1966 Ford Fairlane GT 390

One owner car - 62,530 miles

True survivor car - absolutely gorgeous

Midnight blue exterior - blue interior

Original window sticker

Original bill of sale

This Fairlane GT is the absolute real deal.  I literally got this GT from the original owner out of his front yard just a few weeks ago.  I have the signed title from the original owner in hand.  When I was looking at the car and talking price with the elderly gentleman I ask him "How long have you had the car?"  and he said to me in the manner an older gentleman would "I bought it new".  After I picked my jaw up off the ground he continued to tell me that he had the original window sticker, bill of sale, and title in the house.  He replaced the exhaust in 1995 for which there is a receipt, put brakes on it and replaced the water pump.  I believe that's all that's been done to the car since the day he drove it home from the dealer.

Check out the window sticker and bill of sale.  Car came with an AM radio option, two speed wipers, and a deluxe steering wheel from the factory.  I've never actually seen a factory deluxe steering wheel before.  It is beautiful.  There is one rip in the passenger front seat vinyl and some minor rust behind the front wheel wells which is obviously quite normal.  The car was garage kept its entire life.  It has a beautiful patina with some small scuffs and so forth , actually very befitting such an awesome survivor car.  The owner ordered the car with the XL chrome package which was installed by the dealer as shown on the bill of sale.  It has factory chrome valve covers.

This Fairlane GT is a stunning example of a true survivor.  I personally wouldn't do a thing to it, it is beautiful as it is and all original, but if someone wanted to bring it to concourse level it would be a perfect car to have as this Fairlane GT is certainly one the finest survivor cars of its kind in the country.  

I've set a very reasonable reserve for this classic piece of  Ford history, so bid to win.  If you're the winning bidder you will absolutely love this Fairlane GT.  If for any reason you come to pick it up and aren't perfectly satisfied you don't have to take her, no problem.  But I can assure you, once you see her in person, you'll see what a beautiful classic survivor this is.  Happy bidding and good luck.

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.

Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.

Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
