1964 Ford Fairlane 500 four door sedan. This car was stored in a dairy barn since 1979. The gentleman that originally owned the vehicle replaced the original 260 V8 engine with a 289 Special that he had acquired from a wrecked low mileage 65-66 Mustang. The reason he changed the engine was because the original 260 threw its oil pump through the oil pan. The car has not run since 1979 and appears to be very solid. The floors and the trunk compartment are solid with no rust through. The front fenders have some minor rust holes coming in the lower sections. The inner fender at the battery box is rusted out, but all the shock towers are solid with not signs of visible rust. The left rear quarter panel was damaged in the late 1970s, and the owner attempted to beat the fender back out. There is no sign of rot in the rear quarters. The under carriage including all boxed framing appears to be solid and complete. There are some parts missing from the car and I have no idea what the gentleman did with the parts. The parts that are missing from what I can see is the master cylinder, power steering pump, headlight bezels, hubcaps, spare tire, jack, and the grille. Although there is a grille in the trunk which is in good condition, it appears the grille is from a 1963 Fairlane rather than the 64. There is an extra set of taillights in the trunk as well as a few other parts that goes with the vehicle. All of the glasses are in good shape, but the exhaust system has deteriorated. The car is not running and has not been started since 1979, so please be advised that this is not a vehicle that someone can drive away. It will require towing and time to get it back into running condition. I am including enough pictures to give an accurate depiction of the overall condition of the vehicle. Please take the time to study the pictures and ask questions prior to bidding. All questions will be answered honestly and as accurately as possible.
The vehicle is currently being sold as-is and where-is with no warranty implied or expressed. Make sure to ask any and all questions prior to bidding on this vehicle. A deposit of $200.00 dollars will be required within 3 days from the close of auction. The buyer is responsible for shipping and transport.

Ford Fiesta banned from SCCA autocrossing because of rollover risk
Wed, Jan 14 2015Autocross can be a great way to break into motorsports, especially at SCCA events that allow run-of-the-mill, street-legal vehicles to be run through the cones in parking lots across the country. But while a wide array of vehicles are eligible, not every one is. And now the Ford Fiesta has been removed from the list of qualifying vehicles in the Sports Car Club of America's Street category for solo events. The removal of the Fiesta was publicized in the latest issue of the SCCA's Fastrack News bulletin, which stated that, due to roll-over risk, Fiestas "do not meet the requirements and are to be removed" from the HS category of eligible vehicles. H Stock (or HS for short) is the lowest category of vehicles certified by the SCCA for use in sanctioned events. The disqualification applies to Fiestas from the 2011 model year onwards, and does not apply to the Fiesta ST, which remains eligible. Of course the Fiesta isn't the only model deemed ineligible for SCCA autocross events. According to Jalopnik, other small hatchbacks and crossovers including the Dodge Caliber, Fiat 500, Scion xB and iQ, Nissan Juke and Mini Countryman are also prohibited from competition. We've reached out to both Ford and the SCCA for clarification on the issue, and will issue an update if and when we receive any substantial information.
The next-generation wearable will be your car
Fri, Jan 8 2016This year's CES has had a heavy emphasis on the class of device known as the "wearable" – think about the Apple Watch, or Fitbit, if that's helpful. These devices usually piggyback off of a smartphone's hardware or some other data connection and utilize various onboard sensors and feedback devices to interact with the wearer. In the case of the Fitbit, it's health tracking through sensors that monitor your pulse and movement; for the Apple Watch and similar devices, it's all that and some more. Manufacturers seem to be developing a consensus that vehicles should be taking on some of a wearable's functionality. As evidenced by Volvo's newly announced tie-up with the Microsoft Band 2 fitness tracking wearable, car manufacturers are starting to explore how wearable devices will help drivers. The On Call app brings voice commands, spoken into the Band 2, into the mix. It'll allow you to pass an address from your smartphone's agenda right to your Volvo's nav system, or to preheat your car. Eventually, Volvo would like your car to learn things about your routines, and communicate back to you – or even, improvise to help you wake up earlier to avoid that traffic that might make you late. Do you need to buy a device, like the $249 Band 2, and always wear it to have these sorts of interactions with your car? Despite the emphasis on wearables, CES 2016 has also given us a glimmer of a vehicle future that cuts out the wearable middleman entirely. Take Audi's new Fit Driver project. The goal is to reduce driver stress levels, prevent driver fatigue, and provide a relaxing interior environment by adjusting cabin elements like seat massage, climate control, and even the interior lighting. While it focuses on a wearable device to monitor heart rate and skin temperature, the Audi itself will use on-board sensors to examine driving style and breathing rate as well as external conditions – the weather, traffic, that sort of thing. Could the seats measure skin temperature? Could the seatbelt measure heart rate? Seems like Audi might not need the wearable at all – the car's already doing most of the work. Whether there's a device on a driver's wrist or not, manufacturers seem to be developing a consensus that vehicles should be taking on some of a wearable's functionality.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
