Description : Gateway classic cars of Nashville is proud to offer for sale this 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Thunderbolt tribute. Now in 1963 Ford decided to join the muscle car war in a big way. They took a small hand full, some say as little as 100 1964 Ford Fairlane 500âs and put them on a diet. Fiberglass was used liberally, sun visors, heaters, radio and anything that did not make the car go faster was removed. The drive train of choice was the 427 cubic inch big block and either a 3-speed automatic or a 4-speed manual transmission hooked up to a 9 inch rear axle. These cars were not available to the general public and if Ford offered you one, you bought it! This tribute to the brute has been built to very rigid standards and while the engine is not a 427, it is packing similar amounts of power. The 351 cubic inch Windsor is running 8.5 to 1 compression that is pump gas friendly and is equipped with a Holley Sniper EFI, customer aluminum heads that have 205 cc intake runners with 62 cc combustion chambers and houses 2.02 intake valves and 1.6 exhaust. A Ford E303 roller cam provides the lift and duration via the 1.6 roller rockers mashing Lunati springs. A 6AL MSD box with adjustable Rev limiter and two step control and 60,000 Volt coil provide the spark. Ford racing headers and Dougâs cut out help the exhaust out the back. A new AOD automatic transmission with reverse valve body that sends the power through a one-piece drive shaft to the 9 inch that houses a Yukon trac lock center section that has a set of 3.89 to 1 ring and pinion gears. This is a serious car and should come with a warning label that reads âtwisting the key on this car is not for the fragile or faint of heartâ Options for this 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Thunderbolt tribute include: Air Conditioning, Power steering and brakes, Power windows, tilt steering wheel, Radial tires, Racing wheel and Position traction because you will need it! this car is a monster at the pedal and you will not be disappointed.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
