This auction is for a 1965 Ford Fairlane 500, and she runs. This is the story behind this car: I purchased this from a man who bought it NEW in 1965 for his Mother. He states, “She drove it nowhere for 20 years, and then gave it back to me.” This gentleman is a “pick-up truck” kind of guy, so this sat in his barn for the most part. He says he drove it rarely, just to make sure it started, and he kept it up. He has an emotional attachment to it, as his mother is now gone. The miles on this car, 19,370.8 are the only miles on it. Everything is original. The glass is original without a crack or a chip. The jack and crow bar in the trunk are original and the “how-to” diagram is still pasted to the inside of the trunk. Even the cigarette lighter is accounted for. Original keys and owner’s manual also included. The frame is straight as an arrow. The hood opens, stays open and shuts perfectly. The trunk opens, stays open, and shuts perfectly. Each door shuts and opens perfectly. You can really tell how little actual wear there is on the frame when you open and shut the doors. All the lights work, signals and brakes. You tap a button on the floorboard to switch to bright lights. Speedometer and gas gauge work. I purchased this car almost a year ago, with ideas of grandeur of fixing it up for fun. I find though that I’m more of a “mini-van” kind of woman. I’ve done a couple of things. Oil change, air and oil filter, spark plugs and spark plug wires, and I’ve had the original carburetor refurbished by a man in NJ (He’s actually on eBay!) I find this isn’t exactly my thing, and more important details in my life that require my attention (such as four kids, two jobs, etc.) supersede the restoring of this vehicle. And I just can’t let it sit in my back yard, covered with a tarp anymore. I’ve registered it for four years, paid extra for the ‘collector’s’ plate, and it’s insured…but to what end? This is not going to happen for me in my life right now. This baby still needs some TLC. She needs new tires for sure. The upholstery needs to be replaced. The seals around the windows need to be replaced. New seat belts need to be installed as there are only two lap seat belts in the front seat, none in the back. I’m pretty sure those aren’t to code. She needs painted. I’m not sure if the AM radio works. Do they still broadcast in AM? I can barely hear it, so I think it’s the speakers. Here’s what I know is a flaw: 1. The horn doesn’t work. 2. There is a small dent under the front driver’s side panel. Not visible from the front. I took a detailed photo of it. 3. The “R” in the front where is says “FORD” is missing. The engine is small, it’s a 200 in-line six. It does not have power anything. No power steering. No power windows. Drum brakes, not powered. No A/C. ‘Three on the Tree’ manual shifting. Did I mention, she’s a runner? Once yellow with a tan interior, now she’s more of an Ivory color. I have been on eBay for 15 years now and have impeccable feedback (this is my third job really). As you can see, I deal mostly in ladies lingerie and household collectables. I have never sold a car on eBay. Come to think about it, I’ve never sold a car. I have someone who is willing to assist me in questions you may have about this car, that I can’t answer. So feel free to ask, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. The title is clear, and I have it. |

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.
Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro
Wed, Dec 3 2014Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
Here are 12 electric pickups in the works
Wed, Oct 21 2020With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and “shatterproof” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique “frunkgate” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.
