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 with a tastefully appointed interior, period correct for this classic. Runs and drives great, shifts through all gears and the brakes stop the car promptly. This vehicle was a daily driver for many years, always garage kept, which explains the outstanding shape of all the chrome, body and under carriage. Recently fluids/filters were changed, and is driving just like it had in 1963

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. 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 variations in a few spots, the body is smooth and in excellent shape. 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 was replaced with a strong running/powerful 302. The 302 is paired with a C4 automatic transmission that does have a very small leak. The engine compartment and motor are ultra detailed with 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.

Volvo, Kia and BYD duke it out in the finals for World Car of 2024

Mon, Feb 26 2024

Three electric vehicles — none produced by an American manufacturer Â— will compete next month for the title of 2024 World Car of the Year, it was announced Monday. The finalists are the Kia EV9, the Volvo EX30Â and the BYD SealÂ (shown above). The latter two are built in China. The three top finalists in five other categories were also named at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. The winners in all six categories will be revealed live during an awards ceremony at the New York International Auto Show on March 27. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. Besides car of the year, the other finalists are: Electric vehicle: BMW i5, Kia EV9, Volvo EX30; Luxury car: BMW 5 Series/i5, Mercedes Benz E-Class, Mercedes Benz EQE SUV; Performance car: BMW M2, BMW XM, Hyundai Ionia 5 N; Urban car: BYD Dolphin, Lexus LBX, Volvo EX30; World Car Design: Ford Bronco, Ferrari Purosangue, Toyota Prius. Only Ford among U.S. companies has an entry in the final selections, and only in one category, design, for the Bronco. BMW has four vehicles in the finals, Volvo has three, Kia and Mercedes have two each. BYD from China has two entries as well. The Seal went on sale in in its home market in 2022 and is now available in most of the rest of the world. The BYD Co. (which stands for Build Your Dreams) has surpassed Tesla to become the worldÂ’s biggest maker of electric vehicles, and has its sights set on the U.S. The selection process for World Cars involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. Design/Style Geneva Motor Show BMW Ferrari Ford Hyundai Kia Lexus Mercedes-Benz Toyota Volvo Best Cars World Car of the Year

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost

Fri, 16 May 2014

Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.

Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.
