RARE 289 SPECIAL ENGINE 3 SPEED ON THE COLUMN DUAL OUT SIDE MIRRORS AFTER MARKET RADIO HEATER NEW FLOW MASTER DUAL EXHAUST JACK AND SPARE FENDER SKIRTS AVAILABLE RUNS NICE JUST DID THE FUEL SYSTEM AND CHECKED OUT THE BRAKES. IT WILL DRIVE AWAY, BUT I WOULD HAVE SOME CONCERNS WITH THE OLD BIAS PLY TIRES, DATED IN THE 1968 ERA. THE ENGINE IS GREAT, VERY SMOOTH, NO SMOKE NO LEAKS, STARTS QUICKLY AFTER SITTING A DAY OR TWO. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THE 289 CAME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR FOR THIS MODEL, MUCH LIKE THE MUSTANG SAME VINTAGE. I ASSUME THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED "289 SPECIAL" MOST WERE 260 ENGINES. THE CLUTCH HAS SOME CHATTER, I'M HAVING IT CHECKED OUT FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. IT GOES THROUGH THE GEARS VERY WELL, AND IF YOU TAKE OFF EASY IT'S NO ISSUE. REAR END IS STOCK 300 RATIO FLOORS, MOUNTS, BRACES, TRUNK PAN ARE ROCK SOLID ORIGINAL. MILES ARE BELIEVED TO BE 35000 HARD DASH IS NICE, STEERING WHEEL IS GOOD, NORMAL FOR THE PAINT TO WEAR OFF UNLESS THE INTERIOR WAS BLACK, NO CRACKS ETC. ALL GLASS IS ORIGINAL, SIDE TRIM IS ALL GOOD, BUMPERS ARE PEELING, BUT NOT ROTTEN. THE FRONT SEAT WAS REDONE SOME TIME BACK IN THE PROPER MATERIAL, MUCH BRIGHTER THAN THE REAR SEAT. BUMPERS HAVE SURFACE RUST, BUT NOT ROTTEN. THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL, UT THE OLD GUY HAD ACCESS TO SOME RATTLE CANS, AND TRIED TO TOUCH UP SOME AREAS, I THINKI IT'S POSSIBLE TO WIPE OFF THE NEW, AND KEEP THE OLD UNDERNEATH. THE FAIRLANE NEEDS A RESTORATION, OR DRIVE IT AS IS WITH ALL THE PATINA IN PLACE. A SET OF WHEELS WITH THE OLD PAINT SEEMS TO BE THE CURRENT TREND. ALSO A THUNDER BOLT CLONE IS POSSIBLE. THAT SEEMS TO BE THE LATEST TREND!!!! IF YOU NEED HELP WITH TRANSPORT I MAY BE ABLE TO HELP, I MAKE REGULAR TRIPS SOUTH OF CINCINNATI OHIO THROUGHT WV,VA, KY, TN, NC, SC, GA, AND NORTHERN FL.

Honda giving away free Civics in Forza Horizon to celebrate launch
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Just a friendly reminder from Honda: The Honda Challenge Pack DLC is now available for Forza Horizon. To reward you for the trouble of pressing a few buttons on your Xbox controller, you'll get the 2013 Honda Civic Coupe, an HPD Rally Fit and a 1986 Honda Civic Si Coupe in your garage, and you'll get them free. The event of the new DLC has also kicked off a photo contest that will reward someone with an Xbox 360 console wrapped in a Honda Civic Si theme.
Otherwise, the word "Challenge" keeps coming up because of the chance to run an online race against IndyCar driver Scott Dixon. The track for that digital throwdown has already been decided by Xbox players who voted before January 8. Yet it's not too late to hop into the Honda section in Xbox Live and lay down a time fast enough for a shot at the title "The Driver That Shellacked Scott Dixon," and meeting the man in person.
Check out the press release from Honda below, and the sweetness that is the 1986 Civic Si in the gallery above.
USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery
Sun, 08 Jun 2014After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
2015 Ford Focus ST gets sleeker style, improved dynamics
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The Brits don't really have a major auto show these days. Not in a conventional sense, anyway, with stationary vehicles under floodlights in a closed exposition space. What they do have, you could argue, is much better: the Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the public can view the latest machinery not only under an open sky, but in motion as well, speeding up Lord March's front lawn. And this year, British automakers are rolling in with some very enticing new metal.
In the past few days alone we've confirmed the McLaren 650S GT3 and MSO, Jaguar F-Type Project 7, Range Rover Sport SVR and Ariel Ace will all be revealed for the first time at Goodwood this weekend. Ford isn't, strictly speaking, a British automaker, but for all its history in the UK, it might as well. So it's chosen Goodwood as the site to unveil its refreshed Focus ST.
The upgraded Blue Oval hot hatch still packs a 2.0-liter turbo four with 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque driving through a six-speed manual to the front wheels, so we're not expecting much change in measurable performance. But Ford has given the new Focus ST a new front suspension setup and a new electric power-assisted steering rack that combine to promise improved handling.
