Pictures tell that story. Split bench seat up front. ($1900 invested) Exterior: Painted 8 years ago. Some minor chips and scratches no holes. Only spot that shows signs of wear are in the rt rear quarter. Small bubbles starting on the bottom behind the rear wheel. Not major, just laying it all out there. A quick re paint and you'll have a near perfect exterior. Door handles and trim are all there. Show signs of wear because they are 50 years old... ($5000 Invested) Undercarriage: SOLID SOLID SOLID.

($1800 Invested) I have over 12K invested in this project and my reserve is far less than that. It's funny how the 65 Fairlane was a single year design but everywhere I go, folks come up to me with a story about someone they know owned or had a 65 mustang or galaxie or even yet actually owned one of these rare Fairlanes. This one is not perfect, (8 out of 10) but it holds its own at a car show and cruise. Not a junk old car and well worth the investment. Door jams are clean, doors shut smooth. Just needs a new home. Please do not hesitate to contact me for more info and yes I am open to trades if yours is worth more than mine and it's an old muscle car or hot rod or 1950's ford pick up! Thanks, Steve 724-nine8nine-8298 |

Ford turns Navistar from truck business customer to rival
Mon, 19 May 2014There is a showdown brewing in the medium-duty truck segment next year as Ford prepares to launch its all-new, in-house engineered 2016 F-650 and F-750. It finally marks the end of the Blue Diamond joint venture between Ford and Navistar and, making the two entities direct competitors instead of partners.
Ford announced the end of the joint venture in an investor report in 2011, but it didn't reveal the new F-650 and F-750 until the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN, in March. Unlike the current, Mexican-built models, the new generation will be built in Avon Lake, OH, starting in mid-2015.
The challenge from Ford comes during a rough patch for Navistar. The company had a $248 million loss in the first quarter, according to The Wall Street Journal, and its medium-duty truck market share is currently down to 26 percent, from 36 percent in 2011. Building the previous-generation Fords brought in about $400 million a year to Navistar, according to the WSJ. To take on its former partner, Navistar plans to offer its International brand of medium-duty vehicles with more engine and transmission options to customers. It even struck a deal with Cummins to put its diesels in some of the models.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.
