1957 Ford Fairlane 500 312 Interceptor V8 Matching Numbers 3 Speed W/ Overdrive on 2040-cars
Marshfield, Missouri, United States
|
Matching Numbers 1957 Ford Fairlane 500, 2 Door, 312 Interceptor V-8, 3-Speed On The Column With Factory Installed Overdrive, dual exhaust with stainless steel tips. This car was restored by the previous owner. Paint is beautiful with a few minor flaws (chip in the headlight cup due to the aluminum not adhering well). All chrome is in original condition, shines well but can see minor pitting upon detailed inspection. Interior is flawless tan colored full quill ostrich carried through to the trunk. The car is all original with the exception of the wheels, radiator, dash cluster, and there is a kenwood stereo hidden in the glove compartment (original radio in the dash). The odometer reads 570 miles on the rebuilt motor as the original dash cluster had to be replaced. Matching numbers throughout the car. A VIN search revealed the car was manufactured in Memphis, Tennessee and I am the 3rd owner. I love the car and turn every head when I drive it, but I have a business and a young family and just don't have the time to devote to showing and caring for the car. I have rarely driven it in the past 2 years which has led me to the decision to sell it. It is in beautiful shape but still has a few details that the new owner can enjoy restoring such as a dash knob needing replaced, locating and installing the air conditioning unit (the original was removed and not replaced at time of restoration), etc. I don't have experience with vehicle shipping but will do my part on this end once the buyer has made the arrangements. Thank you for your time.

Ford spotted testing new Focus RS at the Nurburgring
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford is expected to be launching a revised version of the Focus ST soon, but the latest snapshots from our spy photographers at the Nürburgring suggest that the Blue Oval is already working on an even more potent example: the new Focus RS.
Though the partially disguised test mule is wearing an ST badge (along with a Dewey sticker that makes us wonder what adventures Huey and Louie are up to and what manner of duck-tail rear spoiler they may be wearing), there are several tell-tale signs that something else is afoot here. There's a larger front air dam, bigger brake calipers, dual exhaust tips (instead of the central exhaust on the ST) and a reshaped wing protruding from the trailing edge of the roof.
That may all be well and fine, but what's under the hood? We don't know yet for sure, but word has it that Ford is preparing to port over the 2.3-liter turbo four offered in the new Mustang, where it packs 305 horsepower and almost as much torque - potentially retuned to produce even more for the top-of-the-line Focus, which could channel it all to the front wheels like the last model or pack an all-wheel drive system. The Global C platform on which the Focus is based does, after all, also underpin AWD models like the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC.
Justin Bell makes a horrible policeman
Mon, 11 Nov 2013If you're wondering what type of person makes a good police officer, it seems a racecar driver doesn't. Let us rephrase that: Justin Bell, a racecar driver and the host of Motor Trend's World's Fastest Car Show, recently got behind the wheel of a 5.0-liter Ford Mustang police car with Sergeant Daniel Shrubb, co-founder of DRAGG (Drag Racing Against Gangs and Graffiti), and proved that his high-performance-driving skillset is a bit too aggressive for police duty.
While it's easy to get carried away in a Mustang GT, a patrol car driver must maintain some sort of restraint while pursuing a criminal, so as not to come off as a reckless driver to the public. We'll admit, some pursuit techniques are counter-intuitive to performance driving (stay off the gas in a lane-change exercise?), but Bell's judicious use of the handbrake can't be normal procedure.

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest
Tue, 01 Apr 2014New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).
