected. Passenger door opens from the inside but as I mentioned, new locks will be included. Fuel and temp gauge do not work. Thanks and good luck! This car is sold as-is where-is and has no written or implied warranty. Local pick-up or your automobile transport company. Not responsible for shipping arrangements. |

Shelby GT350 to be auctioned for charity at Barrett-Jackson in January
Fri, Dec 26 2014If you just have to be the first person in the world to possess the latest Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, then you need to be bidding during the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ, on January 17. That's because Ford is offering the chance to own the inaugural production example of its latest premiere pony car there. The buyer of the first GT350 gets to choose from any color and all of the available packages for their car. Although, the real highlight is probably being among the first to listen to the 5.2-liter V8 under the hood with its flat-plane crankshaft. Ford promises that the mill makes over 500 horsepower and more than 400 pound-feet of torque. To sweeten the deal even further, all of the proceeds of the sale go to the JDRF, a charity that funds type 1 diabetes research. There's no reserve on the auction for the GT350 but don't expect a bargain. Last year, the first 2015 'Stang raised $300,000 for the JDRF at the Barrett-Jackson sale, and the initial Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 brought in $650,000 for charity. You can read Ford's entire announcement about the event below. FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO SELL NEW SHELBY GT350 MUSTANG AT BARRETT-JACKSON SCOTTSDALE AUCTION TO BENEFIT JDRF First publicly available production unit of the all-new Shelby GT350® Mustang to be auctioned by Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction, with all proceeds benefiting JDRF Winning bidder will be able to choose from available colors and packages for Shelby GT350 Ford-sponsored ride-and-drives during the auction will feature a full lineup of 2015 vehicles Ford Motor Company will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the legendary Shelby GT350 Mustang by auctioning the first production unit of the new-generation car available to the public for charity at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Live coverage of the auction of the Shelby GT350 will air on Velocity on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2015. The winning bidder of lot No. 3008 – selling at No Reserve – will become owner of the coveted first retail production unit of Ford Shelby GT350, and choose from available Shelby GT350 colors and packages. In January 1964, Carroll Shelby and Ford Motor Company forever altered the automotive industry with the introduction of the GT350. It was offered through Ford dealers from 1965 through 1970.
Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with
Mon, 12 May 2014Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.
