Vehicle Description
This 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 is an attractive hardtop classic with
an A/C interior. And as you look through all the pictures, you're
also going to see the little extras that make it an impressive
classic.
The Fairlane occupied the intermediate size, but it was always out
to show off full-size substance. That's why it has a full-length
crease in the profile, like an upper-manager's finely pressed suit.
And not only do you have wraparound chrome bumpers, but also the
500-model means extras like the full-length rocker trim and a more
ornate grille. This is mixed with sporty elements like the kick-up
in the rear fenders and pilarless hardtop profile. Plus, it was
upgraded with Cragar-style alloys that are staggered 14/15 inches
front/rear for an extra hint of sporty stance. So the perfect color
for a car that intertwines sporty and sophisticated is burgundy.
After all, it mixes a stylish brown with a vivid red.
Inside is both classic and clean. In fact, the style is so stock,
you even have the factory AM radio on display. The seats have the
look of a newer investment, and they retain the classic low-back
style. So when you have all the windows down, nothing intrudes on
the clean profile. Another great reason to have all the windows
down on this coupe is the air conditioning is blowing cold with
modern R134a, so you get to stay comfortable even in the
summertime. The headliner, dash pad, and carpeting all continue the
car's fresh look, and so this really feels like a well-kept time
capsule.
The clean engine bay is a mixture of style and substance. After
all, you not only have a shining air topper and valve covers, but
also someone took the time to paint the block, intake, and pan to
match the car! The V8 is Ford's mighty 289 unit, and it has been
enhanced and with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, FoMoCo intake,
and shorty headers that add power while contributing to the rumble
of the glasspack dual exhaust. And there are nice supporting
components, like an aluminum radiator. It's a strong running total
setup, and it was made to be driven. The three-speed automatic
transmission, power brakes, and power steering make sure you can
show off both the sophisticated and sporty side of this Fairlane
quite easily.
Vintage distinction meets sporty upgrades, and it's all offered for
an obtainable price. Don't miss this classic Ford hardtop, call
