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.

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford Fusion and Toyota Highlander named Best Hybrids for Families; Funky Prius motorhome

Fri, Mar 13 2015

Tesla Model S customers in China will receive a "Universal Mobile Charger" with their vehicle. The charger will allow drivers to charge their Tesla anywhere, without having to search out a Supercharger when out in the wild. It allows Model S drivers a bit more freedom and helps alleviate worries about traveling too far from home. It could also help sway potential customers who suffer from range anxiety. The charger will be free to new and existing customers when it becomes available this summer. Read more at Car News China. US News & World Reports' list of Best Cars for Families includes two hybrids. The 2015 Ford Fusion Hybrid was chosen as the Best Hybrid Car for Families, while the 2015 Toyota Highlander Hybrid was picked as the Best Hybrid SUV for Families. The Fusion hybrid was chosen for its roomy, comfortable cabin, as well as the MyKey system's features for new drivers. The Highlander Hybrid offers eight seats - good for carpooling - as well as good mileage and a quality infotainment system. Read more at US News & World Reports or at Hybrid Cars. Audi plans to give its electric vehicles looks that differentiate them from the rest of the lineup. "In early 2018, we will launch a battery-powered sports activity vehicle in the large premium segment with a range of more than 500 kilometers," says Audi's head of development, Ulrich Hackenberg. "It will have a new, very attractive design, which we are developing especially for the E-Tron range and for battery-electric vehicles." According to analysts, part of the reason the Toyota Prius was so successful was because it was easy to distinguish from other Toyota models with conventional powertrains. Read more at Automotive News Europe. An Australian man turned his Toyota Prius into a miniature motorhome. James Lawler used mostly scraps to build the tiny house – complete with tin roof, chimney, and stained glass window – for just $150 Australian. It took him about a week to finish. Lawler made use of his creation at the Meredith Music Festival so he didn't have to sleep in a tent. He was, however, fined by police for driving the makeshift motorhome.

Ford moving medium-duty F-Series production from Mexico to Ohio

Thu, 27 Feb 2014


A few more Ford trucks will be built in the US in the near future with news that production of the F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks will move from Mexico to Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, OH. Ford hasn't confirmed a precise timeline for the move, but The Detroit News claims the Blue Oval will make the shift later this year or in early 2015.
As Ford spokesperson Mike Levine reminded us, back in 2011, Ford announced in an investor release that it would shift production "after the [Ohio] plant stops current production of the Ford E-Series vans." According to that release, the Ohio factory will also receive $128 million in upgrades to build the new trucks, plus the F53 motorhome chassis and F59 commercial chassis.
