1966 Failane 500XL Convertible (LIKE NEW)

(*******REDUCED SELLING PRICE - FIRM******) I have for sale a 1966 Fairlane 500XL Convertible with a 289 V/8 and a 2 barrel carburetor backed by a C-4 Automatic Dual-Range Automatic transmission. Both have been reconditioned to factory specifications. This is a factory matching number car and is in perfect shape. I redone the car about 61/2 years ago and cut no corners. I only go to local car shows and cruises and have won several trophies with this car. This year this car took 2nd place in the all fords show in St. Louis Missouri, only to be beat by a freshly rebuilt Fairlane brought in on trailer. The Fairlane has been garaged its whole life and has no body problems at all and has all original sheet metal in floor pan and upper body it came with from the factory as well as all original body glass and exterior chrome. I soda blasted the original paint (Candy Apple Red)from the body completely including engine compartment (Flat Black)after removing exterior chrome, and had it repainted it back factory Candy Apple Red.(Album pictures available) It has not been polished in 6 years and still holds a mirror finish. Spray-on Auto detailer is all I have used on the paint. I had the convertible top replaced with original type top with glass rear window. All rubber body gaskets have all been replaced as was the convertible top which has the factory type glass rear window (Glass not plastic), the original top is also available if the buyer wants it. I could go on and on about this Fairlane but the reason for selling it is that I have come across a 1 owner 1966 Thunderbird Convertible that has been is storage 12 years and I am now in the process of refreshing this car. So after soul searching for several months I decided to sell the Fairlane. Only one classic car can be driven at a time and I chose the Thunderbird Convertible.
