Up for sale is my personal 1965 Ford Fairlane 500 4 door sedan. I found this car sitting inside of a warehouse over a year ago and bought it from the original owners Grandson.
The car had been sitting inside since 1990. I was told the odometer was indeed the actual mileage and it is not staggered like they do when they roll over. I brought the car home and pulled the fuel tank off, cleaned it out, treated it, cleaned the fuel lines and carburetor, Undercoated the entire under carriage, changed the fluids, re installed the fuel tank and have been driving it around town since. All of the glass is good, new wiper blades, all lights work, blinkers, etc. heater works good, AM radio plays good, has sport coupe flipper hubcaps, original spare and jack assembly still in place, 289 engine runs smooth, transmission shifts as should. Car needs a minor restoration It's NEEDS include, brake adjustment, likes to pull to the left a little, bumpers need re chromed ,will need tires, these have good tread but are dry from sitting, needs front floor pan patch panels, the rear is solid and the trunk pan is solid, as are the rocker panels, under neath the doors etc. Car received a repaint in the mid 1980's It will need to be stripped and repainted, there are some minor body flaws such as dings and a couple of small dents but nothing major, car does have some old filler that will need to be repaired, but not much, it was not a rust bucket nor is it a rust bucket. It's a very fun old car to drive, gets a lot of attention , I am just ready for a new toy. Car comes with a legal bill of sale and a copy of its current registration which you may use in your state to obtain a title and tag. One year only body style Please ask all questions prior to bidding, do not bid unless you plan on buying.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a bit of a dyno issue
Tue, 28 May 2013We're of the mind that each and every dyno should come with Murphy's Law painted in big, visible letters down the side. For every ten successful dyno runs out there, it seems there's one where events to horribly wrong. Take, for example, the video below. The clip shows what happens when a Ford Shelby GT500 and a mobile dyno have a bit of a disagreement at the Performance Expo 24 in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We won't spoil the results for you, but we will say there's some substantial carnage involved.
It's unclear just how much damage ensues from the dust up or whether anyone was harmed in the incident, but from the looks of things, everyone made it out without serious injury. If only we could say the same for the machines involved. Check out the video below.
NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Ford Transit production fires up, American Pickers among first takers
Wed, 30 Apr 2014Not long ago, the History Channel showed a seemingly unending stream of World War II documentaries, but it made a switch a few years ago to include an increasing mix of 'reality' programming. American Pickers was one of the early attempts at this new formula, with cameras following hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz around the country in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as they tracked down collectibles and "rusty gold" for their Iowa shop, Antique Archeology. The show has since gone on to become one of the channel's most popular programs.
Starting in the new episode airing tonight, the affable hosts will swap their Benz for a 2015 Ford Transit, a nicely timed bit of marketing to coincide with the launch of the model's assembly at the Blue Oval's Kansas City Assembly Plant, which also kicks off this week. Ford is touting 2,000 new jobs created as part of its $1.1-billion investment in the plant.
No strangers to product placement, the guys from American Pickers say their switch away from the Sprinter is because they wanted to balance cargo capacity and fuel economy to make the most of their cross-country jaunts. They opted for the largest Transit available with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof, giving them 487 cubic feet of cargo room. Hauling power comes from a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel engine with 190 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque and a six-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Fittingly, the van wears the same Antique Archaeology logo over white paint as their old Sprinter.
