1965 Ford Fairlane

Description

While the name 'Fairlane' might not immediately engender feelings of intimidation, we can assure you that this 1965 Ford Fairlane will change all of that. The '65 model year brought larger and blockier lines to the sedan, which serves as the perfect foundation to up the ante on this car's attitude. A full matte black repaint and blacked-out 17-inch Mag 500 style wheels shod in modern 225/45R-17 front and 245/45R-17 rear low-profile rubber give this car a presence that can be felt even through photographs.

Inside, we find an original-style interior covered in black vinyl and cloth interior with a big bench seat for both driver and passenger to share. A linear 120 mph speedo sits behind the classic two-spoke steering wheel, while the push-button AM/FM stereo sits on display and the floor-mounted shifter topped by an 8-ball knob grabs your attention.

Under the hood, a tried-and-true 289 cubic-inch Ford V-8 is topped with a single four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor and matching Edelbrock intake. That power is routed through a modern five-speed manual transmission before being sent off to the aforementioned rear performance tires. While the burble of its true dual exhaust is impressive, what you can't see is how impressively clean the undercarriage of this car is despite being half a century old.

Highlights:
• Matte Black Repaint
• 17 inch Mag 500 Wheels
• Low Profile Rubber
• 289 CID V8
• Edelbrock Intake
• Edelbrock Carb
• New Radiator
• New Fan

This car has also been the beneficiary of new carpeting, a repainted dash, a new radiator, a new fan, and the ever-important tune-up. So, while the name 'Fairlane' might not immediately make you think twice about looking in your rearview mirror, this particular 1965 Ford Fairlane, with its imposing blacked-out fury, will quickly make you, and everyone else, realize just how unfair it is comparing it with any of those stock cars.
