1963 Ford Fairlane 500

2-Door Hardtop

California Car, Rust free

Available for auction is a driver quality 1963 Ford Fairlane 500. This vehicle presents itself very well, in a mostly original condition, rust free body and undercarriage and a tastefully appointed interior, period correct for this classic. This vehicle is a pleasure to drive and a great representation of Ford’s final year of sleek body style and fin era of 1963. Runs and drives great, shifts through all gears and the 4-wheel drum brakes stop the car promptly. This vehicle was a daily driver for many years, until its previous owner parked it. Always garage kept, which explains the outstanding shape of all the chrome, body and under carriage. Recently fluids/filters were changed, the fuel tank removed cleaned and serviced and the car is back on the road again.

Interior

The interior looks outstanding with no tears in the seats, Gauge cluster is in great shape, as well as all the dash components. The dash pad is in great shape with one minor tear. Door panels are in great shape, arm rests show some aging, but still functional. The headliner is in driver quality form, and has a few separations in the stitching, not hanging down, but could get re-stitched in place from your local upholstery provider. The original steering wheel was replaced; however the original steering wheel is in the trunk. All windows roll up and down smooth, doors open and close solid. All interior lights are in working order to include: dome light, under dash courtesy lights, gauge cluster lights, headlight indicator on gauge cluster & turn signal indicator. The radio works well with and in dash cassette player, but also is equipped with a multi- disc CD player in the trunk.

Exterior

All following exterior lights are in working order: Headlights, taillights, brake lights and turn signals. The paint appears to be original; the original door tag is present along with the original jacking instructions sticker still intact in the trunk. All chrome is present and in excellent condition. The body is laser straight, with minor imperfections of a few paint chips on the nose of the vehicle and infrequently along the length of the car. Also present are slight paint color variation in 3-4 spots (see video). The black section of the body line chrome is in need of touch up, but again this vehicle is represented as a driver quality classic, showing extremely well overall.

Motor/Transmission

The original engine this Fairlane came stock from the factory with was a V8 221 cubic inch, which unfortunately is no longer in the vehicle. However, it was replaced with a strong running/powerful 302 at some point, prior to my ownership. The 302 is paired with an automatic transmission that does have a small leak (4 drops over night). It shifts through all gears but may need service from a transmission shop to remedy fluid loss issue. The engine compartment and motor are ultra detailed, tastefully equipped with chrome valve covers, red painted 2 barrel Ford stock intake manifold, stock 2 barrel carburetor, red painted water pump, and exhaust manifolds to dual mufflers exiting at the rear of the car. The heater is functional and plumbed accordingly.

Undercarriage

The undercarriage of this Fairlane is solid. The frame rails/floor pans/torque boxes have never seen a repair and are presented in original condition.

Overall this is an outstanding vehicle that shows very well in the current condition. Offered in driver quality condition, this car would need very little to be a candidate for further restoration bringing it to excellent show stopper appearance, or drive it as is and enjoy the thumbs up as you cruise down the road. Being sold locally as well, this auction may end at any time. In person vehicle inspections are welcomed and encouraged as I may have missed minor details. I have described the condition/quality of the vehicle to the best of my ability. (See Video). The car is offered in as is condition with no warranty offered or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping of the vehicle with a $500.00 non-refundable deposit paid via Pay pal within 24 hours of the close of auction. Please make contact within the first 24 hours after auction closes. The remaining balance is to be paid via cash in hand or wire transfer. I reserve the right to relist if no contact is made. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

John Hennessey's personal 2015 HPE700 Supercharged Ford Mustang GT hits 195 mph

Wed, Feb 11 2015

Dressed in a coat of menacing black paint, the 2015 Hennessey Performance HPE700 Supercharged Ford Mustang GT definitely looks like one mean muscle machine. The 717-horsepower 'Stang proved that it can back up that aggressive appearance recently when company founder John Hennessey took his personal example to see just how fast it would go. The result down the 1.1-mile straight at the Continental Tires Proving Grounds in Uvalde, Texas, was over 195 miles per hour. The Mustang is nothing but a black blur and wall of supercharger wail as it buzzes by the camera at top speed. Despite the strong result, Hennessey doesn't seem done with the 'Stang yet. The car still seems to be pulling when it hits the rev limiter, and there's some straight track left ahead. After getting out, John Hennessey immediately says he thinks 200 mph is possible. The heart of the HPE700 is a 2.9-liter Roots-Type supercharger running at 7.25 psi. That's a pretty massive blower, especially when considering the 2.4-liter unit on the Hellcat V8. The engine also gets upgrades like improved injectors, a new fuel pump, stainless steel exhaust and recalibrated management. The company claims the upgraded Mustang can hit 60 in around 3.6 seconds and do the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds at 131 mph. Prices for the package start at $59,500, but this one would would ring up for $65,874. Hennessey Performance is limiting production to 500 of them for the 2015 model year. 2015 HPE700 Supercharged Mustang Rockets to 195.2 mph John Hennessey takes his personal Mustang GT on a Texas road trip Uvalde, Texas-Everything is bigger in Texas, especially when it comes to automotive performance. Texas also lays claim to the highest posted speed limit in America at 85 mph. Enter the team from Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) who are located just west of Houston. John Hennessey and his merry band of performance car builders like to go fast, so much so that they have their own 1/4 mile dragstrip next to their workshop. Recently, the Hennessey team wanted to test their 717 horsepower HPE700 Supercharged Mustang development car (John's personal car and occasional daily driver) beyond the 130+ mph speeds that they have seen on the dragstrip. "Thankfully, we had recently received an invitation from the guys at the Continental Tires proving grounds in Uvalde to come over and do some testing on their 8.0 mile high speed oval", said Hennessey.
