Up for auction is this rare survivor. It is a 1968 FORD FAIRLANE with 57,285 miles. The paint, engine, interior, roof liner, trunk interior..are all original.The interior is original white vinyl as is the white cloth roof liner. The liner needs a little attention but still looks good. The car does have a new green vinyl top in its original color. This car from the history i know, was purchased new in Chicago, Il.. The original owner used it for a short time before moving to Florida. It spent the last 40+ years in Florida mostly in storage after the owner passed away. I have tried to show via the pics as much to the actual car.The car has new tires, new dual exhaust, and new brakes. The car runs and drives great and needs nothing. Hubcaps are original as well. Inside the glove is a brand new Jensen radio/cassette player. The original am radio is still in its original place. Some minor rust can be seen but it is surface rust in most cases. The body and frame is remarkably clean and solid. As a survivor this car is ready to go. The engine and compartment are original and without rust as is the interior of the trunk. Paint is thin in some areas due to its age and i am sure waxing it. The worst rust is shown it the pic of the passenger right wheel well area. I would be happy to send additional pics, answer your questions, or discuss issues you might have. This car is now in Romeo, Michigan and can be seen at that location. Thanks for viewing.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]
Thu, 26 Jun 2014With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.
Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.
