Offered up for sale is my 1957 Ford fairlane 500 2 door project car. I pulled this car out of a warehouse where it had been sitting for about 6 years. The previous owner had intentions of restoring the car but lost interest over time and it just sat. This is a good car to put some time and money into you can make it real sharp with a little work. The previous owner tells me the engine is a 390 FE from a mid 60's thunderbird I have never checked the numbers to confirm that. he also told me the trans was recently rebuilt before he parked it and it looks like it from the outside. After I purchased it I soaked the engine cylinders with marvel for about two weeks before checking to see if the motor was free which it was. I then put on a new carb, complete distributor, battery, starter solenoid, voltage regulator, fuel pump and coil. The wiring under the hood was in sad shape so I constructed my own harness just to get into run and removed the ignition switch from the dash so I can start it from the fender. I also have it running from a gas can I am sure the tank should be replaced or boiled out. I got the car running again and it runs pretty good. It does get a lifter tick from time to time but that is probably from sitting and needs to pump up. I have only ran it for a few minutes never attemted to drive it because of the brakes. I removed the master cylinder and booster because the pedal was frozen soild from sitting. I have done nothing else to the brakes. I have four new wheel cylinders and new front hoses that will come with the car but you will need to get a master for it. You can purchase one from speedway automotive with the power booster for about $150.00 The body looks decent it is not a barret jackson show car paint job but more of a driver quality job. the body seems real solid the floors look good as well from what i can see from underneath. It did have some rocker panel work and I am sure it has some bondo. The frame looks good as well from what I can see on the ground. I do have the rear quarter panel trim that is not on the car and it will come with it. I do have a front bumper that will come with the car but I do not have the rear, you can get one from bumper boyz the bumper I have will need rechroming. I also have aquired the missing interior window trim you will see in the trunk photo which comes with the car. The interior has had the seats redone, new door panels, rug and headliner the missing door handles are in the glove box. The car has a factory town and country radio still in the dash as well. This was an original spotlight equipeed car so it still has the hole in the dash but I do not have the spotlight for it. This is a great project car for someone with mechanical ability it is a real solid starting point. I would much rather start with something like this that some rustbucket pulled out of the woods. Someone is going to get a heck of a deal here and with some money and time could have a $15000 car easily. But like I said earlier this is not a frame off barret jackson restoration it is an unfinished attempt of a enthusiast resto. This must have been a sharp car when new if you decode the vin tag it was a woodsmoke grey with grey interior powered by a 245 hp 4 bbl 312 y-block. I do have a clear NC title for this car in my name I am not a dealer, do not offer financing, am not interested in any trades. The only reason I am selling this car is I need the space not the money, I just purchased a 55 Chevy Gasser that is sitting at a freids house until this car sells. If it does not sell I will just stick it in a storage unit but I would hate to do that. It has sat for long enough I would rather it got finished and back on the road. Please remember with the transportation for the car it is not drivable it will need to be winched onto whatever is picking it up. Please be sure to read my terms and conditions below and ask any questions BEFORE BIDDING I thank you for looking at my auction and may you have a blessed day.

Ford's Farley apologizes for saying Blue Oval tracks customers with GPS

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Ford marketing head honcho Jim Farley made waves at CES this week by telling show attendees, "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it." according to a report by Business Insider. Farley continued by saying, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone."
Farley has since amended his statement, saying that Ford dose not, in fact, track its customers in their cars "without their approval or consent."
Apparently carried away with a hypothetical notion, Farley was attempting to describe how Ford might be able to employee aggregated user data for things like accurate traffic reporting and pattern spotting. A Ford spokesperson confirmed with Business Insider that its GPS units are not sharing the whereabouts of drivers, though there are a few on-board services that might do so. After opting in to the services (and presumably being made aware of any/all tracking and data collection), Ford's Sync Services Directions and Crew Chief software do, in fact, allow data collection as a means of improving both systems. Farley added that the opt-in data is not shared, even when being tracked.

Ford reveals new Galaxy van for Europe [w/video]

Mon, Apr 6 2015

Here in its home market, Ford may be focusing more on crossovers, but overseas, minivans are still playing a crucial roll for global automakers. So while the Aerostar, Windstar and Freestar may have given way to the Flex and Edge, over in Europe, the Blue Oval automaker has revealed the all-new fourth-generation Galaxy. Following up on the MPV initially launched in 1995, replaced in 2000 and again in 2006, the new Galaxy features updated styling and equipment to position itself as the luxury counterpart to the sportier S-Max that just relaunched last year. Behind the Aston-style grille that's been finding its way onto just about every new passenger car Ford makes is a range of updated engine options, including two EcoBoost gasoline engines (a 1.5-liter unit with 158 horsepower or a 2.0 with 237) and a 2.0-liter turbo diesel available in states of tune ranging from 118 hp all the way up to 207. The flexible seven-seat cabin features a flat load floor, seats that stow and even deploy at the push of a button and an available full-length retractable panoramic sunroof. The new integral link rear suspension promises a smooth ride, with an available self-leveling feature just one of the many convenience and safety systems integrated into Ford's new European family hauler – the full extent of which you can read in the press release below. On your way down, you may want to check out the stunt which Ford staged with illusionist Darcy Oake to launch the new Galaxy. This content is hosted by a third party.
