1964 Ford Fairlane Sports Coupe. California Car originally.
I am the second family owner on this car. I purchased it off Ebay 5 1/2 years ago. The only rust ever other than minor surface rust was the battery tray, which has since been replaced. [see pictures] The inner fenderwell is undamaged. The only paintwork ever done on this car was a repaint on the drivers front fender. It was done before I bought it. Everything else is original. The interior is all original also. As you can see in the pictures, the Calif Sun wasn't too kind. Padded dash is discolored, but I cant find any cracks.
The car has exceptional history. I have loads of paperwork and receipts. It runs and drives out very well. All the parts pictured go with the car. I have a lot of other parts including a full front disc setup with power dual bowl master cylinder, and parts to redo the rear brakes including shoes and drums. I have an extra front grill and rear panel, starter, wiper motor, and a few other parts I keep finding out I forgot I had. I have a lot of money in extras, The disc setup was $750 alone. ...........If the buy it now price is used, I will let everything else I have go with the car............
I do not have an original set of steel wheels, but I do have 5 original hubcaps. The magnums are in good shape and the BFGs have only a couple thousand miles on them. The picture of the odometer looks like rust, but is actual reflection from the red interior. Its actually chromed plastic an in really pretty nice shape.
I could write pages on the car, and still forget something. So check out the pictures and please ask questions.
Now about me. I have been an Ebay member for a long time. I have 100% feedback. There is a reason for that, I'm honest and not out to screw anybody. And I have been careful about the sellers I have dealt with. With very few exceptions they have all been great. If you are new to Ebay contact me before bidding, I would be open to work with you. .....I am not going to go through all non payers,pay within a reasonable amount of time,etc,etc......Hopefully we are all adults. Buy it if you really want it, dont if you don't.
Like I stated earlier, Ask questions if there is anything you need to know about the car. I can be reached at [309] 781-2406 If I don't answer leave a message, I will call you back.

Ford invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.
Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]
Fri, 27 Jun 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.
Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?
Wed, 30 Oct 2013A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.
