1960 Ford Fairlane 500. Complete professional restoration from top to bottom. Not many, if any have been restored to this degree. This is a multi show winning vehicle and has had numerous concourse show invitations. This Ford Fairlane 500 was originally from a dry southern mid west area. It has been completely stripped to a bare body shell and soda blasted prior to refinishing. It has been refinished in the original color of 'Adriatic Green', with a contrasting white top. The paint quality is flawless and this is a laser straight body. All the stainless body trim is either n.o.s or has been professionally polished. Most ornamentation is n.o.s and reproduction. Chrome plating is all show chrome. Front bumper however is original.

Vehicle is equipped with the original 223 Mileage Maker 6 cylinder engine. All internal and external parts have been replaced, rebuilt or are new. No details were overlooked for longevity and reliability. Engine starts instantly and is incredibly smooth. It is also equipped with power brakes and a 3 speed manual transmission with overdrive delivering an amazing 25+ highway fuel mileage. Car has been carefully driven aprox. 1800 wonderful miles since recent restoration.

Most suspension parts have been replaced. New exhaust system with a n.o.s muffler. All underside components have been refinished. New brakes, brake hardware, hoses, lines, shocks, wheel bearings, wheel cylinders, etc. etc. Tires are a radial type that have been custom made through Diamond Back Classic tires.

Interior fabrics and vinyl are n.o.s. including the headliner. Door panels are original. Door seals, window seals/felts, trunk and windshield seals are new including all rubber underhood and trunk items. All convenience options are in perfect working order including the speedometer, clock, heater, and radio all of which have been restored as well.

There has been a tremendous amount of attention and time given to this restoration regarding quality, fit, finish, detail and longevity. Nothing overlooked including the correct placement of the factory chalk marks and instruction decals. This is truly a show vehicle and I am confident you will not be dissapointed. I am responsible for restoring this car back to it's former glory, and proud to offer this iconic 1960 Ford Fairlane 500 for sale. International bidders welcome.

Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...
