1968 Ford Fairlane 500 Formal Hardtop 2 Door Classic! In Great Original Cond. on 2040-cars
Midland, Georgia, United States
|
I have a rare and hard to find 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 Formal Hardtop for sale. This rare 68 beauty is all original and unmolested (other than a re-paint) It only has 101k miles and RUNS, DRIVES and HANDLES absolutely amazing! The original 302 runs extremely strong. No smoke, no leaks, and appears to have been built at some point. It has dual exhaust and sounds awesome! It has been well maintained mechanically as you'll see when you drive it. It has new tires. Brakes have been re-done and stop the car very well. It does not have power brakes or power steering but the brakes work so well you wouldn't know they aren't power. THIS IS an original A/C car and all the components are there. The fan will blow but the compressor does not come on. I can't stress enough how great this car runs and drives! This car is VERY ROAD WORTHY and needs nothing mechanically! Drive it anywhere! I would consider this car a "sleeper". Put on some nice looking vintage style sporty wheels and tires and that would top it off! In fact, I took the Magnum 500 Wheels and tires off my 66 Mustang Fastback and put on the Fairlane. I took some pictures to show what it would like like. See the pics! I will sell the Magnum 500 Wheels with Cooper Cobra Tires in GREAT condition separately for an additional $700 THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE. The interior is in really nice condition and all original except the headliner...It's new. The carpet is original and only faded slightly in the sun exposed areas. The seat upholstery looks very nice for its age but does have a couple of tears in the driver seat area. One small tear in the center of driver area and then a larger tear in a "not so visible" area in the corner. The dash looks nice as well. All the components in the dash work. The only thing missing is the original radio. It has an aftermarket radio installed and mounted under the dash so no holes were cut. Door panels look good but do have some fading The trunk area is all original and in good condition. No rot or rust anywhere in the trunk. Still has the original spare tire mounted in its place with the jack. It appears the fuel tank has been replaced at some point. The exterior of the car has been repainted at some point in the past. Although the pictures make the car look very nice (and it really does!) there are few areas where the paint has chipped and one area where the newer paint has flaked off. There is VERY MINIMAL rust in this car. What rust is there is only surface and would certainly not require any metal replacement by any means. THIS IS A SOLID CAR! Floor pans are solid! The car appears to have had some minor body work near the tail lights and it does look like the bondo has began to crack. Very minor but it you were going to ever re-paint the car I would recommend fixing that at the same time. The body molding around the car have a few dings here and there but still look ok. The car itself is very straight and no dings to speak of. This is a great driver quality car! Keep and enjoy it as is or would be an easy and affordable restoration. The car is originally from Texas. In fact I have the original Texas TITLE from 1968. This title is not transferable. The car will be sold with a Bill of Sale only. Please call or text 706-325-4360 if you have questions. |

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads
Thu, 11 Jul 2013Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.
US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction
Wed, 07 Aug 2013For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
