hello up for bid is a 1964 fairlane 500 4 door sedan . this car starts runs and drives great. It starts and idles like a pickle seeder. The transmission and brakes work well . The radio plays , the fan blows and horn work all gauges and indicators work even the gas gauge! This car is in fantastic shape for its age . the doors open and close very nicely , very solid .It has an inline 6 engine that I think is a 200 cubic inch but not positive the car shows 49xxx miles on it , I cant verify that is correct but I wouldn't be surprised if it is . I bought the car last fall to use as a parts donor car for a thunderbolt clone project but the car is way to nice to part out .the interior is super nice for its age as well .the dash has a few cracks and the carpet is faded . The previous owner had used it daily driver until he took a job out of town and bought a newer car . the car is very solid exept for the floorboards and the bottom of the front fenders. there is also rust above the rear wheel openings , the trunk looks very solid. It does have an exhaust leak ,it sounds like its coming from where the pipe connects to the manifold . I haven't messed with it though. please look at the pics and ask questions call or text 765-918-8650 . the car can sit here for 1 year if needed for pickup please plan to settle within 7 days paypal deposit is preferred thanks for looking and check my other auctions

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.
