1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria Sedan on 2040-cars
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
|
This is a 1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria Sedan with the 312 cubic inch thunderbird engine, Fordomatic transmission and finished in peacock blue and white, with matching blue and white interior. Mechanically this car is in good condition, it starts up well, runs well and doesn't smoke. The transmission shifts smoothly and doesn't clunk, all the gauges work as well as lights and turn signals. The windows roll up and down smoothly and all the door hardware works smooth (no sticking push buttons). The paint and chrome on the car is older, and it does have rust issues. There are bubbles around the wheel wells and on the bottom of some of the doors and the trunk floor would need to be replaced as well. There is a small bit of damage around the drivers side headlight as well where it looks like the car was backed into at low speed but its not noticeable right away.
The interior seats are good with no rips or tears, the headliner is in great shape as well. All the carpet is there and in good condition, no rips or snares. The door panels are a little worn but still in solid shape and there is no radio in the dash but the car does have one to fit in there along with the trim plate. Also included with the car is a new weather strip rope kit color matched to the car.
Overall this is a great little driver for someone who wants something they can cruise every so often. It's a classic 50's Ford with great design and still looks good. This car is by no means perfect and I am not advertising it is as such. It has it's issues and flaws but still has many many years left for someone to be able to enjoy it and get plenty of thumbs up from people as they go by.
Please don't hesitate to contact me for more pictures and information
Thanks

Ford invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.
Jay Leno sees how the other half lives with CHP cop cars new and old
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Comedian Jay Leno is changing gears from driving fast cars to checking out some of the police cruisers that regularly chase down and dish out punishment to those fast cars. In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we get the lowdown on the modifications made to the Ford Explorer for the Interceptor package (which looks pretty tough in its California Highway Patrol livery).
The new Ford is cool, but cooler still are the pack of classic CHP cars that Jay has along for the episode. A 1982 Mustang, 1966 Dodge Polara, 1970 Mercury Monterey and 2000 Crown Victoria are all in the shop. Better still, Jay lays out an argument for ones of the classic cruisers as the best cop car of all time. Get your guesses in now, and then scroll down to watch and learn.
Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Oprah 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.
