Popular Post BuzzArd Posted January 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2018 This is mine: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/d/1964-ford-fairlane-500-pro/6456679927.html My buddy's shop built this car before I knew him, so I know it's done really nicely. And who wouldn't want to cruise in a hot rod like this. The only things that I'd change would be to get that gay shifter off the floor and back up onto the column, and have decent door panels made to cover the speakers and eliminated the awful black speaker grills. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jtfrizzy Posted January 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2018 Well this isn't quite as fancy as the cars and and bikes you guys have posted, but this is the latest toy I bought. Xikar xi3 cutter even had them engrave my name on it. Real carbon fiber too. Love thisottle thing. But, clearly I need to step up my toy buying game compared to the rest of you guys...someday!

No telling.... well, you could tell this week at the auction I suppose. But 10 years ago this guy spent close to $200,000 to acquire the car and have it completely built. Today Duffee said it would easily approach $300k. So, someone that really wanted the "most desireable Fairlane" and didn't want two years of work and a $300k bill might just buy it up happily at its current ask. But not me. Way too fancy for me.

Popular Post zeedubbya Posted January 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2018 While I realize this isn’t a Ford Fairlane thread, I was motivated to post up this by previous posts. The owner(s) of the company I work for are Fairlane buffs and they have a couple of the most legendary Fairlanes in in the world in their collection. For all you drag car junkies—a couple “toys”:1964 Thunderbolt—all original parts restoration...only around 100 ever made..Factory drag car, notice no windshield wipers or side view mirrors, has under 300 original miles. Restored back to what the car looked like when it was trailered by its previous owner to drag races in the 1960s. The original owners wife (he has since passed away) provided pictures for the restoration. Incredible piece of automotive history. Inspired by the car above our owner races this car. A Ford Fairlane isn’t an easy car to get to do 8 seconds in the 1/4.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also has a great sound system you can listen to as you try to pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work for Mazda years ago. Every few weeks, we would go to the storage yard to pick up cars for the lot. The guys I worked with were all over 6', and had no problem fitting into the MX-5. It was fun racing back to the lot with brand new MX-5s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewNR Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I'm fairly sure in a previous life I was a Bowerbird.. I seem to have retained the likeness of collecting unusual and shinny things.. Bit of a collector but I'm also a sucker for a project, I guess my current favorite is the one I've just completed. Saw it for sale rather cheap, My limited knowledge told me it was worth 4 times as much restored so I bought it to restore.. 1977 Boosey and Hawkes Imperial Tuba in E-Flat I was to discover later... I did majority of the work myself, Then had the main body chemically cleaned and parts serviced as part of assisted re-assembly.. Turns out it could be worth 20 times what I paid... Rather than 4. Not bad for a winter project. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
