1964 fairlane 500, 289 V8 4 speed toploader transmission. 4:11 positraction, polished american mags.I started restoration on this car in 2006 and worked on it as I had time. the original 260 was replaced with A 289, and the three speed was replaced with A 4 speed toploader transmission rebuilt by dan williams toploaders in north carolina, the 3:00 rear end was replaced with A 4:11 posi tract. I put 15 inch tires on the rear and 14 inch on the front, for the stance, and for the new gear. I replaced the complete front end, including new coil springs. I put brand new leaf springs on the rear, with traction bars.  I purchased bucket seats from A 64 fairlane sports coupe and the console. the whole interior was redone in original equipment interior from dennis carpenter. this has got to be the sharpest looking interior ford made that year.before putting in carpet I lined the floor board and doors with A rubberized heat and noise shield from jegs. then the interior was painted with candy apple red base coat, clear coat. then the outside was primered, and painted with the same base coat clear coat. I purchased A fiberglass hood from crites, and had it strengthened, for use with the stock hinges, and A light spring. I tried to make this car as original looking as possable, just like one that you would have ordered new in 1964, and the bubble hood for the nostalgia. even though the car has been finished for A few years, I have not put over two hundres miles on it. you can say just enough to work all the bugs out of it. I took it to the local ford dealer to have the front end alignment done, and it caused quite A stire. they ask me to leave it there as long as possable that day, because the customers and everyone else was coming in to look at it, and if I drive it anywhere, I just leave the windows down, so people can look inside all they want, and they all like to tell me about theire cars of the time. these cars really are A time capsule. because of my health I have decided to sell it, I hate having it just sit in the garage all the time, where no body can see it. I will try to cover everything with the photos. this car may not be perfect but it is just what I would have bought new from the showroom. I didnt buy my first new car until 1966, and it had all the bells and whistles too. the orginal 260 engine is is still here, incase any one would like to make A numbers matching car.  DO NOT LOOK AT THE DATE ON THE PICTURE. I DID NOT CHANGE THE DATE ON THE CAMERA, WHEN I CHARGED THE BATTERY SORRY i DID NOT WANT TO TAKE THEM OVER AGAIN

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]

Sun, 29 Jun 2014

If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.

Weekly Recap: Jaguar takes a leap with price cut, new strategy

Sat, Sep 5 2015

Jaguar was one of the famous automotive props and plotlines in the now-iconic drama Mad Men. There's a scene where the show's protagonist, Don Draper, deftly undercuts an influential Jaguar dealer by indicating that get-me-in-the-door local radio spots would be an effective way to sell cars like the slinky E-Type. The British executives think this is folly – Draper knows they will – and his advertising strategy wins out over the dealer's approach to move the metal. Jaguar's not doing that, but half a century later in the real world the company is launching plans to make its cars more attainable to new and younger customers like Millenials. These aren't coupons, but this is a leap for Jaguar, which has long banked on sexy styling and its rich motorsports history to overshadow its past mechanical flaws. Put simply, Jaguar is addressing the reasons why people, especially the younger set, don't buy its cars. The 2017 XE will start at $35,895 when it launches next spring – which makes it an attractive buy for a successful, relatively young person. When it's time to move up, the redesigned XF will be more attainable, coming in at $52,895, which is $5,275 less than the 2015 model. The flagship XJ sedan and the enthusiast-oriented F-Type sports car will also get thousands of dollars worth of added standard features, and Jag is actively pitching them as a better value than their competitors. "The Jaguar brand is on the eve of a major transformation that will see it dramatically increase its presence in the United States luxury marketplace with an expanded lineup, pricing focused on the core of the luxury market, and an all-new ownership package with best-in-class coverage," Joe Eberhardt, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover North America, said in a statement. The brand's quality and reliability dings have also lurked in the back of buyers' minds for decades, though that's an outdated notion. Jaguar placed third in J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study in June and was the top-ranked luxury brand in J.D. Power's Customer Service Index in March. Not content, the company is rolling out an enhanced program called Jaguar EliteCare that launches on 2016 models. It offers a five-year, 60,000-mile limited warranty, the longest among its competitors, with free scheduled maintenance during that period. The plan also covers roadside assistance and connectivity features.
