1956 Ford Fairlane on 2040-cars
Gordonville, Texas, United States
Well I know you have heard this story before. A project that had a good start never got finished. Im listing this for my dad. Its a good start to a cool cruiser. Its a 1956 Fairlane sedan. As you can see the original motor and transmission are gone. The 312 had been replaced and the motor was locked up it had a three speed but all that has been gone for a while. He had the car painted Black Cherry and the guy did a pretty good job. Body is straight and I think one piece of chrome is bent where a tree branch had hit the fender. There isnt any rust I can find that isnt surface rust and thats underneath. The interior is original and needs redoing but its very usable. The car has skirts which is always a bonus. It has four brand new 215/75/15 tires and has been in storage since the moment it was painted probably two or more years ago. The tires werent on ground as it has been on jack stands. Throw on a cool set of spinner hubcaps and you are good to go. All the chrome seems to be here and the other Thunderbird emblem not seen is in a bag with door hardware. It has original spare tire and jack along with trunk mat.
There is a motor its a 1992 351W out of a Ford truck It was a good running motor when purchased. Its been on a motor stand for two years. Its set up for injection but he had purchased an intake, carb and air cleaner set up from a guy on here that is still in box. You could still use brackets and rest of motor just need to pick your transmission and mount it up. It will need a distributor for using a carb. I have pictures of floor pans if interested but there is no rot as far as I could see. This car has a clean texas title. |

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now
Sat, Jan 17 2015The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.
