1957 Ford Fairlane 500 312 Interceptor V8 Matching Numbers 3 Speed W/ Overdrive on 2040-cars
Marshfield, Missouri, United States
Matching Numbers 1957 Ford Fairlane 500, 2 Door, 312 Interceptor V-8, 3-Speed On The Column With Factory Installed Overdrive, dual exhaust with stainless steel tips. This car was restored by the previous owner. Paint is beautiful with a few minor flaws (chip in the headlight cup due to the aluminum not adhering well). All chrome is in original condition, shines well but can see minor pitting upon detailed inspection. Interior is flawless tan colored full quill ostrich carried through to the trunk. The car is all original with the exception of the wheels, radiator, dash cluster, and there is a kenwood stereo hidden in the glove compartment (original radio in the dash). The odometer reads 570 miles on the rebuilt motor as the original dash cluster had to be replaced. Matching numbers throughout the car. A VIN search revealed the car was manufactured in Memphis, Tennessee and I am the 3rd owner. I love the car and turn every head when I drive it, but I have a business and a young family and just don't have the time to devote to showing and caring for the car. I have rarely driven it in the past 2 years which has led me to the decision to sell it. It is in beautiful shape but still has a few details that the new owner can enjoy restoring such as a dash knob needing replaced, locating and installing the air conditioning unit (the original was removed and not replaced at time of restoration), etc. I don't have experience with vehicle shipping but will do my part on this end once the buyer has made the arrangements. Thank you for your time.

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.
1969 Ford Talladega GPT Special is a SEMA showstopper
Thu, 07 Nov 2013Rad Rides by Troy has unleashed upon the SEMA crowds this custom 1969 Ford Torino Talladega GT Special, and it's a beauty. The car calls to mind the classic Holman Moody stock cars that circled NASCAR tracks in the late 1960's, driven by the likes of Mario Andretti, Dan Gurney and David Pearson, who won the Grand National title in both 1968 and '69 in a Ford Torino.
Even though it has plenty of stock-car influence, there's nothing retro about the car's design or powertrain, other than the fact that the engine is based on a Ford Boss 429 block. Fuel injection, aftermarket aluminum heads and a high-tech custom computer system combine to send 750 reliable ponies to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Brakes measure 14-inches all around, with six-piston Wilwood calipers up front and four-piston units out back.
There's custom bodywork abound, painted in a two-tone Tennessee Whiskey Gold and Daytona Sand finish. Check out all the amazing details in the image gallery below, and scroll down to read all about it in designer Troy Trepanier's own words.
