Vehicle Description
This custom 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 is powered by a 427ci side-oiler
V8 engine paired with a 4-speed Toploader transmission and a
limited-slip differential. It is equipped with front disc brakes,
hood and trunklid pins, Lexan side and rear windows, a roll cage,
black leather seats, and fiberglass hood, bumpers and fenders. It
is finished in Corinthian White with blue stripes and rides on
15-inch Bassett wheels. This 2-door hardtop was built for the owner
by Holman-Moody in 2010 and is one of three examples produced, with
two built as race cars. This example was sent to Rhine Enterprise
in 2015 for additional modifications to the suspension, cooling
system and interior. Service there in March 2023 included
rebuilding the carburetor, adjusting the suspension and replacing
the spark plugs, coolant hoses, radiator, thermostat and throw-out
bearing. In the early 1960s, Holman-Moody built a Ford Fairlane 500
race car at the behest of NASCAR. In the late 2000s, Holman-Moody
received FIA approval to build continuation Fairlanes in the style
of the original test car. This Fairlane is now offered with
Holman-Moody sales paperwork, build and service records, literature
and a Florida title. Title reads not actual miles.
