1956 Ford Fairlane

Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed

Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads. It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles. The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo. The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch. The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe. Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator. There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding. Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should. This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!

The body & paint are in very good condition! The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago. The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up. There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE! The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition. The tires have about 300 miles on them.

The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition.

The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.

Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb. The four speed works great.

The engine runs very strong and fast. No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator.

Steering is straight and solid.

The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back.

All fluids have been changed and are fresh.

In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor? Never! Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask.

This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time. Serious bidders only! I will require a non-refundable $5000 deposit within 72 hours of close of this add. Remaining funds MUST be paid by cash or bank wire transfer. I will however accept a cashiers check if I am with you at the bank when you receive it. The remaining funds will need to be paid in full within 7 days of close of auction.

Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer. I am not a dealer. Any taxes or registration fees are the responsibility of the buyer pursuant to their home state requirements. I have a clear title in my name. The vehicle is for sale locally so I have the right to end this auction at any time.

Galpin Ford GTR1 supercar debuts in Monterey

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Galpin Auto Sports has finally taken the wraps off the car we first previewed back in December, the Galpin Ford GTR1. A few weeks ago, we posted the first hints of just what the GTR1 would be capable of, with Galpin teasing that its 5.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 would produce in excess of 1000 horsepower, with a top speed of 225 miles per hour. Package all that in a coachbuilt body, and you have the recipe for one wicked supercar.
The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000.
Now, we have all the glorious details. Galpin is targeting a production run of six cars, but if interest is strong enough, will expand its initial quote to 24 vehicles. The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000. Opting for the aluminum bodywork could lower that, although it's not immediately clear by how much.

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.

Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.
