Up for auction is a barn fresh 1966 Fairlane XL500 convertible (bucket seats with a console) with 35,000 original miles. Vehicle was sanded down, primed and then stored in 1976. It is a rare optioned XL500 convertible with a 6 cylinder engine. I've collected alot of fairlanes over the years and I don't believe I have ever seen one optioned like this. Ofcourse back then you could order one anyway you wanted. Vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, power steering, power convertible top, am radio, bucket seats, console, and deluxe wheel covers. The original color is code Z sauterne gold which appears to be more of a very lite metallic green with black interior. The vehicle does has surface rust coming through the primer but don't let that fool you this car is extremely solid throughout. The only rot on the car is a small area of the floor under the driver seat, the rest of the undercarriage, rockers, trunk pan, body mounts, doors, quarter panels in and out are in exceptional condition as the car has always been stored inside. Just before my father purchased it the previous owner just replaced the wheel cylinders, brakes, drums and gave it a tune up. It runs and drives extremely well. It doesn't smoke or leak any fluids and it shifts flawlessly. I 've used it around town and it drives great. All the lights, directionals, gauges and power top operate properly. The original body panels are rust free and extremely straight. The driver quarter has a slight dent. The original interior is in very good condition, the only tare is in one of the seams in the driver seat. The dash pad is cracked around the speaker. The top has tares and rips and needs to be replaced. This is a very nice Fairlane to restore or drive and fix it up as you go. This is a 100% original low mileage car that hasn't been altered and or molested. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Wayne at (973)332-1074.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.
