Description You are looking at a modified 1966 Ford Fairlane 2 door post sedan, equipped with a 390 big block, 4 speed Top Loader transmission, front disc brakes and Currie 3.70 Tractionlok rear end. It was built well by a local owner who has decided to downsize. Below is a video collection of the automobile: This vehicle started life as a 6 cylinder 3 speed but was built well. It was owned by the same family since new until it was sold to the current owner who built the car. We have personally driven this vehicle and it is a fun car to drive. Please scroll down and enjoy the 350+ photos. If you cannot view all the photos, please click here. Mechanically, it runs and drives well. There is a bit of power steering pump whine as you can hear, and a few things we might finish such as the seat covers. However, the hard work is done and it runs and drives as you would expect with this 400+ HP powerhouse under the hood. It steers / turns stops better than we expected. The gauges appear to work as do the headlights and other bulbs. The car also stops and shifts well. The vehicle is surprisingly smooth and comfortable at 45-55 MPH as well. The redline tires and standard wheels with the dog dish hubcaps are a nice addition. Cosmetically, this is one of the nicer cosmetics we have encountered but not a show car. It would win a local show, but the paint is not a $5000 job. There is some surface rust in the trunk under the mat as shown. This appears to be from moisture but it does not appear to be through from what we could tell. This should be wire brushed and sealed. We were fairly happy when looking at the floorboards, shackles and other normal trouble spots as this is a pretty clean example. Also note that the exterior panels and color appear to be original but have been patched. There is some surface rust and filler was used on parts of the body. Please see the photos to have a better gauge of vehicle condition. It does look as good in person as it does in the photos. The car runs and drives extremely well for the age and was a pleasure to drive for the auction videos. We were impressed with the power and looks as we drove this car. These 1960's Fords are truly an American icon. Additional auction information: This vehicle is sold as-is.
