1968 Ford Fairlane 500 Fastback No Reserve on 2040-cars

Year:1968 Mileage:100000
Location:

Cleveland, Ohio, United States

Cleveland, Ohio, United States

1968 red Ford Fairlane 500 Fastback.  It's a solid running project.  I was told the 302 V8 was rebuilt around 2008.  It fires right up with no issues.  Odometer has rolled over, but now reads around 1000.  I bought it in the fall to restore with my brother but don't have the time or the body work skills to finish it before he goes to college.  I haven't gotten into the car, but what I do know is that it needs some body work, a paint job, and tires.  The drums have been rebuilt but I think the lines need to be bled.  The interior is in great shape.  It has a new battery.  It was an AC car, but the AC was removed.  I have the Fairlane name plates in the trunk.  It's a cool, somewhat rare car and could be cruised this summer with a small amount of work.

I'm selling the car AS IS - there is no warranty.  It's got really good potential - it runs and practically drives, but it is a 46 year old project car.  It should be towed home.  I strongly recommend you come out and look at it before bidding.  $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit within 48 hours of the auction ending, and the rest by cash at delivery.  No haggling the price upon pick up.  I have a clear Ohio title.  Please feel free to ask for more pictures if you're interested in bidding and I'll be happy to send you a photo of anything you'd like to see.

The big dune jump and the damage done

Mon, 20 May 2013

The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.

Ford Edge Concept previews new look, can park itself remotely

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

It turns out the image we saw back in February did, in fact, reveal the next-generation Ford Edge - at least in concept form. We still have to wait to see what the design will look like in production guise, but until then, Ford is giving us a good idea thanks to the Edge Concept being introduced at the LA Auto Show.
The new styling is an evolution of the current crossover's face with narrow headlights and a prominently slatted grille, while the rest of the design adds a more dynamic appearance with interesting body creases and horizontal taillights. We haven't gotten a look inside the Edge Concept just yet, but Ford is promising a suite of advanced driver-assist technologies including a new self-park system that allows activation from inside or outside the vehicle along with obstacle avoidance and an adaptive electric power steering system.
Ford will continue to offer an EcoBoost engine option in the upcoming Edge, and it will get active grille shutters to help maximize fuel efficiency. No word yet on when we'll be seeing the next-gen Edge in production form, but as we reported recently, it will become a global model in markets including Europe, China and South America. Ford's press release is posted below, but we'll have more information and images up later today.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.
