Rockmart, Georgia, United States
Engine:V8
Drive Type: Automatic
Make: Ford
Mileage: 21,923
Model: Fairlane
Warranty: Vehicle does NOT have an existing warranty
Trim: Custom 300
This is an unmolested 1957 Ford Custom 300, it is currently not road worthy but it is not far from it. The title and the odometer show 21,923 miles, the car has never been repainted and has very little rust, the frame, trunk pan, deck lid, hood, and floor pans are all in very good shape, there are a few small patchable holes in the front pans, but they will not need replacing, car had a rubber mat from the factory as opposed to carpet. I purchased this car about a year ago from a man who decided to strip it for his ranchero, I felt it was too good of a car to strip and luckily got it before he got anything major off of it, parts he stripped were as follows, headlight switch, horn ring, driver side window trim, sunvisors, master cylinder, headlight trim rings. This is a very good starting point and an easy restoration for someone just wanting a 1950's cruiser. It has an open clear title. I have a replacement driver side fender in good shape. All glass is good, some small bubbles but nothing major in the glass. I have had the car running and I know it moved on its on power, but I have not had it on the road. I have just installed plug wires, points, condenser and a rotary button, rust spot on the low driver fender, passenger rocker has a couple of small rust places, passenger quarter looks like it swiped something, doesnt need replaced it is very fixable, one small place on the driver lower rear quarter, of course, around the headlight area is a little rust etc, if you want to know anything specific, feel free to ask, it is not currently running but a good weekends worth of work could put it on the road again, the tires are junk.
I am trying to get down to one classic, I also have a 1937 pontiac project car, a 1960 Borgward Isabella coupe, and a 1968 vw beetle for sale as well.
Full payment is due on this car within 5 days of auction end, buyer pays all shipping cost. The mirrors in the pictures are no longer on the car also, will post more pics of the car asap

Watch Piquet and Mansell bend some sheetmetal in Ford Fusion GP
Tue, 12 Feb 2013As we told you about before, there were four episodes planned for the Ford Fusion GP campaign in Brazil, and the whole series has now run its course. The Ford ads pit Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet against English F1 pilot Nigel Mansell driving the new Fusion, the two coming together again after their partnership at the Williams F1 team ended in a miserable state more than 20 years ago.
They're lined up for you below, in reverse chronological order. You should watch number three first, though, as it adds a bit more spice to the NASCAR action in the fourth.
'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]
Wed, 05 Jun 2013For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.
