The GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this head-turning 1968
Ford Fairlane! This eye-catching muscle car comes in a brilliant
Wimbledon White paint job complemented by a clean black interior.
At the center of the tidy engine bay is the iconic Ford 428 cubic
inch V8 motor mated to a crisp automatic transmission. The engine
was built by Sampson Race Engines out of Minnesota. Internals
include, custom Carrillo 10.9:1 pistons, Morell/Erson lifters,
Person camshaft, and much more. The engine was dynoed at 527hp and
is nicely dressed with Edelbrock bling as well. This vehicle comes
to us from a private automotive collection and as such was always
properly maintained and stored. So, if you're in the market for a
stylish classic with a ton of road presence and even more smiles to
the gallon, this Fairlane is for you! Please call or email us today
for more information.
A redesign was introduced for the 1968 model year. The wheelbase
remained at 116 in, but it grew in other dimensions. They were
about four inches longer and 200 lb heavier than the cars they
replaced. A fastback Sportsroof model was introduced in the
Fairlane 500 series, as well as a more luxurious Torino model at
the top of the intermediate range, contributing 172,083 of the
Fairlane's 371,787 units sold that year. The base engine was the
200 cu in (3.3 L) I6, with several optional V8s. Early production
1968 base V8 Fairlanes were equipped with the two-barrel 289 cu in,
while later units came with the 302 cu in. The GTs were part of the
Torino range, with the 302 cu in V8 standard, with optional engines
being the 390 CID V8 in two- and four-barrel versions. The 390
four-barrel was supplanted mid-year as the top performance engine
by the 428 cu in Cobra Jet, developing 335 bhp.
