Vehicle Description
Ford's famous Fairlane is a staple of the classic car market, known
as the quintessential mid-size muscle cruiser. This is one example
that lives up to that reputation, a stellar 1967 Ford Fairlane 500
XL with big-block power that's ready to hit the road at the turn of
a key. Showing only 76,269 believed-to-be original miles on the
odometer, this '67 Fairlane has plenty of life left in it! Powered
by a correct 390 C.I. Ford "big-block" V8 breathing through a
4-barrel carburetor, this '67 Fairlane is one powerful highway
bomber. Torque is put to the pavement through a smooth-shifting
3-speed automatic transmission, allowing this Fairlane to drive
down the road like a dream. The exterior's "Bright Red" paint looks
fantastic laid out over this Fairlane's curvy laser-straight
bodylines, gleaming in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant
shine. It also compliments this Fairlane's shiny chrome brightwork
excellently! Additionally, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs on
this '67 Ford are all rock-solid and in great shape! Opening the
twin doors reveals an absolutely stunning two-tone "Red" and
"Parchment White" interior, complete with 500XL-exclusive comfy
deluxe-patterned bucket seats as well as a full center console for
added convenience. This '67 Fairlane features a litany of
performance as well as functional options, including power
steering, power brakes, 4-wheel disc brakes, MSD ignition, an MSD
distributor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a driver's-side chrome
mirror, the factory gauges and clock, an original AM pushbutton
radio, a heater + defroster, vent windows, and a mean-sounding new
dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sweet set of 15" chrome
Magnum 500 wheels over Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 RWL tires for a
period-correct appearance that makes sure that this Fairlane looks
like a true street machine. With that combination of a 390 V8, new
dual exhausts, and power 4-wheel disc brakes, this '67 Fairlane
runs and drives just beautifully and sounds great doing so. The
very definiton of "Muscle Cruiser", this '67 Fairlane isn't going
to be on the showroom floor long, so don't let it pass you by! We'd
love to see you behind the wheel when it goes.
