1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt Re-Creation

HISTORY: As the muscle car market took shape, Ford introduced a Fairlane for drag strip racing for 1964, heavily modified to incorporate a 427 in³ (7.0 L) V8 with two four-barrel carburetors on a high-riser manifold, ram-air through the openings left by deleting the inboard headlights, equal-length headers, trunk-mounted battery, fiberglass hood, doors, fenders and front bumper, acrylic glass windows, and other lightweight options including deleted rear door window winders, carpeting, radio, sealant, sun visors, armrests, jack, lug wrench, heater, soundproofing, and passenger side windshield wiper. This special model, of which 111 to 127 total were made depending on who you ask, delivered 500 hp (373 kW) at 7,000 rpm and was known as the Thunderbolt.

DESCRIPTION: If you're looking for a jam-up, professionally built street legal hot-rod, this car IS FOR YOU !!
This car is street legal but, was built as a full fledge drag car. It is equipped with a Ford 460 engine with approximately 500 horsepower and matched up with a Ford Racing C-6 automatic transmission. It has a full 2X4 frame, full roll cage, fiberglass hood, shortened rear end, 4,000 r.p.m. stall converter, hood mounted fuel gauge, original AM radio, trunk mounted battery, rack & pinion steering and a 44 inch wide rear end with a dana rear end.

The best of everything was used in building this car. Check out the pictures and notice how well the interior, body and paint was finished. It is our opinion that you couldn't build this car for less than $80,000. It is that well done!!
IF YOU WANT A REAL "HEAD-TURNER" THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!
