1968 Ford Fairlane Base 4.7l 2 Door Coupe on 2040-cars
Southington, Connecticut, United States
|
Selling my 1968 Ford Fairlane. The vehicle was always stored inside, but at one time it was stored with the trunk exposed(Paint fading in trunk lid and trunk drops and lower quarter panels have rust). The Fairlane is all original other than the Driver's side front fender, which was replaced by a rust free original Fairlane fender. The car currently has a 1991 351w from an f-150. The engine has a 4 barrel Elderbock intake but it's set up with a block plate to run a 2 barrel carb, it has a new timing chain, water pump,, thermostat and hoses. I have the original engine to the car, but it's disassembled. The original C-4 transmission works fine and the original 8 inch rear end also. The car has working drum brakes(Non powered). The interior is in mint shape, original dash and seat covers without wear and tears. Rear deck cover is also in one section and no speaker cut offs. All original glass in great working condition. Doors are rust free as the hood, trunk, fenders. The vinyl top is nearly perfect. The underneath of the car is rust free other than a small 2 inch area in the rear drivers seat corner. Front and rear frame rails look amazing as the radiator support and front frame rails. Torque boxes are solid. Car has power steering and tires are ok. The front suspension is also solid. The trunk has the original tank and the original jack. Trim is in descent condition but I am missing the driver's side fender nose trim. I have one original CT title dated 1978 and numerous receipts. I have a fair reserve and selling the car locally so I have the option to end the auction early. The pictures speak for themselves and have many more available if need be. Email me with your cell or e-mail if you want to see something specific. Good luck and thank you for bidding. Ruben.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room
Fri, 08 Mar 2013A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
