1963 Fairlane Project Car on 2040-cars
Church Hill, Tennessee, United States

I saved this little diamond from a mad scientist gear head sorta guy! This little car was "restored" when it was still a 6 banger 3 spd papaw car, then it passed into the hands of a "fabricator" who cut the entire stock front suspension out of it and attempted to install a fox body mustang front, rear, and drive train in it. It sat unfinished for several years until it was swapped to a local junkyard for an engine. Then a fellow motorhead rescued it from the jaws of the crusher and made plans to slice and dice it. I talked him into letting me swap a fistful of dead kiteflyers for it.... and here we are! The front rails have been repaired with boxed tubing and is ready for an IFS. the rear still has the OEM leafs in place. When this lil car received its original facelift it got NEW bumpers (fr & rr) NEW weatherstripping, NEW paint, NEW windshield, NEW interior. All the cosmetics are good. it simply needs the giddy-up-go parts. Now I DO have a fresh 1970 460 w/dove heads, a T-5 tranny, Ladder bar kit and coilovers, and a set of American Racing Torque Thrust D's 17x9.5's and 17x6's with new z rated tires that is NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION! All of which can be PURCHASED POST AUCTION. Then all you need is a mustang II IFS and a 9"...... and of course some glue! Im selling this car as-is where-is. I fully expect the winning bidder to pick this up in East TN. I have equipment and the ability to load it onto your trailer without damaging the car. I have so many projects, Im a lifetime behind, thats the only reason Im letting it go. It would make a great pro touring or even a gasser if you must. I am more than willing to provide any information that will allow a bidder to make a well informed intelligent decision. Please ask any questions you might have. The winning bidder will be required to make a deposit of $1000.00 thru paypal @ the end of the auction with the balance due in cash or certified funds upon pick up. If you have a boatload of neg feedback you need to contact me before bidding. Thanks for viewing my auction and good luck! |

Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect
Tue, 05 Nov 2013The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.
2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
Ford talking unibody Ranger replacement
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Now here's some welcome news. Car and Driver reports Ford is seriously mulling a replacement for the recently deceased Ranger, but the successor to the compact pickup's throne may not look anything like what we've seen from the nameplate in the past.
While speaking at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Doug Scott, marketing manager for Ford Trucks, said there's still a market for a smaller pickup, but that buyers expect to see a larger differentiation between the smaller utility vehicles and their full size counterparts in price, capability and fuel economy.
According to Scott, that means a vehicle with a payload capacity of around 1,000 pounds paired with a towing capacity of 3,000 pounds and "a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption." But the biggest piece of that recipe is the price tag, and Scott says to keep the MSRP far enough away from the already cheap F-150, the answer could come in the form of a unibody design. Scott says target customers in this market don't care whether the truck has a traditional frame or not, so long as it's tough enough to do the job and has the capability they need.
