Vehicle Description
Tons of originality with some great performance and comfort
upgrades are reasons why your brain wants this 1966 Ford Fairlane.
Which is a good thing, because the shining bright red on this
hardtop body already had your heart sold on this coupe.
You're looking at the face of Ford racing in the '60, and this
coupe carries it perfectly. The luster in this red really pops in
the sunlight, along with the bright wide bumpers and the shining
grille as long as the horizon. It all helps to highlight how
straight the body panels are and how crisp the creases remain
today. You especially notice it on the full sweeping side trim on
this Fairlane 500 model that appears as an unbroken line. Plus, the
289 callouts on the fenders and period-correct Ford GT wheels makes
for nice intimidation to go with the style. In total, this is
really the gentleman's hot rod that could pound the strip on
Sunday, and commute in rush-hour traffic Monday morning.
The Fairlane 500's upscale mission is particularly evident inside
with a handsome pattern on the bucket seats, coordinating door
cards, and lots of chrome on the instrument panel. There's plenty
of room in the back seat, and the spacious trunk will carry enough
luggage to go coast-to-coast. And that's exactly how you should
view this coupe, because it is useful for all occasions. The
interior was redone about five years ago, and at the time not only
was the upholstery updated, but also some great features were added
that everyone will love. This includes an AM/FM/cassette stereo,
and cold blowing air conditioning. But even when you're all alone,
this is a great vintage cruiser. You'll grab the three-spoke wood
and chrome steering wheel, gaze at the extra-wide speedometer, and
twist the key to hear a serious roar as the dual exhaust announces
the enhanced V8 to the world.
The 289 cubic-inch V8 is believed to be the original powerplant to
this coupe. But one glance in the bay, and you can see that there
have been some nice upgrades to it. The polished valve covers, air
cleaner, pulleys, brackets and so much more are all joined by the
tidy wires and hoses for a stellar total presentation. And when you
look beyond the style, there's the serious performance substance of
a new cam .532 lift, roller rockers, bored .030 over kit (likely),
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Holley Contender intake, and long
tube headers. More than just a big power motor, the whole package
is designed to be a great cruising classic. That's why you have
features like a stout three-speed automatic transmission, a rebuilt
independent front suspension, and an aluminum radiator that keeps
this Fairlane cool even in traffic with the A/C running.
Complete with all the right materials, including receipts,
maintenance records, owner's manual, and a full-sized spare on the
GT wheel, this is everything you love about a classic American
coupe in a quality package. And it's available today to the first
one who grabs this deal. Call today!!
