For Sale: 1965 Ford Fairlane in Lavergne, Tennessee

Here's an outstanding example of mid-'60s rolling automotive Americana. You may see a station wagon still on the road from time to time, but chances are slim that it's looking as good and running as strong as this 1965 Ford Fairlane Ranch Wagon. It was refreshed in its original Wimbledon White not long ago, and its brightwork is in great shape. Take a lap around and you'll see a consistent shine, with no glaring dings or dents to detract from its curb appeal. Despite more than 60 years of service, this wagon features nice, even panel gaps all the way around, and a quartet of fresh headlights adds even more to this vintage Ford's already considerable vitality.

Inside, two rows of bench seating provide plenty of room for passengers and feature gray vinyl upholstery that still looks well-fitted and clean. This interior also has a level of functionality you'll appreciate if you intend on frequent driving. The heater, emergency brake, and lights all work as intended, and the windows throughout the cabin roll up and down without issue. There are also a few well-chosen add-ons that create a nice, custom appearance, including a compact center console that blends well with its surroundings and houses an AM/FM stereo with a USB port and Bluetooth connectivity, as well as a trio of Sunpro gauges that sit just above it. The added blue LED lighting serves as an additional reminder that this interior has received some aftermarket attention.

Raise the hood and you'll see a nice, clean engine bay. At its center, a 289 cubic-inch V8 stands by, ready to roll. It pairs with a 3-speed C4 automatic transmission to make up a period-correct drivetrain. Both the Ford 289 and C4 are known to be reliable, and fittingly, they're in good form here, providing prompt starts, smooth acceleration, and slip-free shifting. With a rebuilt suspension up front and air shocks added to the mix in back, this Ford classic offers a smooth ride, while power disc brakes at both ends provide reliable, fade-resistant stops as this rarely seen ride cruises on a set of 15" Ion alloy wheels
