Thanks for looking at my auction up for bid tonight is a car I am selling for a friend...1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sedan. Presently I am using the car for a daily driver and it runs great. This car has had an excellent start to restoration. The following is a list of items that have already been completed...

Engine and transmission rebuilt

New seats and dash done

New exhaust system (dual exhaust)

New voltage regulator

New Battery

New fuel pump - mechanical

New fuel sending unit (although not entirely happy with how it sends the signal to the gas gauge on the dash

The car had been painted but it is my daily driver and needs a good cleaning/polishing

New plugs, wires, coil and distributor

New master cylinder and brakes done all the way around (including wheel cylinders)

Rebuilt carb

Just replaced the brushes in the generator

 

 

I know I have spent way too much money as I have spent more than $3500 on the seats and dash alone. Now is the time for someone to carry on and finish the restoration. Unfortunately I am running out of money and don't want to see this wasted. The upholstery guy scratched the car on both sides (see pics) and then went out of business. Till it was used for a daily driver it was stored in a warehouse for more than 15 years.

The body is pretty straight there is a dent in the back bumper and trim piece but as well there is a small dent in the front grill (see pics)

Things I know for sure that I would do is replace the tires and the shocks and leaf springs...they had been replaced before but they are noisy right now and the leaf springs look like they have flattened out.

I HAVE THE CLEAR TITLE SIGNED AND READY TO BE TRANSFERED TO THE NEXT OWNER

I love driving this car...the heat works great the heater ducts have just been worked on to work better on Monday! The fan is in great condition.

There is no rust through........there are a few spots of minor rust starting to bubble but not very big in size.

It has a 260 cu inch engine that purrs like a kitten. Pump the gas once and turn key and starts perfectly. I noticed too that the pics do not show a air cleaner but I have a air cleaner that is now on the car (after market)

 

 

This car gets noticed every where I drive it.

 

Any questions feel free to ask.

 

Zero bidders please email me first.

 

I WILL BE WILL TO ASSIST WITH WORKING WITH ANY TRANSPORT COMPANY (YOUR COST).

 

$500 DEPOSIT DUE WITHIN 48 HOURS.

REASONABLE RESERVE PLACED. WILL NOT TELL RESERVE DURING AUCTION TIME. BUT HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH A COUPLE CAR CLUBS REGARDING VALUE AND PRICED IT JUST BELOW.

 

ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO ASK

Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
