1963 Ford Fairlane for sale. This car is in awesome condition. I purchased it a year ago from an older guy who took very good care of this car. I'll do my best to describe it.
Paint is in great condition. Painted a year ago and it shines nicely. The car was never taken back to be properly buffed. When it gets buffed, it is going to shine like glass. The gold paint has some metal flake in it. It looks really nice. The chrome is in really good shape. It does have some very, very light pitting that can easily be cleaned off. All the moldings and emblems are in good shape. Bumpers are in good shape. All doors open and shut perfectly and are aligned very well. Radio and Antenna work(AM only). All lights, wipers, and heat work. It has the original V8 - 260 Short Block engine. Engine was refreshed two years ago. 3 speed transmission. It has dual exhaust (Flow Masters). Sounds very aggressive for a small engine. I purchased an extra grille and light bezels that I will include with the car. Interior dome light works but the plastic dome is cracked. $15 on Ebay. Headliner and seats are in mint condition. Dash is mint, no cracks. Rear deck is mint. Door panels are mint. All windows are manual and work perfectly. Engine compartment is really nice. Car has no visible rust other than the light, and I mean very light surface rust and pitting on the chrome. Car has (I believe) 14" wheels and whitewall tires. It also has fender skirts.
I love this car but I cant really keep it. I have an 83 Cutlass and I am about to purchase a 63 Impala. Don't have the space. Cutlass is completely custom so this one must go. Car is in great shape for a 50 year old car! If it does not sell, I will place a set of 20" rims on it and drop a 302 High Output engine in it. Then i will play with it for a while.
Don't let this piece of American history pass you by!

Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang debuts at Lagun Seca
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Saleen used the occasion of the race-fueled Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca to announce its new Heritage Collection Lineup. The event was punctuated with the debut of the collection's first member, the 2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang.
Follmer's name will likely sound familiar to fans of American racing in the 1960s and '70s. The driver competed in Formula One with the Shadow team in 1973, ran the Indianapolis 500, was the Can-Am champion in 1972 and drove stock cars in NASCAR's Winston Cup as well. The multi-disciplined driver is now one of three -the other two being Mark Donohue and Swede Savage - with the honor of upcoming, limited edition Saleen-tuned vehicles..
