Classic And Clean 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 - Low Miles! on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
|
Meet Gracie, my 1958 Ford Fairlane 500. Have to sell-moving to house with no garage or room to store. :( 4 door sedan - all original. Almost "Survivor" but had some body work done. Had the rust cut out, replaced with metal, and had the white repainted. Otherwise, she's all original! The 35,555 original miles on original 332 motor. I bought from the mechanic of the original owners who all lived in a small town in Nebraska. 3 speed automatic tranny. The seats have been completely covered in the original vinyl covers all these years until recently, so the fibers in the seat are vibrant and in perfect shape. I still have the form fitted vinyl seat covers but they aren't in the best shape. Glass has no cracks. Mirrors have darkened slightly around edges. Tires have a fair amount of tread. Rear tires are somewhat "dry."Heater works good. Has "air vents" and wing windows. All windows don't go down all the way. But function fine within a comfortable and useable range. Tube Radio is AM only. Headliner is in tact except for a small rip just above the rear seat on the pillar. The rest of the headliner is complete but at one point must have gotten wet because there's some water stains. Seatbelts are obviously not original. Carpet is in good shape in the rear and front passenger's side but faded. Under the driver's feet it's pretty torn up but covers well with floor mats. All electronics work. The temperature gauge is not functioning at the time. Motor is solid! As stated, these are original miles and appears to have been stored most of her years. There is a very minor oil leak, not significant. Exhaust is clear. I just had the brakes redone. Transmission does not slip. Paint is still glossy. The black shows the patina. Has a few nicks on the black, as it is original, but super shape overall considering the age. You can still see your reflection on the black. Exhaust system is good. Floor pans are solid. No obvious rust, but upon close observation you can find some surface rust in the hidden corners. Gracie turns heads and gathers crowds at car shows. Comes with small die-cast model of the '58 Fairlane, original Owners Manual, original floor mats (?) and memorabilia. Feel free to text with questions (402) 313-8325. This description is as transparent as can be. Thank you for shopping. |

Ford, Renault have surprises in store for Le Mans
Tue, Jun 9 2015All those prototype and GT racers won't be the only attraction catching our eye at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend. Two major automakers have also confirmed that they've got new metal to unveil. And while they're not saying exactly what they'll be, we've got some pretty good ideas. First up is Ford, which has announced a "major Ford Performance news announcement" on Friday. Chairman Bill Ford, CEO Mark Fields, and product development chief Raj Nair will be on hand for the announcement set to take place on Friday at 10:00 AM Eastern. The Blue Oval isn't saying just what it has in store, but the widespread speculation has been that it will present a racing version of the new Ford GT at Le Mans a good half century since the original GT40 raced there. Meanwhile, Renault has announced that it is marking the 60th anniversary of the Alpine marque at Le Mans this Saturday. The French automaker has been working on reviving the dormant marque, and looks poised to finally reveal its new sports car at its iconic home endurance race this weekend. Tipped to be called the Alpine AS1, the new sports car will bring the marque back out of retirement in a more real way than the ELMS-winning LMP2 prototype ever could. Expect it to be based on the mid-engined chassis underpinning the Renault RS 01 spec racer, but built for the road.

Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Hertz goes Dutch with Ford Focus ST-H
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Want to take a performance car for a ride? Hertz can make that happen. Spin by your local rental location (depending, of course, on availability) and you can take out a Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, even a Corvette as part of the Adrenaline Collection. Hertz's Dream Cars lineup even includes Porsches and AMGs. But the really interesting stuff is what you can't get anywhere else: cars built specifically for Hertz.
Back in 1966, Hertz had Ford cook up a special run of Mustang GT350H models in back with gold stripes. It became an icon in and of itself, and in 2008 Hertz had a new batch of Shelby GT-Hs made. Earlier this year, Hertz contracted Penske to deliver another fleet of specially-built Mustangs you can rent. But if your travel plans include a trip to the Netherlands, Hertz has a completely different type of specially-prepared Ford on offer for you.
Back in August, Ford delivered a couple of Focus STs made specifically for Hertz in Holland. Now it's expanded that fleet even further. The Ford Focus ST-H features the same 252-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo four (and everything else) as the standard Focus ST, but gets that signature black exterior with gold stripes and a black leather interior with Recaro buckets. So in case a trip to Amsterdam doesn't hold enough thrills, now you can throw a hot hatch into the mix as well. Scope out the press release (in Dutch - isn't that weird?) below.
