This auction is for a completely rebuilt 1967 Ford Fairlane 500. Its a pillar-less car, factory original Fairlane 500. Its been completely rebuilt from top the bottom with no expense spared. The car can be driven, and is actually very reliable. It has been driven to quite a few shows and holds up very nicely on the open road. There is a vintage AC system installed, as well as a modern audio system (factory original head unit is still in place). I will attempt to describe this vehicle as thoroughly as possible, I have also attached quite a few pictures and I advise you to look through them. This car is breath taking in person.
Link to more pictures of the car, including the undercarriage while on a lift: here Link to the build documentation and Dyno Sheet specifically: here Engine: Completely rebuilt, balanced, blueprinted and dyno'd 418 cubic inch Windsor stroker V8 producing a verified 472 HP and 482.9 lbs of torque. I have the receipts and documentation for the engine build by Jessie Holmes Performance. The build ticket is included in the pictures and gives a VERY thorough explanation of the parts used to create this monster. All of this power is put through the C4 Performance Transmission with Torque Converter. This engine has had everything replaced, rebuilt and upgraded to create an absolutely ferocious and fast engine. Over $12,000 was spent on the engine alone. **Build Sheet included w/ a thorough documentation of parts used in the above link** Interior: Completely redone in black synthetic leather, new carpet, new seat padding and stereo. The chrome and dash have been completely restored. The door cards have been restored. An aftermarket automatic shift handle is located between the seats, as well as a high end Sony CD Head unit. The factory original head unit is still present in its original location. Exterior: Professional repainted. All of the chrome has been completely restored. The paint looks fantastic. The chrome shines. The Ram Air hood fits around the big 850 CFM Carb and looks great. This car looks as good as it sounds, and drives even better. The car is located in Baltimore, MD. It is definitely worth coming to see in person. Its gorgeous. 470+ HP! Not a penny was spared during the restoration, and the best part is - YOU CAN DRIVE IT ANYWHERE!

2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings
Mon, 29 Sep 2014While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.
2015 Ford Mustang vs. Camaro and Challenger [w/poll]
Thu, 17 Jul 2014The horsepower wars are tightening among the Detroit Three, as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger are getting bigger, more powerful, and yes, more fuel efficient.
That came into sharper focus this week as more information was revealed about the most insane Challenger ever - the 707-horsepower Hellcat - followed quickly by Ford's in-depth showcase of the 2015 Mustang in Dearborn.
It's shaping up to be a golden age for enthusiasts, and what's under the hood is becoming more important than ever.
Ford profits soar as problems mount
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Ford is doing well. It can't make enough examples of its new Fusion, it can barely make enough of the aging F-150, it's getting good brand rankings, people like its turnaround story, it's selling oodles of product and its quarterly profit numbers end in the word "billion." As other high-flying examples have demonstrated over the past few years, though, big numbers can come with problems that aren't exactly small.
Automotive News has published a good "nutshell" report of Ford's progress and problems. The Dearborn automaker's optimistic "general label rule" determination of gas mileage for the C-Max Hybrid has led to lawsuits, hybrid software updates, a downward revision of C-Max fuel economy and millions in rebates. AN notes the C-Max was the "worst-scoring model in this year's J.D. Power Initial Quality Study," but Ford will probably be happy that it managed not to be mentioned further in the study's results after last year's mediocre showing. Its MyTouch and SYNC systems, the bugbears sabotaging Ford's J.D. Power results, have also led to lawsuits, software updates, more software updates and a center console rethink. On top of that, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the 2013 Ford Escape that Ford called a "hero" was soon catching fire for three different reasons. And let's not even get into the troubled launch of the Lincoln MKZ.
The Automotive News piece notes that industry observers have been surprised at Ford's stumbles because everything has been looking so good. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of those billions in profits - the company is doing plenty of things, plural, right. Ford says it is tackling its problems, hiring engineers and instituting new quality control processes as part of its effort to find solutions. The test will be to see if in a year from now we begin the discussion of these issues with "Remember when Ford...", or "Problems continue at The Blue Oval."
