2-Door Hardtop

California Car, Rust free

Available for auction is a driver quality 1963 Ford Fairlane 500. This vehicle presents itself very well, in a mostly original condition, rust free body and undercarriage with a tastefully appointed interior, period correct for this classic. Runs and drives great, shifts through all gears and the brakes stop the car promptly. This vehicle was a daily driver for many years, always garage kept, which explains the outstanding shape of all the chrome, body and under carriage. Recently fluids/filters were changed, and is driving just like it had in 1963

Interior

The interior looks outstanding with no tears in the seats, Gauge cluster is in great shape, as well as all the dash components. The dash pad is in great shape with one minor tear. Door panels are in great shape, arm rests show some aging, but still functional. The headliner is in driver quality form, and has a few separations in the stitching, not hanging down, but could get re-stitched. The original steering wheel was replaced; however the original steering wheel is in the trunk. All windows roll up and down smooth, doors open and close solid. All interior lights are in working order to include: dome light, under dash courtesy lights, gauge cluster lights, headlight indicator on gauge cluster & turn signal indicator. The radio works well with and in dash cassette player, but also is equipped with a multi- disc CD player in the trunk.

Exterior

All following exterior lights are in working order: Headlights, taillights, brake lights and turn signals. The paint appears to be original; the original door tag is present along with the original jacking instructions sticker still intact in the trunk. All chrome is present and in excellent condition. The body is laser straight, with minor imperfections of a few paint chips on the nose of the vehicle and infrequently along the length of the car. Also present are slight paint color variations in a few spots, the body is smooth and in excellent shape. This vehicle is represented as a driver quality classic, showing extremely well overall.

Motor/Transmission

The original engine this Fairlane came stock from the factory with was a V8 221 cubic inch, which was replaced with a strong running/powerful 302. The 302 is paired with a C4 automatic transmission that does have a very small leak. The engine compartment and motor are ultra detailed with dual mufflers exiting at the rear of the car. The heater is functional and plumbed accordingly.

Undercarriage

The undercarriage of this Fairlane is solid. The frame rails/floor pans/torque boxes have never seen a repair and are presented in original condition.

Overall this is an outstanding vehicle that shows very well in the current condition. Offered in driver quality condition, this car would need very little to be a candidate for further restoration bringing it to excellent show stopper appearance, or drive it as is and enjoy the thumbs up as you cruise down the road. Being sold locally as well, this auction may end at any time. In person vehicle inspections are welcomed and encouraged as I may have missed minor details. I have described the condition/quality of the vehicle to the best of my ability. (See Video). The car is offered in as is condition with no warranty offered or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping of the vehicle with a $500.00 non-refundable deposit paid via Pay pal within 24 hours of the close of auction.

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:

Lincoln trumpets $129M investment, 300 new jobs in Louisville for MKC

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

Remember when we used to talk about how close Lincoln was to being axed and how it seemed any day now the Grim Reaper would use it as a car service back to the grave? Last time we did it was, oh, not even a month ago. What a difference 27 days makes: Ford and Lincoln are trumpeting a $129M investment in the Louisville Assembly Plant that builds the MKC.
In July the MKC was the third-best-selling Lincoln of the brand's six offerings, beat by the MKZ and - by a much smaller margin - the MKX. It has sold 2,895 units in the two months it's been on sale, which is more than half the year-to-date sales of the MKS, MKT and Navigator. It's already important, is what we're trying to say, and this is before the Chinese market gets a crack at it later this year.
The money headed to Kentucky will be joined by 300 new workers, another marker in Ford's march to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the US by next year. You can read more about it in the press release below.

2015 Ford Mustang renders reveal look of the real thing

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

This is, according to the pony-car obsessed kids over at Mustang6G.com, the closest, most accurate rendering of the new, 2015 Ford Mustang to date. Artis Chazcron used a combination of Ford CAD images and information from assorted spy shots to assemble a fairly handsome car, albeit one that conforms to the tired cliché of being more evolutionary than revolutionary.
Now, it's very important to note that these are still speculative renders, and that they only represent the base car - that could explain the lack of the Mustang's vestigial side scoops, along with other, newer styling cues that Mustang6G seems to think will arrive on production models. Those items include a new, double-bubble roof, although the Mustang aficionados claim that even if it were present, it'd barely be visible from these angles.
The front end is pretty spot on, compared to what we've seen from earlier spy shots, while the tail, with its interesting light design is something new. The louvered taillights look quite different from the current version, obviously, though Mustang has gone the whimsical route with taillights before. Also, note the new rear diffuser uses an integrated reverse light and rear foglight, the latter of which is required for sale in Europe.
