Vehicle Description
The Fairlane 500 Was The Intermediate Trim Level For 1966 And
Sported A Completely Fresh Look With Stacked Headlamps At The
Front.
The Fairlane was revised in 1966. The appearance was changed to
match the Full-size Ford, which had been restyled in the 1965 model
year. The front end featured vertically stacked dual headlights.
The XL, GT and GTA packages were introduced, as well as a
convertible to join the existing range of sedans, hardtops and
station wagons. The "K-code" 289 CID engine was dropped this year.
The GT featured a 390 CID FE V8 as standard, while the GTA also
included the newly introduced the SportShift Cruise-o-Matic
automatic transmission. The GT/GTA 390 CID engine developed 335 bhp
with higher compression, and had a four-barrel carburetor.
