1957 Ford Fairlane Nascar Convertible Series Tribute To Fireball Roberts. Wow! on 2040-cars
Wilmington, North Carolina, United States
|
Guess who is going into The NASCAR Haul Of Fame? Fireball Roberts is going into the NASCAR Hall Of Fame this January. Here is a car built to honor his memory and success in the sport.
This is not a race car but it was "purpose built" to look as close as possible like the ones used on the track and the beaches of Daytona. It houses a period correct 312 Y Block motor and a 3 speed column shifter transmission. The car runs and drives great and I have spent loads of money trying to continually improve the driving experience of this vehicle. We also completed the 2013 Great Race with the car and drew huge crowds at every stop along the way.
If you want a traditional classic car, this one is not for you. If you want a true collector car that represents NASCAR history then nothing does it better than this one.
The car is very solid with no know rust or damage. We recently installed dyna-mat and installed the correct badging for the car. We have gone through the suspension, drivetrain, electrical, brake system etc. IT IS NOT PERFECT but it is super cool and can be driven anywhere.
Take a look at all the pictures, do all your homework and understand the true value. After all that is completed you can call me with questions at 910-262-6112 or shoot me an email. This is not a crisis sale so please don't make silly offers.
We reserve the right to sale the car and end the auction process. We will help with any shipping at the buyers expence.

Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]
Sun, 08 Dec 2013The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Ford recalling nearly 700k Escape CUVs, C-Max hybrids over two separate safety issues
Fri, 09 May 2014Poor Escape. Ever since its launch in 2012, Ford's small CUV has been the subject of many, many, many recalls. And today, The Detroit News is reporting that Ford is adding two more recalls to the 2013-14 model year Escape's permanent record, one of them also involves the C-Max hybrid hatchback.
The first recall, covering 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles, is due to a software glitch that could cause the airbags - specifically, the safety canopy - to not deploy in a timely fashion during rollover crashes. According to the News, Ford says no crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this problem.
The second recall, covering 692,700 Escapes, is related to the door handles. The News reports that the exterior door handles could open while the vehicle is in motion, and could also fail to latch properly. Once again, no crashes or injuries have occurred because of this. The National Highway Safety Traffic Administration has not issued an official notice on either recall as of this writing.
