This Auction is for One Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible and one Ford Fairlane 500 4door, to be sold as a PAIR.
~The 4door has a 312 v8 4 barrel motor. It is rusty, but complete except for the 9" rear-end. This was a one owner car and was purchased to use as a parts car to complete the convertible. This car ran when it was parked over 25 years ago, but have not tried to start it since. This car also features power steering.
~The convertible was a three speed with manual steering and manual transmission. This convertible is on a x-frame/convertible frame. The car has had a lot of sheet metal repair done.(look at the pictures of the rear fender and floor pans. In my opinion, it is not the best sheet metal repair I have seen, but definitely not the worst. Someone also cut holes in the motor mount. This car includes a large lot of trim, windshield trim and all of the convertible top pieces (one of the top pieces is bent, but can be fixed) This car is missing the rear seat, it did not have one when I got the car. I just bolted on the front end pieces to hold them in place for picture.
I have worked on a lot of 57 and 58 fords over the last three decades, I never had a chance to get to this one and would like to see it go to someone who will appreciate it and hopefully finish it. Please call me with any questions. Dan (208) 550-4363

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.
Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years
Wed, 01 May 2013While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
