1965 Ford Fairlane 500 2door Hard Top on 2040-cars
Nixa, Missouri, United States
I Have a 1965 Ford Fairlane 500 2 door Hard top . The car is a "C" code 289 with 3 speed manual transmission on the colume. The car is fairly solid over all and runs like a top.I drove the car around the block and its a nice old car. The outside of the car is Black but is very dull and does need paint,the car was White from the factory. It looks good from 20ft and has a nice shine when wet so could be drove like it is of course.The car has a couple bubble spots of rust poping up but very solid for the most part. Both front floor pans have some rust.The driver side has had a piece of tin put down but you would want to cut it out and install a pan if you was restoring the car. The rear pans look good. The trunk pan has some pin holes and scaley rust on it when looking at the top side. Hard to see much of the bottom for the gas tank.The frame rails are nice and solid. Over all for a 1965 I think its in great shape. I do have a bunch of trim from the car. Some is good and some is bad so depends on the look you are going for if you need the trim. The inside of the car shows some age. Needs seats and carpet redone along with headliner. Is blue and white inside. The engine purrs like a kitten. Has had a Edelbrock 4 barrel intake and carb installed.Carries good oil pressure and does not over heat.The trans pulls and shifts good. The brakes are good and does not pull to one side or the other. I have been running off a gas can under the hood just because I didnt know what kind of shape the gas was in that is in the tank. Needs new ignition installed but does come with car. I jumped the selonoide and ran a hot wire to the coil. Installed new points and condensor. With just a little time and money spent ono the car you can be driving it as much as you want. I can get these things done for the purchaser at a extra cost if you do not want to do them yourself. Tires are like new. The car came out of Georgia so it has a Bill of Sale of course as they do not title old cars. I will try to send that paper work in here in Mo. this week as I have everything already to get the title thru Mo. It takes about 7 to 10 days normally. So as the car stands right now has a Billof sale out of Georgia with it but if I get that sent in this week I will update the listing letting everyone know that I have done that.

Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
