1967 Ford Fairlane 500xl 6.4l on 2040-cars
Hayden, Idaho, United States
This is a 1967 Ford Fairlane GTA ALL ORIGINAL with 83,000
ORIGINAL miles. Never been restored and all NUMBERS MATCHING. This car was
rarely driven and spent its whole life in a heated garage. This car is straight
from the show room floor! This is a rare car being that it is a GTA rather than
a GT. It came with the C6 Automatic, when most GT Fairlane’s came in manual.
Let me give you a little information about the car by decoding the VIN. This car has a paint code (6), which is light beige. This
car has the ORIGINAL FACTORY paint job. Never restored, never repainted. No
chips or cracks in the paint. Car was always stored indoors. Its date produced was November 30th 1967. So this
is a late year Fairlane bought right before the 1968 model was released. Its axel (D) is a 3.25 to 1 gear ratio locking axel. All
original. Engine is the (S) code 390 C.I.D. 4v V8 with original
factory 4 barrel carburetor. Engine was rebuilt at 60,000 miles and it is bone
stock. Original manifold and vintage chrome ford racing head covers. This
numbers matching car only has 83,000 ORIGINAL miles. Very loud and very fast! Body (63D) is a 500 GT 2-Door Hardtop GT. This car has ZERO
rust neither body rot nor surface rust. Started out a Nevada car and ended up
in Spokane, Washington. ZERO bondo and ZERO sheet metal replacement. Its “Trim” (8A) includes all ORIGINAL charcoal black
interior that has never been reupholstered, original factory vinyl. ORIGINAL
charcoal black vinyl top that has also never been replaced or repaired and
Original from the factory as well. No sun fading either. And original never
replaced Rosette trunk pattern. Its DSO or regional dealership is San Jose, California (72). Its transmission
is the C-6 automatic (U), which puts the “A” in the model GTA. Numbers matching
on the transmission too. This car as assembled in Kansas City, Missouri (K). This car may seem too good to be true, but it is not. This
car is the real deal. All original, never restored. This car is as if it was
driven off the show room floor in late 1967 and stuck in a garage since. BY THE
WAY did I mention that this is a factory AC car? It has the original working
air conditioning unit. Has a clock on the dash but that is all in there but
needs to be fixed as it does not work. Has original AM stereo in the car with
factory speakers. The pictures say a lot about the car. This car has no leaks
or cracks. Very straight body. I am sure you can find pencil point nicks in the
paint if you look really hard here and there but this is a 46 year old car. Original
rims as well. Also very unique hood turn signal indicators. This car has so
much to tell and I could go on and on. Being a Ford man, having the Fairlane, a
1970 Torino GT, a 1968 Cougar, a 1967 Ford Mustang and others, I know my Ford’s
and this is a great car. This car is priced from $27,000 to $32,000 in excellent
condition. This car is all original. Never restored, and is probably at the
upper range of the price range. And to be honest NADA and Hagerty really don’t
add up the whole package like original paint and AC etc. I am asking $30,000
OBO and willing to entertain ALL offers. I don’t really need the money and will
take the time to sell this car to the right owner. This is “turnkey” car and
needs nothing done to it. My number is 1-208-819-6803. Please feel free to call
or text me at any time. I will hear all offers but I am not really interested
in trades. I am located in Hayden, Idaho which is about 40 miles from Spokane
Washington, and I can set up an appointment to see the car in person. For out
of state buyers I will ship but at the buyers expense. Willing to do anything
to make owning this car an easy possibility. Thanks for your time, Tanner Cox. On Oct-05-13 at 00:02:41 PDT, seller added the following information: Note: does have a two inch crack on the dash. Not pictured. On Oct-06-13 at 14:11:40 PDT, seller added the following information: note: vehicle also has factory front disc breaks with drums on rear. note: vehicles drivers seat has a small 1 1/2 inch section on upper drivers seat that has come unstitched. Pictured. On Oct-07-13 at 18:06:23 PDT, seller added the following information: If anyone would like a video of the car running or some more pictures just give me a call or text with you email or message me on ebay. Thanks 208-819-6803 Willing to sell internationally. Message offers I am willing to hear all offers. I have the right to end auction early if car sells. Also selling car locally via craigslist. |

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Ford 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.
Junkyard Gem: 1971 Mercury Comet 2-Door Sedan
Sat, Sep 10 2022When Ford introduced the original Maverick for the 1970 model year, Dearborn tradition required that a Mercury-badged version be created. That car ended up being the Comet, built from the 1971 through 1977 model years. Here's one of those first-year Comets in rough but recognizable condition, found in a Denver self-service yard not long ago. The Comet name had spent the 1960s affixed to the flanks of Mercurized Ford Falcons (1960-1965) and Fairlanes (1966-1969). Since the Maverick was the successor of the Falcon — sales of which went into an irrecoverable downward spiral once its sportier Mustang first cousin hit the streets — it made sense to move the Comet name over to the Mercury version. Nearly every American Mercury model ever sold was a U.S.-market Ford model with a different name and some gingerbread slapped on. Notable exceptions to this tradition include the 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar (mechanically based on the Contour but with a unique body) and the 1991-1994 Mercury Capri (an Australian-built mashup of Mazda components borrowed from the Ford Laser). The Comet was by far the cheapest Mercury model available in 1971, though it was considered more prestigious than its Maverick counterpart. The price tag on the '71 Comet two-door sedan started at $2,217 (about $16,505 in 2022 dollars), while the '71 Maverick two-door sedan cost $2,175 ($16,193 today). Meanwhile, AMC would sell you a new Hornet two-door sedan for one dollar less than a Maverick, Chevrolet had the Nova coupe for a dollar more than the Maverick, and Plymouth offered the Valiant Duster for $2,313 ($17,220 now). Toyota had a Maverick competitor as well that year, with the Corona at $2,150 for the sedan and $2,310 for the coupe. Having driven every one of the aforementioned models, I'd take the Duster if I went back in time and had to choose one (as a 1969 Corona owner, I'm not a fan of the 1971 facelift, though the Corona's build quality beats the Duster's). The build sticker on this car tells us that it was built at the Kansas City Assembly Plant (where Transits and F-150s are made today) and sold through the Los Angeles district sales office (there was a DSO in Denver, so it's a near-certainty that this car didn't start out in Colorado). The paint started out as Bright Blue Metallic (it's neither bright nor metallic 51 years down the road) and the interior was done up in Medium Blue Cloth & Vinyl.
Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally lands on Google board
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally often referred to the Blue Oval as a technology company when he led the automaker. Now he'll be offering guidance to a different kind of technology firm: Google.
Mulally was appointed to Google's board of directors July 9, and late Tuesday, it was announced that he will serve on the company's audit committee. The veteran executive led Ford from September 2006 until he retired in June, succeeded by Mark Fields.
While Mulally will act as a board member - rather than in a managerial role - his presence adds credibility to Google's recently announced plans to produce an autonomous car. The ambitious program calls for 100 prototypes to begin testing later this summer. Production of the car is rumored to be in collaboration with a Detroit area performance company, Roush.
