Traffic is a little slow on the forum lately so I thought I'd start this thread to pass some time.
I love my 76 highboy, but I'd have to say a 1966 R code Fairlane would top the list. I love that 66/67 body style.
So what's your FE vehicle of choice?

 

My first FE powered vehicle was a '64 T-Bird. It was not a barn-burner, but it sure liked an open road and an open throttle. I still have dreams about that car...

 

I have only owned one, my 65' galaxie. I love the thing so far despite it giving me hell for the last month. Thank god she is back up and running now Thanks for your guys help on that by the way.

 

i own a 1966 fairlane not driving yet after getting my truck running i begin restoring this fairlane
what do you think

 

my 63.5 Galaxie 500

 

That fairlane doesnt look too bad for a what I'm guessing was found in the woods or field behind someone house. Body is straight, some rust but definitely repairable and the interior is better than I thought it would be. Gotta toss the little 289 and put the 427 in there though!

Need to take the leafblower to her! haha

 

it was my father i laws he had it parked and left it for 25 years
it was left to him when his aunt past, he was driving his 63 1/2 so it just sat
then i came along im going to bring her back to life but im going to leave it mostly orginal ill just use my truck for speed ill use that 292 when im low on gas money. but thanks for commenting

 

I'm with sleepy for sure. 427R code. 64 427 thunderbolt is way cool though too. I've got better pics of our fairlanes in this thread if anyone wants to see them.

You wouldnt happen to have a mop would you? Cause I just drooled all over my keyboard..

 

That 428 that was going into dad's turned into a 390, due to a cracked crank, stretched rods, and cracked block from #4main all the way up to the cam journal that didn't blow up. Was just taking it apart to check before putting in dads car. I'm putting it together in a couple weeks. That's got me real excited to watch dad with the fe racing again. And just to hear the sound of the FE again. I like my 514 but I'm really an fe guy at heart and wish now I would have spent the money on an alum. 427 block. Someday. That roller cam in there just makes my heart go crazy when I hear it run. Should be a decent wheelstand too!

 

Nice lookin, lots of potential. Sorry but I'm with sleepy, gotta go with the 427 if you can, or least put a worked over 390 in it. Wow, 427fordman, awesome garage man, I hope I can have a collection like that in 10 years. The FE that I would want over any other vehicle would be the 1965 galaxie that got banned in 65' from nascar with the cammer still installed and in full race trim

 

Mine is the 428 CJ powered mustang in my avatar. My mom bought it new when I was in Viet Nam and I inherited it when she could'nt keep it up. Thusly I'm registered as the original owner. Sorry the avatar didn't come up. Will try it again.

 

For what ever reason other websites will take my avatar but not FTE!

 

It's a toss-up between the GT40 MK II and the 427 Cobra, although I do favour the Cobra more.





However, if you use Danica as a hood ornamanet on your old Ford Pick-up, then that's my favourite vehicle:

 

hahaha very true! I'm a big fan of the cobra as well. It's #2 on my list.
