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 dinged by OSHA for asbestos at Buffalo plant

Sat, 20 Jul 2013

Ford has come under fire from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for violations regarding asbestos exposure in a company metal stamping plant in Buffalo, NY. OSHA has cited Ford for eight violations in total, according to an Automotive News report, and faces fines of up to $41,800. 537 workers are employed at the stamping facility.
The violations include a pipefitter at the facility being exposed to asbestos-containing material while working on a steam line, other workers exposed to the material without respiratory protection and work areas that were not designed to limited the number of workers in contact with asbestos. Further, areas in which asbestos was present were not properly restricted, and levels of asbestos in the air were not monitored.
According to an unnamed Ford spokesperson in the AN report, the company feels that the OSHA citation is erroneous saying, "We have fully cooperated with the local OSHA officials and we don't believe the citations are warranted." Ford also maintains that it will work with the authorities to resolve the issue.

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.

Former Ford president, Jaguar chairman Nick Scheele dead at 70

Sun, 20 Jul 2014

We have the privilege here at Autoblog of reporting a lot of good news, but it is our duty as well to report the bad news and sad news as well. And this is one of those occasions as the automotive industry mourns the passing of one of its leaders.
Nick Scheele was born in the UK in 1944 and joined the Ford Motor Company upon graduating from the University of Durham in 1966, staying within the Blue Oval's portfolio for the entirety of his career. After moving to North America in 1978, he rose through the ranks to become president of Ford's Mexican operations in 1988. After acquiring Jaguar, Ford appointed Scheele as its chairman.
Scheele subsequently acted as chairman of all of Ford's European operations, making difficult decisions to take the division out of the red and into the black. He briefly headed up Ford's North American division before he was appointed in 2001 as president and chief operating officer of the global automaker, working under CEO Bill Ford following the departure of Jacques Nasser departure and retaining the role until his retirement in 2005.
