Ford : Fairlane GTA for sale
Current customer rating: (192 votes ) based onThe original 390 unfortunately had a hole through the side of the block. ( that's why the car sat forever) and the transmission then got sold at some point back in the day. So wanting to do a period correct upgrade I located a nice running original standard bore 460 and matching C6 from a 1968 Lincoln Mark 3. (365 hp 500 ft/lbs torque) The 460 was then torn down. machined. balanced and blue printed and assembled with brand new HP components. The matching C6 and torque converter were also completely rebuilt with all heavy duty components and a mild shift kit to handle the extra power. After rebuilding. restoring. re-plating and repainting every nut and bolt this power train was then professionally installed with the correct Crites mounting kit. The drive shaft is custom built 3. 5" diameter heavy duty unit keeping the extra torque in mind. The original 9" rear end with 3. 25 gears was upgraded with all new bearings and a forged posi unit. The exhaust system consists of crites long tube headers coated in black with a beautiful Flowmaster header back system with stainless tips designed for the Fairlane. I wanted the power train to appear as a stock 390 unless you know what your looking at. This car is the ultimate sleeper. super smooth. super fast and super quiet.
The chassis was also completely rebuilt. Starting with all new bushings. shocks. springs restored. steering box rebuilt. new steering cylinder and valve. new linkage. brakes upgraded with era correct dual master cylinder and front disk brakes. Original 10" rear brakes completely restored with all new brake lines and hoses front to back. This car was originally power steering and power brakes and still is. Rims are original style to the car are brand new reproduction 15x7 stamped styled steel wheels wrapped in brand new BFG radial TA's.
Now this is a true S-code car. the vin on the door tag. rad cradle and both front inner fenders match. The car is done back to correct colors as per the door tag. Marti report is on order and will be included with the car. I have all the original manuals and a few original receipts for work done on the car back in the early 70s. I even have the letter from Ford congratulating the new owner. I attempted to remain as true to the car as possible during this restoration. Other than a few period correct upgrades and some modern tires and exhaust I feel it is a very tasteful and driveable restoration This is truly a brand new car and drives better than when it came off the factory floor.
Now I have 100% feedback and want to keep it that way. I am a very honest and own a respected Automotive shop. I have restored 90% of this car myself or had a hand in every other step. No one knows this car better than me. so please don't hesitate to ask questions. Even though this car is freshly restored it is not flawless. Anyone can find minor cosmetic imperfections in any restored car. Keep in mind this is a sixty thousand dollar restoration not a one hundred thousand dollar one.
