Ford Fairlane 500 1964 Rust Free California Time Capsule (original V8) 65 66 on 2040-cars
Vacaville, California, United States
A close friend asked me to buy this Fairlane from a family at his Church who had recently fallen on hard times and could no longer afford the high cost of storage fees. At first, I was reluctant - but soon discovered that this was a very special special and very clean V-8 Fairlane. After a nice bath, and all new fluids - the rebuilt 260 V-8 fired up and ran excellent.
Since my friend also owns a local body shop - he fixed a minor dent that was in the driver's fender - and almost perfectly matched the paint color. This little car would be perfect for a small family - or for someone just wanting to cruise in a cool nostalgic ride with dependability and simplicity at over 20 miles per gallon with power brakes and power steering. This car drives excellent and has the same small V-8 which first available in the 64 1/2 mustangs (the 260) with the simple 2 speed automatic transmission. All the sheet metal is perfect, the trunk and under-floors are awesome, and there are no flaws in the glass. Just a dented piece of chrome for the driver's fender (which is now setting in the back seat). A true California Time Capsule, this car is rust free. I would keep this car (but already have a matching Galaxie with 427 side oiler), so I would recommend the buyer install a driver's door arm rest, and eventually have the upholstery repaired on both seats. That's it, this car is other-wise ready for cruise-night! I am happy to arrange transport at buyers expense - or can personally deliver up to 100 miles from Vacaville, Ca (95688). Please check my feedback and bid with confidence: I'm happy to answer any questions via email, text, or phone. Logan Rice Vacaville, Ca |

Mustang GT350 reveal coming Nov 17?
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Ford looks to have something really big planned for the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. The Blue Oval has released the first of five teaser videos on the brand's performance heritage, and aside from some great images of racers over the years, the video includes a series of teaser images, the last of which points to November 17, 2014.
That's the day before press days open in LA, and considering the propensity of global automakers to plan lavish debuts the night before a major international auto show, it's a virtual certainty that Ford will be showing off some sort of special vehicle.
That'd be news in and of itself, but based on the images shown in Ford's teaser video - which include an Alcantara steering wheel, a "Powered by Ford" valve cover, aluminum pedals, sticky tires, a big, round exhaust tip, a honeycomb grille and a serious set of wheels - it seems very likely that Ford will be showing something performance oriented.
Cheap gas has Ford investors nervous over 2015 F-150
Wed, Dec 17 2014Gasoline in the US continues its weeks-long descent with prices down about 13 cents a gallon over last week to $2.544, which is lower by around 69 cents/gallon from this time last year, according to the US Energy Information Administration. Many drivers are welcoming the lower bills at the gas station as a fantastic holiday gift, but Ford investors are somewhat spooked over the potential sales implications for the 2015 F-150. Market analyst Rod Lache of Deutsche Bank recently downgraded Ford's stock from a buy to hold, according to TheDetroitBureau.com, and his report to investors may have played a part in a drop in the company's share price. Lache praised the truck's powertrain and lightweight technology, but wrote, "We question whether consumers will pay the price for this content with $2-$3 gas," in his report, according to the website. Whether buyers actually turn away from the F-150 is mostly speculative at this point because it only recently began production. With around 700 pounds of weight loss thanks in parts to its new aluminum parts, the latest Ford pickup offers up to 26 miles per gallon on the highway, plus segment-best payload and towing ratings. Prices are up somewhat in part to pay for additional standard features, though. Still, any further dip in Ford's stock is bad news this year. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the company's shares are down about 7.5 percent this year. On December 15, the price fell to $14.28, the lowest since November 10. Related Video:
Ford recalls 2017 Lincoln Continental for headlight problem
Tue, Oct 11 2016Ford Motor Co. is already recalling the 2017 Lincoln Continental for a headlight problem, the automaker announced Tuesday. The HID headlights may have been assembled with LED lens that don't have the correct lens optics to meet federal visibility requirements for turn signals. Ford says it is unaware of any accidents related to the issue. The company will replace the headlamp assemblies, if needed. The safety compliance recall covers 1,876 Continentals built from June 14 to Sept. 23 at Ford's Flat Rock factory south of Detroit. Most of the cars are in the United States; 49 are in Canada, and one is in a federalized territory. Only about 300 cars are in consumers' hands, a spokesperson said. Customers can use a Lincoln service program where dealers will pick up their Continental, fix it for free, and return it, the spokesperson said. Lincoln has high hopes for the Continental. The flagship sedan uses one of Lincoln's most iconic names and features a luxurious interior, available 400-horsepower V6 engine, and safety features like adaptive cruise control and a 360-degree camera. Lincoln recently announced an elaborate marketing campaign shot by renown photographer Annie Leibovitz to generate interest in the Continental. In a separate recall, Ford also said Tuesday that 60 Edges from the 2015-16 model year are being recalled to update their antilock braking system module.
