Vehicle Description
This 1967 Ford Fairlane Restomod is a stunning fusion of classic
American muscle and modern engineering, designed to turn heads and
deliver visceral performance with every turn of the key. Built on
Ford's beloved mid-size platform, it captures the timeless styling
of the late '60s with a thoroughly reimagined heart and soul.
Completed in 2023, this full restomod is more than a refresh-it's a
ground-up transformation that brings contemporary performance,
drivability, and craftsmanship to a vintage icon.
At its core is a professionally built 408 cubic inch stroker roller
motor, fed by a Holley Sniper EFI system for modern reliability and
throttle response. A Comp Magnum cam, aluminum heads, stainless
valves, bronze valve guides, and hardened seats ensure both power
and durability. Howards dual valve springs add confidence at high
RPMs, making this engine as robust as it is responsive. The sound,
the torque, the instant throttle-it's all there.
Backing the motor is a freshly built AOD automatic transmission,
equipped with a triple-disc torque converter and an arsenal of
upgraded internals. Highlights include an Alto Red Eagle wide
overdrive band, a 300M hardened input shaft, a high-capacity
four-plate intermediate clutch, a direct clutch pack with eight
frictions, and a heavy-duty reverse drum paired with an updated sun
shell. A high-capacity pump assembly rounds out the transmission
build, ensuring seamless shifts and long-term strength.
To handle the power and put it to the pavement, the Fairlane rides
on Viking coilovers with a tubbed and four-linked rear setup for
traction and control. Staggered wheels-17x5 up front and 15-inch
rears-are wrapped in Mickey Thompson drag radials, giving it an
aggressive stance and street-dominating grip. Stopping power comes
from four-wheel disc brakes, providing confident and consistent
braking performance.
Inside, the cabin has been custom-built to match the caliber of the
mechanicals. One-off bucket seats give the driver and passenger a
tailored feel, while Dakota Digital gauges offer modern precision
within a classic design aesthetic. Every detail has been
touched-nothing was overlooked.
This Fairlane isn't just a car-it's a deeply considered build,
executed with passion, precision, and a respect for its heritage.
It's for the enthusiast who appreciates the raw character of a
vintage muscle car, but demands the reliability and refinement of
modern components. Whether you're carving corners, cruising to a
show, or lighting up the pavement, this Fairlane Restomod delivers
a driving experience that's as memorable as its silhouette.
