Tacoma, Washington, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: rwd
Model: Fairlane
Mileage: 0
Trim: 500
Up for sale is my 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe.
I picked up this car a long time ago with plans to fix it up as a sleeper.
Unfortunately plans have changed and I have decided to sell it in hopes that someone out
there will have the motivation and appreciation to put this classic back together and enjoy it.
This Fairlane originally came with a 260 V8 and a 2 speed auto transmission.
It now has a early to mid 70's 302 V8 with a C4 auto.
The rear end is the stock 8 inch housing with a 3.55 locker differential. Car originally came with 3.00 open gears.
As far as history of the car goes, I only know of roughly the last 15-20 years! other then that I do not know much after that.
This car does run and drive. This car has a lot of juice when you lay into it and is pretty fast for what it is.
The engine runs fairly good, the carb could use a fine tuning.
The transmission shifts through all the gears fine but does leak fluid.
The brakes need work. Master cylinder is about toast, the car has drum brakes all around.
The mileage on the car is either 65k or 165k not sure, but assuming 165k. The drive train mileage is unknown.
In the past a Malory pointsless distributor and ignition system was installed along with a mild cam.
The Holley carb, edelbrock intake, and headers along with the rest of the exhaust was installed in the past as well.
All electrical works except the windshield wipers have stopped working.
The only things I have done to the car
Full tune up and changed all fluids (engine, trans, and rear end).
Overhauled the carburator.
Replaced the fuel pump.
Put on new rear air shocks.
Picked up a nice straight rear bumper that just needs to be rechromed.
As far as the body goes, I have not done one thing to it other than clean it up.
Things that are missing.
The door panels,
Rear hat tray.
Driver side window regulator,
Most of the lower console trim,
Trunk lock,
Unfortunately the rear window is missing.
Other than said items, it is all there.
This car is in decent shape for being 49 years old. It does have dings, rust ect.
It does have some rust in the floor boards but it is not too bad. They can be easily repaired.
Trunk pan has surface rust, no rot. Passenger fender has rust bubbling on the lower half.
Rear quarter panels do not have rot but the driver side has some slight bubbles starting.
Passenger side quarter panel has a little bit of filler like some one in the past did a repair on some dents.
Passenger fender was replaced sometime in the past, probably from past damage!
Some filler on the passenger side corner of the hood. Battery tray has rust of course.
Rest of the car looks and appears solid.
The trim and emblems are all there. Driver side fender "fairlane 500" emblem is missing a 0.
The paint is a cheap paint job done in the past (actually have the receipt)
The rims are rusty and the two front tires are shot. The rear tires are decent with a lot of tread but they are old.
This car is all around a decent car that is in need of some TLC.
Even though this car does run and drive, I am selling it as a project NOT a daily driver or pristine show car.
This car is a great starting platform for building back to original, thunderbolt clone, street rod, ect. the choice is yours.
The registration is years expired.
I DO hold a clean title in hand for this car.
This car is being sold AS-IS
I have tried to describe this car as accurately to the best of my knowledge.

US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction
Wed, 07 Aug 2013For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack
Sat, May 30 2015With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.
Ford Ranger-based 7-seat SUV spotted testing
Wed, 29 May 2013Ford looks to be working on a new SUV version of its global Ranger pickup truck. An early prototype of a seven-passenger SUV based on the Ranger has been spotted testing in Australia, and word has it buyers in the region could expect to see the model in showrooms as soon as 2014, where it could sail under the Endeavour or Everest badges. Ford Australia currently sells the Territory SUV, so there's some chance that this model could be a successor to that throne, as well.
Whatever it's called, the long-roof Ranger will feature a shorter wheelbase and more ground clearance than its pickup twin, giving the machine a bit more off-road functionality. (And here we thought we couldn't want the global Ranger any more than we already do.) While this particular vehicle sports a Territory back half grafted onto a Ranger front end, odds are a public reveal of the finished product could occur as soon as the second half of 2014, making it a 2015 model.
