Concourse, rotisserie restored to factory specs using many NOS
parts. Real GTA, factory S-code performance 390 and stunning signal
flare red! From a respected Ford collector down south.
EXTERIOR: The exterior of this car is exceptional! The shiny signal
flare red paint was expertly applied smoothly and neatly. It was
then polished to a glass-like finish that is highly reflective.
Black stripes down each side with GTA emblems let's everyone know
how special this is. A body as straight as this usually starts with
all original sheet metal, and that's exactly what this car has.
Absolutely rust free with no paint imperfections noted. The
alignment of the doors and all the panels is very nice. They all
open and close with ease literally like a new car. All the glass
has been replaced. Most of the trim pieces appear to be like new.
The bumpers have been rechromed and have a very shiny finish. The
original GT grill appears to be restored. Of course, you got to
love the original hood with chrome inserts and 390 call outs
included. It has a new black power convertible top with its
matching boot that's in great condition. It has factory style 14
inch chrome rims with new reproduction Silvertown redline tires
that really give this Fairlane a factory correct original
appearance. What an absolutely impressive vehicle!
INTERIOR: This interior is literally like a new vehicle! It appears
that a mixture of mostly new parts and a few restored factory parts
were used. Let's start with the front bucket seats. They have been
reupholstered with factory correct vinyl. They are firm and
supportive and feel fantastic. The chrome trim attached to the
seats appears original with a few insignificant scratches. The rear
bench has been reupholstered and all the stitching matches the
front. The sun visors seem to be original and in remarkable
condition. The dash pad has been replaced. The dashboard and gauge
cluster literally look like new besides a couple knobs that look
original and in great condition. The glove box liner has been
replaced. The center console and shifter look like new. The
steering column and wheel look to be restored with great detail.
The kick panels and carpeting has been replaced. All the door
panels including the window cranks and door handles look like new
and include inserts that match the interior. You can cruise all day
in comfort with this completely restored, nearly immaculate
interior!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Wow! Open the hood of this beauty and instantly
feel like you're transported back to 1966. The power plant is an
S-code 390-335 hp restored to factory specifications. It is topped
with correct chrome air cleaner and valve covers. The ignition
system, alternator, brake master cylinder, and radiator all appear
to be replaced or rebuilt. All the hoses and wires have the correct
markings and clamps and are routed the way the factory did. It has
a reproduction Ford windshield washer reservoir bag and even the
squirters are hooked up. The fender wells and firewall are all
painted the correct factory satin black. The underside of the hood
is painted with the same finish and shine as the body. This show
quality engine compartment performs as good as it looks!
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: This trunk compartment is absolutely done the
right way! The underside of the trunk lid and trunk pan metal is
all in pristine condition and painted with the same red paint as
the body. It has a nice smooth finish and is shiny. There are
reproduction stickers under the lid. The hardware and even latch
assembly look new. The weatherstrip has been replaced. It has a
reproduction rubber mat with a shining new gas tank and filler neck
visible underneath. There is a 5th matching reproduction Silvertown
red line spare tire mounted to a GT rim. That is a nice addition
making this trunk compartment complete.
UNDERSIDE: A meticulous concourse restoration has been completed on
this car including underneath. It was flipped on a rotisserie. It
has all the factory style assembly line marks on the underbody. All
the steering components have been rebuilt or replaced and look like
new. The suspension has also been completely rebuilt and are free
of rust and corrosion. It has a front sway bar. The rear leaf
springs have been replaced or rebuilt and are painted satin black.
All the hardware looks fresh as well as the rear shocks. The entire
brake system has been rebuilt with the drums at all four corners.
Even the lines were replaced. The e-brake is hooked up. The full
dual exhaust system has been replaced and routed in a factory
fashion. It even has NOS FOMOCO mufflers! The fuel tank has been
replaced as well as the fuel lines. Looking up at the motor It
appears fresh and rebuilt and is painted neatly in Ford blue. The
automatic C6 transmission looks rebuilt and clean with no visible
leaks as well. The rear end has 3.25:1 gearing and looks like new.
The floors are absolutely rust free and have been painted in the
factory correct red oxide primer. They're very solid and look great
with factory style overspray. This underbody has been restored to
like new condition with attention to finite details!

rear view mirror, and replaced the front left high beam. This car
is now ready to cruise with confidence!
This vehicle was painstakingly rotisserie restored with a look and
feel that stands out from the rest! It really has a refined
appearance and ride quality. That's why I consider it to be a
"businessman's or executive" muscle car. It has a touch of
sophistication that is paired with a big engine producing big power
that provides an exhilarating ride. This was Ford's answer to the
1966 Chevelle, I see a lot more Chevelles than Fairlane GTs! If you
were wondering, the A means automatic in GTA.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
