1960 Ford Fairlane 500 Sedan "Mayberry Sheriff Squad Car" - 292ci V8 - 3 Spd - Factory A/C - - Vintage Police Equipment - Selling With NO RESERVE!!! Mayberry Black and White with Blue Interior Totally Rust Free Southern Car! *This is a true NO RESERVE auction and this car will have a new owner in 7 DAYS!* Here is a beautiful 1960 Ford Fairlane 500 in great condition inside and out. This car has lived its life in the southern states of Oklahoma and Arkansas as far as I know. It has been inspected front to back and is totally rust free and a very straight car. It started out as a very original good condition Fairlane sedan before being given the "Mayberry Treatment." The car has just a bit over 100,000 original miles but has been very well cared for over the years and it shows. This car get more looks and thumbs up than any car I have ever owned, and Barney Fife would be pleased to go on patrol in this vintage ford. 1960 was the first year of the "Andy Griffith Show," and a Fairlane just like this can be seen in several of the original episodes. Don't miss your chance to own this very neat and unique piece of television history......BID NOW! -292ci V8 Engine -3-Speed Transmission -Working AM Radio -Ice Cold Air Conditioning -Motorola MoTrac Period Correct Police Radio -Rotating Red Gumball Light -Floor Operated Siren -Original Dogdish Hubcaps -New 14" Radial Tires The exterior on the car is absolutely stunning. The car was originally a white car so the door jambs are all original and in great condition. The exterior was completely repainted with black and white single stage paint and look very good. The body is very straight with no filler and no evidence of accidents. All chrome and trim is original and in good pit-free condition and with the exception of some dings and scuffs here and there shows very well. All glass is in good condition and is crack free. The original 14" steel wheels and hubcaps are in good shape and wrapped in new radial tires, as well as a matching 5th in the trunk. The squad car theme is carried on to the correct Mayberry door decals and an authentic whip antenna. Don't forget about the Red rotating gumball light and ear piercing siren! The interior is very original and in nice condition. The original cloth seats were covered with police-duty vinyl and new carpet was installed as well as a new headliner. The painted metal dash and all door panels are beautiful. The AM radio works great and still sounds very good. All gauges and lights work correctly. The A/C blows ice cold and the system was recently serviced. The trunk is also very nice condition with a original mat and seal. The spare as well as all jacking equipment and tools are in place. Mechanically, this Ford runs GREAT! This car features the 292ci V8, which really moves this Cruiser. As I said before this car has been maintained religiously by the previous owner. Under the hood is very clean and detailed and just had a full repaint and professional detail undertaken and looks very good. At that time new plugs, rotor, cap, wires, and gaskets were also installed. All new coolant hoses, belts, and fluids were installed. The brake system was also gone through with a full brake bleed, new master cylinder, and all pads and rotors were installed. Receipts will accompany the car for all work performed. The car tracks straight and rides just like a Fairlane should! The car includes two sets of original keys. The paperwork which comes with this car is another exceptional bonus. Also included are original manual, dealer only Ford Police car brochure for 1960, and a collage of Barney Fife, signed by Don Knotts! All in all, this is one very nice Fairlane. A 1963 Galaxie "Mayberry Special" did $110,000 at Barrett-Jackson a few years ago, and in my opinion is not nearly as cool looking as a 1960 model. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner. This car is the kind of condition you can enjoy everyday or save it as an investment because with the kind of condition it is and its classic bodylines, it is now and will forever be a classic.
