1966 Ford Fairlane GTA S-Code

Description

This 1966 Ford Fairlane GTA was one of the best ways to bring power to the pavement. And because it was so respected back in the day, you'd better believe it still makes a stir today. But more than just a big motor brute, you'll marvel at the level of originality and care that has gone into this fast Ford. The Candy Apple Red immediately grabs your attention. Plus, the rocker triple stripe, GT fender badges, 390 callouts on the hood trim, and Ford's styled steel wheels are all reminders of how the GTA took no prisoners on the streets. But it also is still a premium Fairlane at heart. So you get the hardtop coupe body with the wraparound bumpers and distinct grille as long as the horizon. The interior continues the right balance of power car fun and gentlemanly style. After all, the red inside looks as sporty as the red outside, but there's added sophistication everywhere from the button-top seatbacks to the working courtesy lights in the doors. And as you look under the hood, the stock-style big V8 has subtle power upgrades like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and long tube headers. It all makes for an authentic upper-class GTA that you need to experience.

The GTA had a great reputation as a gentleman's muscle machine. It comes from having a stylish setup and a well-appointed bucket seat interior. And because the big 390 motor was mated to a stout but smooth C6 automatic transmission (it's the "A" in GTA) it still knew how to cruise. It's a unique package for its time, and because this one feels so authentic today, you really can feel the pulse of it through the steering wheel. It makes for the kind of powerful and genuine experience that is irresistible to true classic enthusiasts. So if you love a true muscle machine cruiser, you need this GTA in your garage. Call today!!!
