For Sale: 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 in Greene, Iowa

The beauty of the Ford's Fairlane Fastbacks is irrefutable, with their wind-cheating design and ultra-sleek, flowing bodylines. This 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 represents the peak of both style and performance, wrapping up a 4-barreled V8 under the hood in conjunction with one of the best car designs the 1960s had to offer. Powered by a 302 C.I. V8 breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor, this '68 Fairlane makes for one fantastic muscle cruiser. Torque is put to the pavement through a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission allowing this car to do it all, from highway cruising to simple trips around town. Arguably one of the best designs of the '60s and only around for two model years from '68 to '69, this '68 Fairlane is the real deal. The exterior is gorgeously covered in the correct "Royal Maroon" paint, an older repaint that's got a couple chips and some minor imperfections in the clearcoat. However, that does nothing to detract from the fact that this Fairlane is still a spectacular-looking car, with gleaming chrome brightwork and those beautiful bodylines! In addition, the floors, frame, trunk, and jambs are all rock-solid and in fantastic shape! Opening the twin doors reveals a stunningly original interior, complete with comfy black vinyl bench seats that are in great condition and additional woodgrain trim for a dash of luxury flair! Options on this beautiful '68 Fairlane include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, a heater + defroster, a vintage-style AM/FM digital radio, a chrome driver's mirror, factory bullet-shaped gauges, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a gleaming set of 15" chrome American Racing wheels over B.F. Goodrich RWL tires for an aggressive look that's befitting of a true muscle cruiser. With that 302 under the hood and the 3-speed automatic backing it up, this '68 Fairlane runs and drives just wonderfully. With the breathtaking looks and muscle-cruiser capability that this Fairlane brings to the table, it's not going to be on the showroom floor for long, so don't let it pass you by! We'd love to see it in your driveway.
