For sale- a true part of American car building at it's best. The 1959 Fairlane is in very good condition. It's not driven every day, but certainly could be. I purchased it about 6 years ago. It came from South Dakota, where for part of it's recent life was displayed on the showroom floor of a local Ford dealer. I believe it was sometime during that time of it's life that the exterior and interior were restored and the undercarriage was coated.
It runs great, transmission shifts smoothly, the tires, battery and fuel pump are new. Also included with the purchase of this beauty is a Durafin Car Cover (interior use) and about $400 worth of parts I purchased for a project I never started to rebuild the motor. Something it really doesn't need, but I thought I would have the time to do it.
Although the odometer reads 19,387, I think you can add 100,000 to that.Since the car is in such good shape, I don't think it turned more than once, but that is speculation on my part.
There is a small crack in the passenger side vent window, and a small hole in the right exhaust manifold. A replacement manifold is included.
Since I owned this car, its always been garaged and never driven in the rain or snow.
Buyer is responsible for pickup and transportation.
A $500 (PayPal) non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of auction close.
Full payment within 7 days or at pick up. Personal check once cleared, cash or bank transfer.
This car is being sold locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
Good Luck!

NHTSA investigating Ford Fiesta for faulty door latches
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary investigation on the 2011-2013 Ford Fiesta because the regulator has received 61 complaints from drivers, including one claim of an injury, about the doors on the subcompacts failing to latch and sometimes even flying open while driving. NHTSA has estimated that the problem could affect as many as 205,000 vehicles.
NHTSA is still gathering further data about the problem, but looking at the complaints so far, both front and rear doors appear to be potentially involved with the alleged failures. Among the reports, there are 12 claiming that the door opened while driving. Several also indicate the "Door Ajar" warning illuminating during this problem. The one purported injury happened when someone attempted to shut the door, and it bounced back.
Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog via email, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the report from NHTSA.
Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Oprah Winfrey loves giving away cars. Not only has she given Pontiac G6 sedans and Volkswagen Beetle retro-mobiles to everyone in the audience of her past show, but the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! she gave another car away to one lucky audience member, while yelling her now-famous line: "You get a car!"
Although the acting of Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel was obviously staged for this giveaway, the reaction from the woman in the audience was genuine shock as she found out that she had just won a new Ford Fusion Energi. Congrats!
Not to take away from what Oprah and Jimmy pulled off, but our cynical sides have to wonder if there isn't more than just a little coincidence that this giveaway took place on the same day that Ford announced a fuel economy reduction for the C-Max hybrid. You be the judge... Scroll down to watch the short clip from the episode.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
