1956 Ford Fairlane

Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed

 


Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads.  It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything  Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles.  The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo.   The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch.  The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe.  Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator.  There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding.  Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should.  This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!

 

The body & paint are in very good condition!  The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago.  The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up.  There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE!  The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition.  The tires have about 300 miles on them.  

The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition.

The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.  

 

Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb.  The four speed works great.  

The engine runs very strong and fast.  No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator.

Steering is straight and solid.

The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back.

All fluids have been changed and are fresh.

 

 In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor?  Never!  Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask.

 

This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied.  The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time.  Serious bidders only!  I will require a non-refundable $5000 deposit within 72 hours of close of this add.  Remaining funds MUST be paid by cash or bank wire transfer.  I will however accept a cashiers check if I am with you at the bank when you receive it. The remaining funds will need to be paid in full within 7 days of close of auction.

 

Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer. I am not a dealer. Any taxes or registration fees are the responsibility of the buyer pursuant to their home state requirements.  I have a clear title in my name. The vehicle is for sale locally so I have the right to end this auction at any time.  If there is a qualifying bid then the ebay add will remain and the high bidder will own.

Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says

Fri, Jun 5 2015

The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
