1966 Ford Fairlane 500 2 Door Coupe on 2040-cars
Branson, Missouri, United States
Offered for sale is a fine example of the 1966 Ford Fairlane 500. A growingly popular mid size muscle car among the Ford contingent, the sleek swept lines of the Fairlane have been sought after for many years and the added benefit of more passenger space, a larger trunk and better handling than the Pony car Mustang brethren make it a smart choice for today's buyer.
This particular example has been well restored, cared for and presents itself extremely well. Upgraded Power Front disc brakes, Power Steering, a mildly performance built 289cu in V8 with 4 bbl carburetor, performance camshaft, block hugger headers and a Flowmaster equipped dual exhaust REALLY wake this car up and give it the performance to match it's good looks. Very glossy Wimbledon White paint and complimenting Night Mist Blue stripes are sealed in a Base Coat/Clear Coat modern paint that will stay glossy looking and low maintenance for years to come. Riding on 15" Retro American Racing Torque Thrust wheels with the polished outer rim and Nexen 205/55R/15 performance radials make this car a dream to drive on either the straight stretches or the curvy backroads. The completely rebuilt front suspension, coupled with boxed subframe connectors tie the car together for just such an instance. The sheetmetal appears to be all original and is rust free. The paint has been professionally applied. Interior has been upgraded in material and features a nice stripe matching medium blue cloth throughout and 5 seatbelt locations provide the needed safety factor to bring friends and family along for the ride. Underneath of the car is solid, original but well detailed and the factory torque boxes are in factory condition. The professionally built C4 automatic transmission features 3 speeds and shifts crisply and cleanly every time. As a matter of condition, this car still retains its original Owners Manual and Original Ownership information and was sold new in Republic, MO on 4/28/1966. Seems to not have traveled far outside its home in over 40 years. (See pics for details) As mentioned, the Ford Fairlane is growing in popularity as all of the Mustangs get sucked up and the prices go through the roof. This is a lot of car....for not a lot of money....you should buy it! Call Tom or Jim at 417-335-2600 for more details. |

Ford halves summer shutdown, ramps SUV production
Tue, Jun 2 2015For the third consecutive year, Ford is reducing the length of its summer shutdown for several factories to keep up with high demand for some models. This year, the decision means 40,000 more units of popular trucks and crossovers like the F-Series, Edge, Escape, and Explorer. Rather than the normal two-week break, workers at the Chicago, Dearborn Truck, Kansas City, Kentucky Truck, Louisville, and Oakville factories will only get a week off starting on June 29. Additionally, 10 plants for producing components to support these assembly lines will also have the shorter vacation. The rest of the Blue Oval's manufacturing locations will shutdown from June 29 to July 10 for maintenance and retooling. According to Ford, the decision comes because of low inventories and high demand on some of its popular models. The 2015 F-150 is lasting around 20 days at dealers, and the Edge spends an average of 10 days before being sold. Ford is hardly alone in deciding to keep locations open during the normal summer break, though. FCA recently made the decision not to shutdown four assembly plants and all of its factories for components to keep up with demand for models like the Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, and Dodge Durango.

In response to increased customer demand, Ford will add capacity this summer to produce its most popular trucks and utilities Ford will shorten its summer shutdown from the traditional two-week summer shutdown to one week for a majority of North American assembly plants, increasing production by close to 40,000 units In April, Ford F-150 was turning at just 20 days on dealer lots, Edge sales were up 78 percent, and Escape and Explorer remained in tight supply. 2016 Explorers are now hitting dealer lots In response to customer demand for Ford's newest products, the company this year will produce close to 40,000 extra units by idling select plants for only one week during what has been the traditional two-week summer shutdown.. "To meet surging customer demand for our top-selling trucks and utilities, we are continuing to run our North American facilities during the traditional two-week summer shutdown in order to add close to 40,000 units," said Bruce Hettle, Ford vice president, North America Manufacturing.
