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

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
Weekly Recap: Ferrari, Ford and Porsche power up for Geneva
Sat, Feb 7 2015Monday was Groundhog Day. Tuesday, apparently, was Sports Car Day. The Ferrari 488 GTB, the Ford Focus RS and the Porsche Cayman GT4 all debuted within hours of each other ahead of their rollouts at the Geneva Motor Show. Three sporty machines, three vastly different approaches – and a lot of implications for enthusiasts. That's a day worth repeating. It also illustrates the opportunities automakers see in the performance market, which is expected to grow in the coming years. Ford estimates the segment has expanded 14 percent in Europe and surged 70 percent in North America since 2009. The Detroit Auto Show was evidence of this, and performance cars of every stripe debuted, including the Acura NSX, Ford GT, Alfa Romeo 4C Spider and several others. This isn't a fad. Performance cars aren't going away. The question is why? Stricter CAFE standards are looming in the United States, as are tighter emissions regulations in Europe. And no one expects gas prices to remain low in America. None of this matters for sports cars, and automakers are increasingly using them to elevate their images. That's why Dodge rolled out two 707-horsepower Hellcats last year. It's why Ford has decided to resurrect the GT for road and track. It's why in the depths of bankruptcy, General Motors continued work on the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, not to mention the Z06. "Great brands are made one car at a time," Ford of Europe president Jim Farley said at the reveal of the Focus RS. Still, companies make those cars for different reasons. View 5 Photos Mainstream brands like Ford and Dodge want to build cars that get people talking, excite their bases and drive more potential customers into the showroom. They probably don't buy a Focus RS or a Hellcat, but suddenly the regular Focus hatch looks a bit hotter, and that V6 Charger seems to be just a touch more muscular. The halo of performance is alive and well in the eyes of automakers and their customers. "It's one of the most effective catalysts for ingenuity and innovation," said Joe Bakaj, vice president of product development for Ford of Europe. That also leads to a trickle-down effect. Some of the technologies inevitably make their way to other products. It's hard to think the new all-wheel-drive system in the Focus RS that distributes torque front to rear and side to side won't be used in other vehicles. It's different for Ferrari and Porsche.
