Cool! I dig the 66-67 Fairlanes.
It looks like it needs a lot of TLC. And a good wash!:-X04 I can't really tell from the pictures but is it a hardtop or a post car? It kind of looks like a hardtop from the one interior shot but I can't tell for sure. |

thanks i love this car... im lookin so foward to bringin her back to life. It has a hard top and i have plenty of tlc to give this will be another car i will have forever
|
Fordman,i have to agree with you i also think that it is a 2dr hardtop
|
sorry i forgot to tell yall its a 2 door hardtop
|
Those hard tops have some nice lines. The roof line just flows on them.
That's a sweet project. How bad is the rust? |
not bad at all there are no spot that the rust goes all the though.Some surface rust but not much .Been in the woods under a tree and kinda kept some rain off i guess.Once i can get my father in law to get the bobcat out so we can get it out ill take better pics
|
A solid Fairlane that's been in your family forever. You lucky dog!!!:-banghead
|
thanks guys
i cant wait to start rebuilding this car but i need to put my 360 in place of my 292 in my 1960 f250 after that i going to drive as is for a year or so. my project after the fairlane is a chevy 2 ton but im going to take it off and put on 65 chevy frame i wish it was a ford but we already own it and plenty of parts so it will be a lil cheaper
|
That fairlane is an incredible deal just to be sitting in your back woods. I used to have a 66 comet 2 door post car. Same as a fairlane just slightly different sheet metal. It was a small block ford powered drag car. What a seriously neat car. I still wish I had it.
