I listed this very car earlier this year, feeling confident I was ready to part with her- got a LOT of inquiries and offers but ended up changing my mind and promising myself to get it out on the road and really show it off....I started out great, a few nice long cruises, and my first car show- trophy winner! Really psyched, but then life caught up and it's been back under it's cover since mid June....It's time, and I'm ready to see her find new open roads- the local shop thinks I'm crazy to let it go.

Below is the original listing- Good Luck!

As much as I'd LOVE to keep her, I think it's time to let my gorgeous 1963 Ford Fairlane 500 go. I bought this mild custom completely restored, with visions of weekend cruises, showing it off at shows and generally driving it around proudly, but the reality is, 3 years later, it's seen maybe 100 road miles and the underside of a car cover in a private garage. I'm the 3rd owner I believe (owner before me bought it restored, and sold to me due to growing family. It's been in Maryland as far back as all owners recall.) It truly deserves more, so instead of paying to insure and store, it should go to someone that will take her out on sunny days, and proudly show her off like I did on those few rides.
Really- nothing mechanical wrong with it- I love this car- it was restored incredibly, and turns heads every time it's driven- awesome rumble, too....You'd be hard pressed to find one cleaner- with just enough potential to customize further on your own (I wanted to get the original stereo working again, and disc brakes for instance.) Receipts for all of previous owners work- they did all of it. Just under 77,000 miles (though no indication how many are on this newer 302 engine.)

Ford's last year with tail fins- Raven Black exterior with gold, cream interior (factory colors) and beautiful, Cragar SS wheels...It ALWAYS turns heads and gets compliments.

Plenty of great photos available, and will answer questions as best I can, for not having done the restoration....

Thanks for looking- good luck!

and the typical fine print....

Car is also for sale locally and I will end the auction if the right opportunity arises.

Ford F-450 claims best-in-class towing, company abandons practice of removing items to boost payload number

Tue, 02 Sep 2014

The ongoing heavy-duty truck battle between Ford and Ram is showing no signs of slowing down. The Blue Oval is trying to remove at least one point of contention between the two brands by testing its 2015 F-450 Super Duty using the Society of Automotive Engineers J2807 towing standard, which Ram also uses. In the new evaluation, the F-450 is rated at a max towing capacity of 31,200 pounds. That's an identical amount as under Ford's own, previous test.
"We leave no doubt with customers that the F-450 pickup truck has best-in-class towing of 31,200 pounds - whether tested using our own internal towing standards or SAE J2807," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president for Global Product Development, in the company's release.
At the same time, Ford is also changing how it calculates the F-450's payload. Instead of using its minimum curb weight as before, the brand is now using the truck's base curb weight. The revision lowers the pickup's rating to 5,300 pounds, compared to 5,450 pounds previously. The company said in its announcement that the reason for this is "aligning its payload rating practices with other manufacturers to make it easier for customers to compare vehicles." General Motors made a similar switch for its pickups in August.

2015 Ford Mustang leaked in Autoweek

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

We would have to imagine that Ford knew it couldn't keep its 2015 Mustang under wraps for too long, and with only days to go before the pony car's official unveiling, the dam seems to be cracking. SVTPerformance.com member Screamin 40th just posted some images taken of the sixth-gen Mustang prominently featured in and on the cover of the December 9 issue of Autoweek magazine.
These images show that recent renderings we saw weren't too far off. The face is just like what we saw in spy shots a few months back, but the rear of the car features some of its more striking cues. Starting with the pronounced haunches and hidden B-pillars, the rear view of the new Mustang might be its best with the ridged, three-bar taillights, a rear diffuser and the lack of a faux gas cap, which allows the galloping pony to be an even more prominent element against the black trim.
The images also reveal a small portion of the updated interior carrying over retro themes like the deep-dish steering wheel and dual-gauge instrument cluster, but it also adds some modern tech with a big infotainment displays and a clean center stack layout. No official word on powertrain or other specs, but while we can't make out most of the magazine's text, our eyes did catch mentions of an independent rear suspension and a 200-pound weight reduction.
