1964 Ford Fairlane 500 4 Door Nice Condition 260 Cu In Engine on 2040-cars
Bellingham, Washington, United States
Thanks for looking at my auction up for bid tonight is a car I am selling for a friend...1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sedan. Presently I am using the car for a daily driver and it runs great. This car has had an excellent start to restoration. The following is a list of items that have already been completed... Engine and transmission rebuilt New seats and dash done New exhaust system (dual exhaust) New voltage regulator New Battery New fuel pump - mechanical New fuel sending unit (although not entirely happy with how it sends the signal to the gas gauge on the dash The car had been painted but it is my daily driver and needs a good cleaning/polishing New plugs, wires, coil and distributor New master cylinder and brakes done all the way around (including wheel cylinders) Rebuilt carb Just replaced the brushes in the generator
I know I have spent way too much money as I have spent more than $3500 on the seats and dash alone. Now is the time for someone to carry on and finish the restoration. Unfortunately I am running out of money and don't want to see this wasted. The upholstery guy scratched the car on both sides (see pics) and then went out of business. Till it was used for a daily driver it was stored in a warehouse for more than 15 years. The body is pretty straight there is a dent in the back bumper and trim piece but as well there is a small dent in the front grill (see pics) Things I know for sure that I would do is replace the tires and the shocks and leaf springs...they had been replaced before but they are noisy right now and the leaf springs look like they have flattened out. I HAVE THE CLEAR TITLE SIGNED AND READY TO BE TRANSFERED TO THE NEXT OWNER I love driving this car...the heat works great the heater ducts have just been worked on to work better on Monday! The fan is in great condition. There is no rust through........there are a few spots of minor rust starting to bubble but not very big in size. It has a 260 cu inch engine that purrs like a kitten. Pump the gas once and turn key and starts perfectly. I noticed too that the pics do not show a air cleaner but I have a air cleaner that is now on the car (after market)
This car gets noticed every where I drive it.

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

Ford profiles surprisingly affluent Focus ST buyers
Fri, 08 Nov 2013It comes as no surprise when Ford says that 32-percent of Focus ST buyers are under 35, but we weren't expecting this: the average annual salary of Focus ST buyers is $127,000. Twenty-two percent of non-ST Focus buyers are under 35, while their average annual salary is $67,000.
We like the Focus ST because it has 252 horsepower, is genuinely fun to drive and offers great value for performance-minded car enthusiasts; facts that are not lost on customers, it seems. Ford says that the Focus ST has the highest percentage of conquest sales for a non-hybrid model it sells, and that the top-four trade-ins are from Honda, Chevrolet, Mazda and Toyota. Demand for the hot Focus is strongest in Los Angeles, Detroit, Houston and Orlando.
"[The Focus ST is] having this kind of halo effect for other vehicles we'd hoped for when we invested in the ST brand," says John Felice, vice president of US marketing, sales and service, because it's helping to boost sales of other Ford vehicles.
