Steve1968LS2 is a very bad influence!!

I wasn't looking for another car cause I need to finish my Camaro, but I came across a really good deal. I bought a 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sport Coupe that is in real good shape I just need to install new carpeting, cover the front seats and replace the door panels. The Chrome is in real good shape.

I'm just going to fix and flip it to help fund the Camaro.

that is a very cool car! Is it original paint? If so, I might have to buy it! :rofl:

It would make a nice Thunderbolt clone if some one (like yourself) wanted to.
You have bought way to many cars lately.
What is you plans for the Dart?

Funny thing is that its a Fairlane and it was in Oregon just like Steve's car.


Its not Original paint it was painted a few years ago. It still looks good except for a couple spots. Not many places to chose from for interior parts for this thing. Dearborn Classics seems to be the only place.

I'm thinking a hemi Day 2 type street car. I'll likely swap to an earlier front end as I'm not a big fan of the 73 pointed nose and big bumper.

I always thought those were very cool looking cars.

Very nice looking car.
Love the white red color combo.
Steve is not the only bad influence around here.
Look at how many suggestions you have had already in regards to
modding out your new purchase:unibrow:

Hot Rod black primer, some wheels....and just use it to cruise while you finish the Camaro!

I've always liked those cars, but the Ford crowd always makes T-Bolt clones. Don't get me wrong, those are cool, but the Fairlane platform shares alot with Mustangs and someone could easily make a killer modern kick-ass PT car with one. Find a 5.0 donor, throw a little wind at it, some road race parts, and you're in bidness!

Kind of the delima I had with this 8200 original mile Maverick I bought. There is a trick front suspension from TCP and a cool rear suspension setup that could be put it pretty easy, but I'd end up with $100,000 in a car that's be worth $25K. I'm speaking of a full on, blown or turboed, minitubbed, etc. car.

Dare to be different is very cool, but can (and likely will) bite you in the arse come time to sell.

The '63's with the little fins are kinda cool too........
