Up for “Adoption” / Auction:

Note: Being sold locally as well so auction may end at anytime. Showing are available by appointment only.

This is a very cool little Ford 67 Fairlane 500 Sedan. It has been in our family for 21 years. We purchased the car in 1993 out of an estate sale near Dodge City, KS where it had been parked in a garage for 12 years. Yes, it can snow in Kansas too.

The car has only seen the late spring, summer, and early fall sun since we have owned it and always garaged or stored inside. I put her up on jack stands 15 years ago thinking my son would want her at some point. Well, there I go thinking again... Last year it was moved to a new location and was garaged. I changed the oil and with some minor brake bleeding and fresh fuel it fired right up and drove around the block.

To date since last summer the gas tank has been flushed. New Master Brake Cylinder and new Rear Wheel Cylinders and New Battery have been installed. New in the box front wheel cylinders, new in the box distributer cap go with the car. All OEM type parts.

The car has had one repaint about 20 years ago, now some rust is showing in the left rear quarter in front of the tire, and the right front behind the tire. The driver’s side floors seem pretty solid. The passenger side front floor is rusted out at the firewall, but from there back is pretty solid. Absolutely nothing serious. The shock towers, trunk drop offs, trunk pan, rocker panels, frame rails, rear quarter wheel lips , and all other vital areas seem very solid and intact.

The paint is dead, faded with chips, peeling, and old faded finish.

Panels have some nicks, dings, scrapes, and dents.

The windshield has a clip, rest of the glass is good.

The interior is excellent and complete. The dealer installed seat covers have been removed from the front, and the still remain on rear seat.

AM Radio works.

Extra rims and tires are in the Trunk.

The car shifts great and the engine runs very well.

Clean Title.

Kindly do not bid unless you intend to complete your obligation as this is a binding contract as intended by eBay.

Immediate non-refundable $500.00 deposit due via Paypal at end of auction (burned with a no show last fall, cost me money, storage, and time). Balance due in cash when car is picked up. Car is located in zip code 61523, about 15 miles north of Peoria, IL.

Good luck Bidding and Thank you for looking!

Ford says 70% of its models to get stop-start by 2017

Sun, 15 Dec 2013

Ford is following up on a report we posted a few weeks back that the Blue Oval would be adding stop-start technology to its entire model range. Now, the Dearborn-based automaker has announced that the fuel-saving feature would be available on 70 percent of the company's range by 2017.
Ford claims the technology will improve fuel economy by around 3.5 percent, although its actual effect will vary based on how the owner drives - apparently up to a 10-percent improvement is possible for those who sit in heavy traffic (Los Angelenos, this means you). The latest recipient of the technology is the updated 2014 Ford Fiesta with the company's three-cylinder EcoBoost powerplant.
Part of the reasoning for the new addition has to do with cost. Ford claims the tech is affordable and easy to implement. "Simply put, Auto Start-Stop helps customers use less fuel, which is an important component of Ford's Blueprint for Sustainability," Ford's global powertrain vice president, Bob Fascetti, said.

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.

Ford Mustang EcoBoost has fake engine soundtrack

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost represents a huge change for the Blue Oval as the first pony car in decades to be available with a four-cylinder engine. But a recent tweet (below) from Road & Track raised our curiosity about the new vehicle. Editor Jason Cammisa pulled a fuse while driving the latest 'Stang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, and he found that both the stereo and engine went quiet in the cabin. That indicated the coupe might have some form of artificial engine sound being piped in - a feature not previously heavily reported for the model. Autoblog spoke with Ford engineer Shawn Carney who confirmed that only the turbocharged four-cylinder Mustang comes with this system, called Active Noise Control.
