1963 Ford Fairlane for sale. This car is in awesome condition. I purchased it a year ago from an older guy who took very good care of this car. I'll do my best to describe it.
Paint is in great condition. Painted a year ago and it shines nicely. The car was never taken back to be properly buffed. When it gets buffed, it is going to shine like glass. The gold paint has some metal flake in it. It looks really nice. The chrome is in really good shape. It does have some very, very light pitting that can easily be cleaned off. All the moldings and emblems are in good shape. Bumpers are in good shape. All doors open and shut perfectly and are aligned very well. Radio and Antenna work(AM only). All lights, wipers, and heat work. It has the original V8 - 260 Short Block engine. Engine was refreshed two years ago. 3 speed transmission. It has dual exhaust (Flow Masters). Sounds very aggressive for a small engine. I purchased an extra grille and light bezels that I will include with the car. Interior dome light works but the plastic dome is cracked. $15 on Ebay. Headliner and seats are in mint condition. Dash is mint, no cracks. Rear deck is mint. Door panels are mint. All windows are manual and work perfectly. Engine compartment is really nice. Car has no visible rust other than the light, and I mean very light surface rust and pitting on the chrome. Car has (I believe) 14" wheels and whitewall tires. It also has fender skirts.
I love this car but I cant really keep it. I have an 83 Cutlass and I am about to purchase a 63 Impala. Don't have the space. Cutlass is completely custom so this one must go. Car is in great shape for a 50 year old car! If it does not sell, I will place a set of 20" rims on it and drop a 302 High Output engine in it. Then i will play with it for a while.
Don't let this piece of American history pass you by!

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
How and why Ford is rolling out Vignale in Europe
Wed, 09 Oct 2013
We know that Ford is positioning the new, upscale Vignale brand in Europe to fill a niche market of customers who want a bit more luxury, a lot more service and the same reliability and dependability that a non-Vignale Ford offers. But so far, we've been in the dark regarding how the Blue Oval will sell Vignale vehicles, how many of them will be created, and what the new sub-brand has in store for the future.
Gaetano Thorel, Ford's European marketing head, recently was interviewed by Automotive News and shared details about Ford Vignale. Thorel says, "The Vignale trim line will be priced like an ST model but attract a completely different type of customer." Specifically, he says it will attract customers in the upper 15 percent of the price band who don't want a performance-oriented ST model. He adds that Vignale cars will be about 10 percent more expensive than Titanium-trim cars. About 500 of Ford's European dealers will sell Vignale Fords, Thorel says, "in areas that make sense." The automaker expects 10 percent of its European sales to be Vignale cars, which equates to about 5 percent of its global sales. When asked if there are any other Vignale models planned beyond the Mondeo, Thorel said, "There is nothing written in stone yet."
Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks
Mon, 21 Apr 2014The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.
