1964 Fairlane Sports Coupe 500
This was originally a 6 cylinder, automatic car. Bought froma little old lady whose father in law bought new from Ford. Her husband hadplans of restoring it but passed away before getting around to it. I bought itfrom her, promising to clean it up and get it back on the road. Unfortunately,circumstances have changed slightly and a move out of state means this thingneeds to move along to someone new. This was absolutely a complete, stock, unmolested car when I took ownership of it. There was only one piece of rain moulding trim missing, which I have not yet purchased. Otherwise, all parts to put this car back together are included, plus many spares/extras of parts that are hard to find.
The original plan wasto build a well-designed, well-handling pro touring type car while stillkeeping it very streetable. For the most part that plan has been followed,though in some areas the build process got a little overboard withcustomization. Along the way, the thought of someone wanting to add their owntouch later was constantly in mind. This car could very easily be convertedto a 3-link or torque arm setup, and the rear shock mounts would act as greatcoilover mounts. Same with the drivetrain mounts. They are simple polyurethanemounts that could easily be adapted to other combinations without having to cutthe car up. There is no rust or rot issues in any area of this car. I have pictures from the day I took ownership, through the build process, and up to current day. Feel free to ask questions or for specific pictures if you\'d like.
This is a complete car including bucket seats, centerconsole (in great shape), as well as radio, dash pieces, gauge cluster, all interior trim and original pieces. Thesesmaller pieces are boxed, labeled and ready to be polished so they can bereinstalled.

Thelist above is the large items, though there are many smaller items not listedthat will all be included. Front coilovers and rear shocks have not yet been purchased, but upon sale of the vehicle I will pass along dealer pricing on these items to the new owner.The interior floors have been painted back to thefactory Wimbledone White color, and the firewall and underside have beensprayed semi-gloss black after being stripped of the factory undercoating (whata nightmare of a job!).
This is a $35k plus car once complete. Guarantee you won’tfind another Fairlane with this amount of work and detail invested. Pick thisup while you can, invest a little more and you’ll have a one in a million carfor sure. This car is for sale locally as well, so I have the right to end the auction at any time due to a local transaction. I am only selling because I am moving out of state next month and need to focus on other things at the moment. It is heartfelt to see it go, but I hope it can be made into an excellent hot rod for someone.

Sorry for all the additional pictures and information after the fact.I was asked if bumpers were included with the car. They are included, but are not new chrome. They would need to be stripped and re-chromed.I was also asked about the seats and glass. Both are included. All glass is good but needs to be polished. Bucket seats and rear seats are in decent shape for their age, meaning they are not completely ripped apart. Covers are for the most part in tact (a few small openings), foam is all there, seat frames are great.Please do not hesitate to ask questions or ask for specific pictures.I have this listed locally, and therefore reserve the right to end the auction early if the car does sell locally. Also, your bid is a contract, and is certainly not a pass to come and look at the car to see if you like it. If you want to come see it, do so BEFORE you bid.Thanks everyone.
