About my Fairlane

I'm a Pastor here in ohio and this car is my therapy!  It is a 1970 Ford Fairlane 500.  It was a bare bones model and as far as I can tell everything is still stock on the car.  It came out of North Carolina and is extremely clean underneath.  It has a 302, with 2 bbl. carb., vinyl floor, basic bench seats, no air and it even still sports a set of points!  It is a beautiful example of early 70's Ford style and engineering.  My dad and I were able to get 23mpg's on a road trip to the Corvette Museum last summer cruising at 50-55 on the back roads.  It's a joy to drive and turns heads.
