  • REVan Evan and Abe Tango spot Denny Neighbor Jr's awesome 1966 Fairlane that's been in the family since new. It still wears it's original paint scheme from the '60s and was recently raced for the first time in 35 years with the combination from the 1970s.
    If you liked this video, you'll love this 1967 4-speed Fairlane:

    My dad was a FE nut. He ran a 428 Shelby in his 69 Ford ranger PU with a built C6 transmission. 😉😁

    My dad had a 1950 ford truck with a 4cyl and bought a galaxy 500 with a 352clevland in it and put that in the Ford truck with the auto and made the truck a flat bed for hauling wood back in the 1980s I wish he still had it

    Cool car. I like rare combinations like that. He's smart for not getting greedy with the boost. The first five pounds from a Roots blower are the best. Over 7 psi, forget it.

    Its good to see this car again! Its from Ohio where I used to live. I saw that car on the streets in the 70s and car shows in the 80s such places as the I-X center and the all Ford show in the parking lot of the Cleveland Ford Casting Plant. Car was owned by Kurt Neighbor. Paint job was very similar to the new one and it ran on American Torque Thrust mag wheels then. Thanks for showing this car! Good to see it again!

    I know Kurt. Nice guy. I've been around a LONG time and never saw a blown 390! Gary Cochran ran a blown 352, then a 427 in a Comp Roadster (short Dragster with a T body) back in the early 60's, but I never saw it race. This is a cool Fairlane. Love the paint. Great story. How about getting the NMCA to Division 1?

    Evan it was nice meeting you and Abe at Bradenton, and Denny definitely is now a drag racer as well as a circle track guy.
    AND Denny cut not one but TWO .000 perfect lights. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

    You can see the hole in the floor from the 4 speed! I wonder if that car came from the factory with a 4 speed.
    About 35 years ago, there was a '66-'67 Fairlane 2 door HT parked near the University of Cincinnati, which was the light olive green with a black vinyl top, and it had 390 badges on the front fenders!

  • @theariesexperiment4642
    @theariesexperiment4642 2 года назад +1

    4lbs of boost??? You could throw 10 at that motor and it would eat it like a champ. Then you'd have a hotrod. Very cool car though.

  • @carmiethompson2676
    @carmiethompson2676 2 года назад

    If Denny hasn't freshened up the bottom end then 4 psi of boost is plenty. The FE's have a skirt design though a 390 is a two-bolt main & a cast crank, very if-ie for anything over 5 psi. Killer paint! I like the stance of the Fairlane. Denny needs to find the grill medallion.
