This is a very cool little Ford 67 Fairlane 500
Sedan. It has been in our family for 21 years. We purchased the car in 1993 out
of an estate sale near Dodge City, KS where it had been parked in a garage for
12 years. Yes, it can snow in Kansas too.
The car has only seen the late spring, summer, and
early fall sun since we have owned it and always garaged or stored inside. I put her up on
jack stands 15 years ago thinking my son would want her at some point. Well,
there I go thinking again... Last year it was moved to a new location and was garaged. I changed the oil and with some minor brake bleeding and
fresh fuel it fired right up and drove around the block.
To date since last summer the gas tank has been flushed. New Master
Brake Cylinder and new Rear Wheel Cylinders and New Battery have been installed.
New in the box front wheel cylinders, new in the box distributer cap go with the car. All OEM type parts.
The car has had one repaint about 20 years ago, now
some rust is showing in the left rear quarter in front of the tire, and the right
front behind the tire. The driver’s side floors seem pretty solid. The
passenger side front floor is rusted out at the firewall, but from there back is
pretty solid. Absolutely
nothing serious. The shock towers, trunk drop offs,
trunk pan, rocker panels, frame rails, rear quarter wheel lips , and all other
vital areas seem very solid and intact. The paint is dead, faded with chips, peeling, and old faded finish. Panels have some nicks, dings, scrapes, and dents.
The windshield has a clip, rest of the glass is
good. The interior is excellent and complete. The dealer installed seat covers have been removed from the front, and the still remain on rear seat. AM Radio works. Extra rims and tires are in the Trunk.
The car shifts great and the engine runs very well.
Clean Title.
Kindly do not bid unless you intend to complete your obligation as this is a binding contract as intended by eBay. Immediate non-refundable $500.00
deposit due via Paypal at end of auction (burned with a no show last fall, cost
me money, storage, and time). Balance due in cash when car is picked up. Car
is located in zip code 61523, about 15 miles north of Peoria, IL.
Good luck Bidding and Thank you for looking!

Ford Explorer, Expedition next to go aluminum?
Sun, 13 Apr 2014Ford made some serious waves when it unveiled the latest F-150. Instead of making its bodywork out of steel, like just about every other truck on the market, Ford went with aluminum. And you can bet the F-150 won't be the last Ford model to go with the lightweight alloy construction, either.
Our compatriots at Edmunds report that Dearborn is considering replacing two of its most popular SUVs with aluminum versions. One candidate is the Expedition, which would make sense considering that the current model (like the two preceding generations and the fullsize Bronco before it) is based on the F-150's underpinnings. Another is the Explorer, which was traditionally based on the Ranger pickup but went with a car-like unibody chassis in its current iteration. If the Explorer does go the way of aluminum, don't expect it to be a part of its very next update, which is likely due too soon for such major changes.
It would stand to reason that, if the Expedition were to go aluminum, so would the next-generation Lincoln Navigator. Ditto the MKT together with the Explorer. But those aren't likely to be the only models in contention for aluminum construction. Like any other automaker, Ford is under pressure to steadily reduce its carbon emissions and improve its fuel economy figures, prompting it to look at a whole range of measures - including more efficient engines, lower rolling-resistance tires, active aerodynamics and lightweight construction. Expect aluminum to play a big part in that equation moving forward.
Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA
Tue, 29 Oct 2013With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.
Ford announces first non-pursuit-rated police car ever
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Ford announced its first non-pursuit-rated Police Interceptor ever, based on the Taurus, which employs the smaller 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine in place of similar pursuit-rated Police Interceptors powered by naturally aspirated 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter V6s and the top-spec 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. Officially called the Special Service Police sedan, the car was commissioned at the request of law-enforcement agencies that desire a more fuel-efficient vehicle for detectives, administrators and campus police, who don't necessarily need pursuit-rated vehicles.
The 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine produces 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, but more importantly, it allows the SSP sedan to achieve somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 miles per gallon city and 32 mpg highway, which are the civilian 2.0-liter Taurus' official EPA ratings. Ford estimates that the SSP sedan will get 20 mpg city, 30 mpg highway and 23 mpg combined, with the help of Active Grille Shutters that open to allow more cooling air through to the radiator, or close to optimize aerodynamics and fuel economy. Those numbers compare favorably to the discontinued Crown Victoria-based Interceptor's 14 mpg city and 21 mpg highway and the newer Taurus-based cars equipped with V6s, the most fuel efficient of which gets 18 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.
If it was driven 90,000 miles over the course of three years, a 2.0-liter SSP sedan would save law enforcement agencies $5,042.92 versus the Crown Vic, Ford estimates. The EPA is expected to post official fuel-economy numbers for the SSP sedan in December. Until then, read the press release below for more information.
