1966 Ford Fairlane 500 XL Z-Code

Description for Ford Fairlane 1966

This slick looking 66 Fairlane 500 XL is located in Tennessee and is up for auction or for sale. I am helping a friend sell this car as he has more cars than space. It has been in our shop for a month. We have driven it and checked it out thoroughly, the car is clean and rust free. The under carriage is clean and very solid. The car was bought new in CA and comes with the original Bill of Sale and copy of original title. The 2nd owner bought the car from the estate of the original owner (she was an elderly woman who could not drive anymore) in CA. The Fairlane went through easy restoration and slight modifications to make more fun to drive and nice on the eyes. Being an XL model Z-code car, it had all the desired components (390, Console, Bucket Seats, and Auto Trans). The motor was changed to even a bigger motor and C-6 transmission from 1970 Lincoln. The 460 was built to specs (by a performance machine shop in CA) as was the C-6. The suspension was gone through and a Posi-trac rear 9'' Ford unit was rebuilt with 3:25 gears for great cruising. This car has great stance to it and is clean with all original, rust-free sheet metal. There is a dash cap on original dash and it looks good. The 3rd owner bought the Ford and cruised sparingly, he suggests he may have added 5000 miles since he purchased it. The Fairlane drives fantastic and stops fine with front power disc brakes. The big block 460 feels to put out 450 + horsepower with much torque and the C-6 shifts crisply. The stance is lowered some and the long tube big block headers have touch ground at some point. They appear not to leak or hinder performance. This car has a wicked kick down passing gear and will leave hard at a green light.

Pictures will tell what the car is and what it has.
