EM2 RESTORATIONS IS RELISTING THIS AWESOME 1967 FAIRLANE R CODE TRIBUTE DUE TO EBAY TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. THE CAR CAME TO US FROM TEXAS IN 2008. WE KEPT IT GARAGED AND CODDLED UNTIL 2013 WHEN WE DECIDED TO SELL IT. WE HAD IT THROUGH 2 MOVES AND WE JUST CAN'T AFFORD THE SPACE IN OUR DOWNSIZED SHOP. WE'RE GOING TO TELL ABOUT THE BODY FIRST:

THE BODY IS 100% RUST FREE AND GORGEOUS. THE PAINT HAS GARNERED BEST PAINT AWARDS . THE COLOR "DARK IRIS MIST" IS A HIGH METALLIC THAT IS ABSOLUTELY STELLAR. ALL THE BRITEWORK IS ORIGINAL AND IN NEAR FLAWLESS CONDITION. THE TRIPLE CHROM PLATED BUMPERS ARE CONCOURSE.THE PREVIOUS OWNER IN TEXAS SPENT A LOT OF YEARS AND A BAZILLION HOURS GETTING THIS CAR TO THE CONDITION IT IS IN TODAY. WE LOVE THE WAY IT TURNED OUT COSMETICALLY AND MECHANICALLY. WE ARE TOLD BY KIRK MORGAN, THE PREVIOUS OWNER THAT THE HOOD IS AN ACTUAL FOMOCO "R" CODE HOOD. ALL THE PANELS FIT EXCEPTIONALLY WELL . IT'S NO WONDER ALL THE TROPHIES WERE AWARDED TO THIS BAD BOY!

THE ENGINE IS WHERE THIS BAD BOY GETS BAAAAD! IT'S A C6AE-H 427 SIDEOILER THAT HAS BEEN STROKED WITH A U1 428 COBRA JET CRANKSHAFT, BORED .030 OVER, BALANCED, BLUEPRINTED, PORT MATCHED C8-AX TUNNELWEDGE, NEW DUAL 650 CFM HOLLEY RACE QUADS, HOOKER COMPETITION HEADERS, GRIFFIN RADIATOR, 11.5:1 DOMED HYPERTETIC PISTONS, AND FULL RACE 79CC EDELBROCK ALUMINUM HEADS WITH HARDENED SEATS AND MANLEY SS VALVES. THE BENCHFLOWING ALONE WAS EXPENSIVE BUT WORTH EVERY DUCKET. THE FINISHED ATTIRE FOR THE SIDEOILER IS VINTAGE 427 DRESSING. THE 427 IS MATED TO A LENTECH STREET TERMINATOR AOD AUTOMATIC WITH HIGH CAPACITY TRICK FLOW ALUMINUM RACE PAN. THESE ARE TOUGHER THAN WHALE SNOT AND BUILT TO BE POUNDED BY EXTREME HORSEPOWER.

THE CHASSIS IS MINI TUBBED AND FRAME TIED. THE LADDER BARS ARE CHROMED AND THE HOOK-UP FOR THE WHEELIE BARS IS MOUNTED. THE FUEL CELL IS A 20 GALLON CERTIFIED CELL WITH FOAM BAFFLE. THE TRUNK MOUNTED BATTERY IS HOOKED TO 2 GA. CABLES WITH QUICK DISCONNECTS AND THE DUAL HIGH FLOW RUSSEL FUEL LINES ARE HOOKED TO A HOLLEY RACE FUEL PUMPS. THE MUFFLERS KEEP IT JUST ABOUT AS QUIET AS A 747 ON TAKEOFF. IT WON'T RATTLE WINDOWS IF IT'S A COUPLE HUNDRED FEET AWAY. THE WHEELS ARE POLISHED ALUMINUM WELD RACELITES IN A UNILUG PATTERN WITH THE FRONT BEING 6" AND THE REAR BEING 15" WIDE. GIVES IT A VERY PRONOUNCED STANCE TO SAY THE LEAST. THE TIRES ARE 215-75R15 PRO-TRAC COMPETITION IN THE FRONT AND 29-15.50 X15 COMPETITION SPORTSMAN RACE TIRES IN THE REAR. THE ROLL CAGE IS A WORK OF STRUCTURAL ART AND IT BLENDS EFFECTIVELY WITH THE STOCK LOOKING CUSTOM BLACK GT INTERIOR.

THIS BEAUTIFUL FAIRLANE HAS ALL THE ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONING INCLUDING HORN, TURN SIGNALS, GAUGES, TACH, WIPERS, (IT'S A HEATER DELETE CAR NOW) AND LIGHTING. EVEN THE DOME LIGHT FUNCTIONS CORRECTLY. IT'S AN AWESOME STREET LEGAL BLUE OVAL PRODUCT THAT WILL WAKE UP THE WALTER MITTY IN JUST ABOUT ANYONE. PERIOD END

DISCLAIMERS:

THE ABOVE MENTIONED R CODE TRIBUTE 1967 FAIRLANE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS" AND "WHERE IS" AND IT IS A STREET LEGAL RACE CAR THAT RUNS ON HIGH OCTANE FUEL. DON'T GO TO THE LOCAL AM-PM FOR 87 OCTANE FUEL FOR THIS BAD BOY. IF YOU DO, IT WILL FART AND BLOW YOU OUT THE WINDOW. THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED AND THIS TOY "IS WHAT IT IS" AND NOTHING MORE. NO PICTURE CAN TAKE THE PLACE OF A PERSONAL INSPECTION SO FEEL FREE TO CALL 503 793 0204 AND ASK FOR MARTY TO GET AN APPOINTMENT TO INSPECT THIS FAIRLANE. THIS CAR IS PROBABLY NOT SUITED WELL FOR THE FAINT OF HEART OR THE "ALMOST A MECHANIC" TYPE OF WEEKEND WARRIOR. IT IS AN EXPENSIVE TOY. PERIOD. ADDITIONAL PICS AND INFO ARE AVAILABLE ON THE EM2COOL WEBSITE. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
