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

2015 Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition says 'happy birthday' in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Fifty years ago this week, Ford debuted the first-ever Mustang at the New York World's Fair. And to celebrate, the Blue Oval is offering up this special, 50th Anniversary Edition 2015 Mustang, which makes its debut at the New York Auto Show. It'll be a seriously limited affair, with only 1,964 examples of the special edition Mustang slated to be produced (the number chosen to coincide with the 'Stang's first year in production). But for those who raise their hands for the 50th Anniversary package, there's a pretty sweet package in store.
The 50th Anniversary Edition is based on the 2015 Mustang GT with the Performance Pack, and is only available in two colors: Kona Blue, or Wimbledon White (pictured). The car also comes fully loaded - the only option for buyers to choose is the transmission. Should you opt for the six-speed automatic, you'll get a limited-slip rear differential with a 3.55:1 final-drive ratio (the 50th Anniversary car is also the only way to get a slushbox-equipped 'Stang with the Performance Pack). Selecting the six-speed manual 'box will net you a Torsen differential with a 3.73:1 ratio. All 50th Anniversary cars will be powered by Ford's 5.0-liter, naturally aspirated V8, estimated to produce more than 420 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque in the 2015 Mustang.
Inside, there's a cashmere-stitched, leather-wrapped steering wheel, with a similar detail found on the instrument panel, shift boot, door inserts, seats, and center armrest. Two-tone leather/black upholstery is also part of the 50th Anniversary package, and of course, there's a special logo on the seats.
Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
Ford F-150 Tremor to pace NASCAR Truck Series this weekend
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ford's bro-tastic F-150 Tremor will be pacing this weekend's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Michigan International Speedway. The Tremor fills a gap in the Ford F-Series lineup that we imagine the NASCAR set have clamored for - a hot-rod pickup truck.
Where the F-150 Raptor is designed to go quick on anything, the Tremor and its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are designed to tackle the road. The 365-horsepower and 420-pound-foot EcoBoost is unchanged from the rest of the F-150 line, but it combines the shortest drive ratio with the lightest two-door body, making it a bit of hot rod.
Ford will be offering hot laps with Michigan native Brad Keselowski behind the wheel of the Tremor for fans that arrive in the Irish Hills on August 14. The main showing for the new pickup will be the August 17 race, though, when it'll lead the field at the start of the race and through cautions.
