There will be a lucky buyer out there today because I unfortunately have too many projects and sadly this hopped up little fairlane will have to go bye bye.  But somebody will be getting a great start to a super cool car!

Car has a pretty radical 390 in it.  We got the car the way you see it.  Very solid car compared to most of the fairlane projects you see out there.  Previous owner put a lot of money in this car.  Motor was supposedly rebuilt.  Definitely has a really hot cam in it and a $600 set of super comp ceramacoated big tube headers and a nice 650 holley double pumper.  TCI stall converter and built C6 with a posi 370 nine inch rearend.  Car sounds really healthy but the shifter is currently not installed in the car but does come with it.  We had a gas can under the hood rather than run the gas through the original gas tank just to start it when we bought it.  Sounds MEAN!!!! We have never actually driven the car. 


Car is really solid in the floor and torque box areas.  There is two spots on the rear frame on each side under the shackle that could easily be fixed.  Couple small spots in trunk at both sides above the frame in trunk pan area, flat metal area and an easy fix as well.  Car has solid rockers and solid fenders, trunk, and hood! The car will need a set of outer wheel houses and quarter skins because they cut out the wheel well to race the car for bigger tire clearance!

  • Factory Front Disc Brakes
  • factory 9 INCH POSI
  • Built 390 Big Block
  • super comp BIG TUBE HEADERS CERAMIC COATED
  • hood scoop
  • doors, hood, trunk lid, fenders are really nice and solid
  • All of the glass in the car is good!
  • Bucket seats

Car would make a really cool project for someone.  We are keeping the front and rear rims from the car so it will be supplied with the Keystone Mags with the drag slicks that was on the car in the 70's and 80's when it was raced.  The front rims will be rollers for transport purposes only

Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.

Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Sat, 17 Aug 2013

Oprah Winfrey loves giving away cars. Not only has she given Pontiac G6 sedans and Volkswagen Beetle retro-mobiles to everyone in the audience of her past show, but the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! she gave another car away to one lucky audience member, while yelling her now-famous line: "You get a car!"
Although the acting of Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel was obviously staged for this giveaway, the reaction from the woman in the audience was genuine shock as she found out that she had just won a new Ford Fusion Energi. Congrats!
Not to take away from what Oprah and Jimmy pulled off, but our cynical sides have to wonder if there isn't more than just a little coincidence that this giveaway took place on the same day that Ford announced a fuel economy reduction for the C-Max hybrid. You be the judge... Scroll down to watch the short clip from the episode.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012



Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
