Hey guys and gals for sale is my 1963 Ford
Fairlane 500. This is my daily driver that I'm looking to sell. Side note this car is going to be in the new Tim Burton movie called "Big eyes" They offered me a small part of driving the car through an intersection in a scene in little Italy in San Francisco.
On to the good stuff:
Fresh paint from macco about 2 years old (They actually did a great job!). The previous owner had it painted with the original color. It has an ATK remanufactured 302 motor swap. The motor came from an early 70's truck and runs strong. It sounds like it has a mild cam but I'm not sure what the previous owner did to the motor. Just replaced the generator, battery, starter, and the electrical box that controls everything (sorry I forget what it's called) the motor is backed by a C4 trans which shifts quick and smooth. The tires are brand new and purchased from Americas tire company theres a full size spare with stock rim in the trunk. There is no rust on the car at all, it is super solid no rust bubbles anywhere. I've been driving her for over a year everyday and haven't had any issues. I'm not sure what rear is in it but it has no issues smoking the tires and will get up and chirp going into 2nd. The exhaust is cut off at the rear seats and has a awesome deep hotrod sound. You can cruise the car all day at 75mph at 2,600rpm. It comes with the original air condition floor unit. It works but does not blow cold due to the AC compressor unit being removed for the motor swap. It has front bucket seats, original radio, all the gauges work, and has great chrome on the bumpers. The heater works as long with the windshield wipers and everything else. There is an after market cd player with aux input. There are no leaks in any of the seals and haven't seen any drips where I park it.
There really isn't any bad stuff with this car, just stuff that could use a little TLC but the car does not "need" it, it's just more cosmetic stuff. The speedo is off by about 10 miles but just needs the correct tooth speedo gear to fix. The previous owner kept the original speedo gear and put it into the C4 which is the reason it's not correct. The interior needs some help, the carpet and back bench needs to be redone but the door panels and headliner are in great shape. There is a ding in the rear right passenger door. The trunk needs a new lock, but it still opens and closes. The top rear left side of the bumper dips down a little bit but there is no cracks or anything in the chrome. The front shocks squeak and may need to be replaced but she still rides great and the rear seems fine. So that's pretty much it, everything that is "not so good" isn't anything that effects the cars drivability itself and is mostly small stuff that would be expected with a 50 year old car. I have a clear California title with the original black plates. All the glass is in perfect shape and the windows all work perfectly. You won't be disappointed with this car. If you have any questions feel free shoot me a message.
Shipping responsibility will be on the buyer. I recommend using uShip for the best rates. Feel free to come take a test drive if you're local.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching
Fri, 26 Sep 2014This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
