1958 Fard Fairlane 500 Sunliner Convertible
We purchased this car 10 years ago and my husband was working on it every spare moment. We have decided to sell the car because my husband was injured last year and just can't get to it anymore with the daily pain he suffers. So let him tell you all that he has done and what will need to finish it.
The engine is a 390 long block that I paid $2700 for. I had the company install the original 1958  352 intake manifold and baldy chrome valve covers. It was started and broke in correctly about 2 months ago. The transmission is a completely rebuilt C6 and the drive shaft is brand new from front to back that we just paid $250 to the local drive line building shop here in Grants Pass Oregon. The new or rebuilt parts on the car include, all glass, convertible top, padded dash with all the stainless trim and the trunk original style checkered floor mat all the top parts including the pump motor, hoses and cylinders are brand new. It has a working original up and down top button, all new upholstery, 4 whitewall tires, 4 core radiator,  rebuilt original radio, heater core, every part and piece of the entire brake system, rebuilt power steering system, every part of the suspension including ball joints, bushings, tie rods, bell crank and all rubber parts throughout the entire car, chrome power brake unit, emergency brake cable, all new brake lines, speedometer cable, battery cables, rechromed front bumper, rechromed back bumper, rechromed grill, recromed hood scoop with brand new scoop insert, brand new gold anodized Fairlane side trim still in boxes, brand new rocker moldings with the hockey stick moldings included, 2 new wide 50s tail pipe tips, steel fender skirts with rubber seals,  original center trunk antenna with new antenna cable to radio, new ignition and two keys,  new inside chrome mirror, new sun visors,new chrome door handles with new chrome pushbuttons, 4 new headlight accessory trim pieces, brand new gas tank and all new gas lines, etc etc. There is absolutely no rust on the car anywhere. The underneath is as nice as the outside body. The paint is about 7 years old and is excellent condition for a daily driver. It would have to be repainted to be showroom condition.  THE CONTINENTAL KIT IS THE ORIGINAL DEALER INSTALLED MODEL WHICH SELLS TODAY AT SWAP MEETS FOR UP TO $3000............
The things it needs to be finished are the mirrors out side, complete exhaust system that was quoted here in town at $325, rechromeing of the tail light bezels, trim around the convertible top and trim on the wing vents, install the used complete automatic shift column that is shown in some of the photos. I have about 1/3 of a gallon of the urethane paint left in the can. The rubber seals for the trunk, the doors and some other rubber has to be installed but it is all included with the car. The windlace is in the car and needs to be stapled in. 
I have a clear Oregon title in my name. Highest bidder owns the car.....NO RESERVE!!!!!

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.

Jay Leno and Lee Iacocca reflect on 50 years of Ford Mustang

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Lee Iacocca oversaw the birth of the Ford Mustang back in the 1960s, rocketing the new pony car nameplate into million-unit sales territory in its initial go-round and cementing its place in the history books. Thus, we were immediately drawn to this latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage, in which the funnyman hosts Iacocca for a look at the origins of Ford's most iconic sports car. The legendary auto exec is looking notably more frail than when we last saw him, but if we're being asked around as a video guest when we're 89 years old, we'll consider that evidence of a life well lived.
Serial No. 0001 is on hand for the occasion for Jay's romp through history, as is the historic Mustang 1 showcar from 1962. Of course, the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang GT (in prototype form) makes an appearance at the end of the episode with chief engineer Dave Pericak, as well. Get some, below.

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
