1966 Ford Fairlane 500 Xl Convertible 289 4-speed Barn Find Patina Tired Driver on 2040-cars
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States
|
This is a very cool little Ford 66 Fairlane 500 4-speed convertible. The car was parked 10 years ago and stored inside . We changed the oil and with some minor brake bleeding and fresh fuel it fired right up and drove around the building. We currently are running the engine from a 1 gallon jug because the tank needs flushed . The power top works great but the black canvas is torn and needs replaced . The car appears to have one repaint with some rust showing in the left rear quarter in front of the tire and front and rear drivers side floors are rusted out. The passenger floors seem pretty solid. The 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 and faded with chips and peeling and old faded finish. The interior is tired but very complete . The car shifts great and the engine runs very well . The car appears to have came as a AC car but compressor is gone from the engine. The 289 is a 2bbl engine with a 4-speed trans . I have a clean up to date title for the car and the car is located 15 minutes west of Oklahoma City in Mustang Oklahoma zip 73064.... serious buyers can call or text 405-473-3204 thanks

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
