This is a very cool little Ford 67 Fairlane 500
Sedan. It has been in our family for 21 years. We purchased the car in 1993 out
of an estate sale near Dodge City, KS where it had been parked in a garage for
12 years. Yes, it can snow in Kansas too.
The car has only seen the late spring, summer, and
early fall sun since we have owned it and always garaged or stored inside. I put her up on
jack stands 15 years ago thinking my son would want her at some point. Well,
there I go thinking again... Last year it was moved to a new location and was garaged. I changed the oil and with some minor brake bleeding and
fresh fuel it fired right up and drove around the block.
To date since last summer the gas tank has been flushed. New Master
Brake Cylinder and new Rear Wheel Cylinders and New Battery have been installed.
New in the box front wheel cylinders, new in the box distributer cap go with the car. All OEM type parts.
The car has had one repaint about 20 years ago, now
some rust is showing in the left rear quarter in front of the tire, and the right
front behind the tire. The driver’s side floors seem pretty solid. The
passenger side front floor is rusted out at the firewall, but from there back is
pretty solid. Absolutely
nothing serious. The shock towers, trunk drop offs,
trunk pan, rocker panels, frame rails, rear quarter wheel lips , and all other
vital areas seem very solid and intact. The paint is dead, faded with chips, peeling, and old faded finish. Panels have some nicks, dings, scrapes, and dents.
The windshield has a clip, rest of the glass is
good. The interior is excellent and complete. The dealer installed seat covers have been removed from the front, and the still remain on rear seat. AM Radio works. Extra rims and tires are in the Trunk.
The car shifts great and the engine runs very well.
Clean Title.
Kindly do not bid unless you intend to complete your obligation as this is a binding contract as intended by eBay. Immediate non-refundable $500.00
deposit due via Paypal at end of auction (burned with a no show last fall, cost
me money, storage, and time). Balance due in cash when car is picked up. Car

2015 Ford Mustang renders reveal look of the real thing
Tue, 15 Oct 2013This is, according to the pony-car obsessed kids over at Mustang6G.com, the closest, most accurate rendering of the new, 2015 Ford Mustang to date. Artis Chazcron used a combination of Ford CAD images and information from assorted spy shots to assemble a fairly handsome car, albeit one that conforms to the tired cliché of being more evolutionary than revolutionary.
Now, it's very important to note that these are still speculative renders, and that they only represent the base car - that could explain the lack of the Mustang's vestigial side scoops, along with other, newer styling cues that Mustang6G seems to think will arrive on production models. Those items include a new, double-bubble roof, although the Mustang aficionados claim that even if it were present, it'd barely be visible from these angles.
The front end is pretty spot on, compared to what we've seen from earlier spy shots, while the tail, with its interesting light design is something new. The louvered taillights look quite different from the current version, obviously, though Mustang has gone the whimsical route with taillights before. Also, note the new rear diffuser uses an integrated reverse light and rear foglight, the latter of which is required for sale in Europe.
Ken Block ain't got a care about ruining his wheels
Tue, 22 Jan 2013During a drifting session at Irwindale Speedway in California, Ken Block made a boo-boo that would send a number of drivers immediately back to the infield. But there's an answer to "What do you do when you bash the wall while drifting and your wheel explodes?" and there's completely different answer when the question begins with the phrase, "When you're Ken Block..."
Instead of us telling you how Block handled the calamity in his Ford Fiesta competition car, you can watch it happen in the video below. You can probably also guess what it is - but it's more fun to watch.
Lexus gets top brand marks from Consumer Reports; Ford, Jeep hit hard
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its 2014 Car Brand Report Cards, with Lexus again reigning at the top and doing so with the same industry-topping score of 79 that it registered in last year's Report Cards. This year, the institute credited its lineup for being "usually quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient," noting it's the only brand on the list "to achieve an excellent average overall reliability score." The Car Brand Report Cars list is meant to rank the best all-around vehicles based on CR testing and reliability results tallied by subscribers it surveyed. Each brand included must have sufficient test and reliability data for at least three models, a standard which left out 11 marques including Fiat, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche.
This 2014 Brand Report Cars edition is the first of a new format in which sub-brands have been broken out from their parent brands, with Acura using this year to move up the leaderboard into second place with a score of 75 for its "reliable, well-finished and somewhat sporty models." The top three was rounded out by Audi, climbing from eighth to third by scoring a 74 for "well-crafted interiors, nice handling and good gas mileage." Audi scored highest in the road-test portion, its improved reliability aiding its rise. The top nine was completed by Subaru, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz.
Ford and Jeep weighed in at the other end of the rankings, Jeep taking the lowest overall score in the road tests and hampered by "a mix of spotty reliability." Ford was sunk by reliability issues with its MyFord Touch infotainment system which consumers found troublesome enough to negate its cars earning "solid test scores" for being "very nice to drive." Perhaps the rumored switch from Microsoft to Blackberry's QNX for the next generation SYNC will help them out. Cadillac's score also took a hit for infotainment reasons after it was the leading US brand last year, the CUE system in the XTS dragging Cadillac to the bottom of all General Motors brands.
