1965 Ford Fairlane 500 4.7l 289 V8 4 Bbl Engine Rebuilt And Modified on 2040-cars
Poway, California, United States
Here for sale is a 1965 Ford Fairlane 500 2 door Hardtop. I bought this car in Arizona about 3 years ago and was going to restomod it. I have since moved on to other projects and no longer have time for this one. So that being said here is the scoop on this car. This car has a CLEAN title in my name. It is currently registered and insured until 02/08/15. It’s an Arizona car so hardly any rust. Rocker panels appear to be solid, roof lines also. Floor boards and trunk all appear solid. Car needs interior, body work, paint, transmission rebuild and currently doesn’t start. It appears that the ignition switch is bad. The engine turns over at the solenoid with a starter test button. So I am buying a switch and it will be included with the car if not already installed by the time someone buys this car. Also the missing trim pieces are included but are pretty rough and will need major repair. It’s missing the driver side door panel. The dash is in pretty good shape. Also installed a new radiator and gas tank.
The engine however is where I put my money. The short block was rebuilt with components from the Edelbrock 289 Top End Kit model #2027. Top End Engine Kit, Power Package, Intake, Cylinder Heads, Cam, Timing Chain, Head Bolts, Ford, 289, Kit. The kit can be looked up online to see what’s included but basically a mild camshaft, Edelbrock aluminum heads, and an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake manifold. Also installed an Edelbrock carb. About $2900 invested in the engine alone. The specs are listed below for the Top End kit. So I am still trying to get this car running but if anyone is ready to take the car as is, it’s up for grabs.

The Edelbrock Power Package concept is second to none. To make things easier in parts selection, Edelbrock has taken the guesswork out of top-end component selection by actually placing the power package components together in complete kits. These kits include almost everything you need to make serious horsepower.

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with
Mon, 12 May 2014Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
