I love these cars. Got my 1967 hardtop since 1989. I live in Canada, short summers but still put over 160,000 miles on it for a total of 265,000 miles on that little 289. Whatever you got. Get out a drive the wheels off it. You won't regret it!!! Life is short.
Very nice. Perfect wheel/tire/hubcap combo. Beautiful styling, proportion, and size. Great to see one that survived and is appreciated. Proof that it doesn't have to be a GT, R/T, or an SS to be a cool, fun car.
An underappreciated or overlooked perhaps marketing at the time. What a nice car I like Dog/Granny caps ... and forget "numbers matching" ...haha the only numbers are those on the Speed limit that C4 trans is the way to go ... Grammy approves. Whomever owns it... lucky you
Sweet car. A buddy in HS back in the 80s had a yellow 1966 390 gt car. Still to this day the feeling of riding in that car and the utter power and noise of a big block burning the tires across a empty mall parking lot for ever lives in my mind. 😂
Being a TASCA Ford car, makes it even more valuable. I own three vintage high-performance Fords that I bought new from there. One being a '67 Ford Fairlane XL/GT 427 4 speed in-house dealer-built car.
Would be cool if it really was sold from Tasca. Emblem is on there only because it's a super cool dealership where the 428 CJ was basically invented. Pretty sure it's not an original emblem...think it's a repop from one of the parts places like Ecklers or Mac's etc. The original owner's manuals is with the car. it was sold new in Wisconsin.
@@milesoncars6588 That TASCA Ford emblem is very vintage and nearly impossible to find an original one from the 60's. By 1970, the TASCA Ford emblems were no longer just plain color. There are reproductions available but this car's TASCA Ford emblem looks to be an original. The ID number could be traced to see if this car was originally sold at TASCA Ford. I have the documentation that proves that my three cars were sold there.
@@milesoncars6588 Yes, Bob Tasca Sr created the Ford Cobra Jet engine. Bob Tasca Sr also created the dealer auto leasing program. He was also a marketing genius. He came up with "race on Sunday, sell on Monday." TASCA Ford built many in-house high performance Fords that the Ford factory never produced.
I’m on Mopar Guy throughout. But if I were to switch to the other side, it would definitely be this car. It looks great, sounds great, love the dog dish hubcaps. I wouldn’t change a thing.
That sure is a very beautiful car I hope whoever buys that car will take care of it I had one of those myself a 1966 hardtop but mine was very unusual it supported a 205 in line 6 Mustang engine with a C4 automatic transmission and the car had a 20 gallon fuel tank and if I remember when I bought that car it never seen daylight it sent in a garage since 1969 because the owner went blind and he couldn't drive the car anymore so it sat in the garage when I got it it had less than 8,000 original miles and the car was in light metallic blue and if I remember correctly that the interior was absolutely mint and the body hardly had any surface rust on it whatsoever I still wish I had that car good luck with the sale.

I so nearly won an Ebay auction for one of these in England a few years ago. It would have been so cool 😎 As you might imagine...In England it is rarer to see than hens teeth.
My parents bought their first new car in June, 1966. It was a Fairlane 500 4 door sedan. I remember the day like it was yesterday. I was 9 at the time. The window sticker had a total price of $2,843.44. It’s hard to imagine that now, but my parents congratulated themselves because the car that my father really wanted had a window sticker of $3,006.05. My mother said that there was no way they could afford $3,000! The Fairlane turned out to be a really good car.
I had a 283 Corvette motor nice cam in a 68 nova. The 289 and 283 short stroke were some of the best and 0 to 60 was scary. Guess they quit making them because they were..BULLETPROOF!!!!
@@markreisen7038 I didn't know WHEEL width exactly, since I never had the rear TIRES off the wheels...I never took a tire off a wheel to put a tape measure to the wheel to measure the wheel width. rear tires were 275/60-15s. i would estimate the rear wheels were 15x8s or 9s. You can go ahead and think I'm a dumb ass but, there's a difference between a wheel and a tire right?
Wish I still owned it 😪, but it was sold earlier this year. I am now good friends with the buyer and have pressed a little bit on him to buy it back someday....
Yeah, and the 390 was factory rated at 335 horsepower, so how do you figure your 306 is going to take on an S code 390 and win, you must be delusional as your 289 is no where near stock. Go figure, no wonder Car Craft is history...
@@markreisen7038 stock 390’s are pigs. I had one. It takes EXTENSIVE mods to make power with one. Poor cams, heads, intake & carb and exhaust. ALL must be upgraded.
@@kimmorrison9169 I had a stock 1969 390 2bbl rated at 265 HP. It was anything but a pig, lot's of torque and it ran great on regular gas. In fact I consider it one of Ford's "better idea's" !
@@briansearles4473 Sounds like a daily driver that you had no issues with but when I say 390's are "pigs" I' m meaning that they certainly not hi po engines. In the 60's and early 70's, 390 Fords were not beating the competition at the drag strips across the nation. Quite under powered compared to other engines of this size. As a daily driver not racing they are fine.
Well I Think it's a very nice little classic car I love it 😀 😍 great video and great job buddy 👍 stay safe out there my friend 😊 🙏🙏 and Happy New Year 😀

If you want to invest a little bit more money you can put a Holley dominator on it add stop at loading up and get it to idle where it's supposed to and a Holley dominator is not really that expensive then you would have a sweet running car that's my suggestion but I think you just trying to offload beautiful car man I wish I had the money to buy it this is Ken down in groveland
That's the fun I've having a good sound in car it's pissing off the neighbors if you don't piss the neighbors off at least once a week you're not doing anything right yeah I used to piss off the highway patrol in the ocoee Police scuse me not a Ford Fairlane with my my Ford galaxie add a 393 speed with overdrive glass packs and it would rattle the windows as I went by and the police station with right next to the fire station right there in the center of town right across from a convenience store when you drove up through town going out to highway 50 and you're rolling it pretty good hit rattlin the rattlin the class and stuff in the in the windows and and like I said the police department right across from oak convenience store right next to the fire station so they didn't like it too much I said that's the point of having a good sound in car is pissing off the
Nice car. Really overshadowed in period by virtually anything GM made, though. Street racers looked at the Fairlane/Comet as second-rate midsize cars, and for a fact the Chevy II outsold both of them. I alwayys liked 'em, espacially those unicorn 427 Fairlane street cars. But Ford said "Total Performance" and then dropped the ball.
That's why the 66/67 Fairlane is so hard to find these day's. Mid 60's Chevell's are a dime a dozen, much easier to find. Also this Fairlane is a fastback hardtop, most were sedans which don't look as good.
You are having dreams in the daytime when you say that you are going to outrun a car that is about the same weight but has a 390 with a 4 barrel carb The 289 is a real goed engine but it isn't what you want to make it out to be. There is a reason for more displacement. There is something wrong with the set up yu have oon that engine. It actually seems like you are trying to get rid of the car before you have to do some more work and spend money on parts you are going to need to get the engine straightened out so that it is timed right and holds it's timing. It actually sounds like your carb is not tubed up right to the correct method of timing to the way the timing advancement. Is it a ported vaccum or is it just running on manifold vacuum. I don't think you know enough about how that engine was put together and whoever put it together didn't spend enough time on getting the carb and timing in the correct porting and that is actually why you are having so many problems holding a constant solid idle. Another thing, if you keep revving that car like that don't be surprised when you rev it one too many times without any kind of resistance or load on the engine. I have seen it happen more than once when an idiot keeps on revving an engine, especially an old engine they end up with a rod sticking through the side of the block or have big holes that have burned right through the top of a piston or two. Just eep on doing it and sooner or later it will happen. You are going to stand with the hood up and there is oil, coolant and pieces of the engine all over the engine bay.
I meant a STOCK 390...and the guy that bot the car loves it. We are good friends and it runs perfectly. It will spank a stock 390 and probably stay with a stock 428 CJ...as I said...STOCK...not a built big inch FE. With the manual valvebody trans and 3.70 gear and big cam it's good running car and it idles fine with a 244 at .050 cam. Yeah, keep on revving an engine over and over...I can count on one hand the number of times I did that in 7 years...so I am all good. I know what the engine is...so again...all good...🙌
@@milesoncars6588 I have never seen a 289 that could turn the wheels as fast as a big block 390. And with a FOMOCO 2 barrel carb that came as standard carb for a standard 300 hp 390. The 2 barrel carbs that they used on these 390 were designed to give great take off quickness and provide enough CFMs to easily cruise at the 70 mph speeds we had back in the day. Normally you would have to go to a small 4 bbl carb to get the fuel/air mix in excess of 600 CFM. But the designers at Ford came up with this great 2 barrel that had good standing performance and hiway performance with just two jets. If I were you I would re-consider running even a Galaxie with this set-up. When my Mom's car was new my Uncle took a Brand new 66 Mustang with the GT package of 289 HiPo flavor with the 4 speed Hurst shifter. That Mustang was one of my Uncles' car. I'm pretty sure that the posi rear end on the Galaxie won that race. When the horn blew the Galaxie seemed to just jump ahead at the start. The Mustang, even though it too had posi it just stood there and smoked the tires as the Galaxie was grabbing the asphalt. I guess I got a little long winded. Sorry

That's the fun I've having a good sound in car it's pissing off the neighbors if you don't piss the neighbors off at least once a week you're not doing anything right yeah I used to piss off the highway patrol in the ocoee Police scuse me not a Ford Fairlane with my my Ford galaxie add a 393 speed with overdrive glass packs and it would rattle the windows as I went by and the police station with right next to the fire station right there in the center of town right across from a convenience store when you drove up through town going out to highway 50 and you're rolling it pretty good hit rattlin the rattlin the class and stuff in the in the windows and and like I said the police department right across from oak convenience store right next to the fire station so they didn't like it too much I said that's the point of having a good sound in car is pissing off the
I would have gone 32k
Nice car. Really overshadowed in period by virtually anything GM made, though. Street racers looked at the Fairlane/Comet as second-rate midsize cars, and for a fact the Chevy II outsold both of them. I alwayys liked 'em, espacially those unicorn 427 Fairlane street cars. But Ford said "Total Performance" and then dropped the ball.
That's why the 66/67 Fairlane is so hard to find these day's. Mid 60's Chevell's are a dime a dozen, much easier to find. Also this Fairlane is a fastback hardtop, most were sedans which don't look as good.
A word of advice when making you tube videos. Get a really good microphone because the engines in most videos sound bad.
You are having dreams in the daytime when you say that you are going to outrun a car that is about the same weight but has a 390 with a 4 barrel carb The 289 is a real goed engine but it isn't what you want to make it out to be. There is a reason for more displacement. There is something wrong with the set up yu have oon that engine. It actually seems like you are trying to get rid of the car before you have to do some more work and spend money on parts you are going to need to get the engine straightened out so that it is timed right and holds it's timing. It actually sounds like your carb is not tubed up right to the correct method of timing to the way the timing advancement. Is it a ported vaccum or is it just running on manifold vacuum. I don't think you know enough about how that engine was put together and whoever put it together didn't spend enough time on getting the carb and timing in the correct porting and that is actually why you are having so many problems holding a constant solid idle. Another thing, if you keep revving that car like that don't be surprised when you rev it one too many times without any kind of resistance or load on the engine. I have seen it happen more than once when an idiot keeps on revving an engine, especially an old engine they end up with a rod sticking through the side of the block or have big holes that have burned right through the top of a piston or two. Just eep on doing it and sooner or later it will happen. You are going to stand with the hood up and there is oil, coolant and pieces of the engine all over the engine bay.
I meant a STOCK 390...and the guy that bot the car loves it. We are good friends and it runs perfectly. It will spank a stock 390 and probably stay with a stock 428 CJ...as I said...STOCK...not a built big inch FE. With the manual valvebody trans and 3.70 gear and big cam it's good running car and it idles fine with a 244 at .050 cam. Yeah, keep on revving an engine over and over...I can count on one hand the number of times I did that in 7 years...so I am all good. I know what the engine is...so again...all good...🙌
@@milesoncars6588 I have never seen a 289 that could turn the wheels as fast as a big block 390. And with a FOMOCO 2 barrel carb that came as standard carb for a standard 300 hp 390. The 2 barrel carbs that they used on these 390 were designed to give great take off quickness and provide enough CFMs to easily cruise at the 70 mph speeds we had back in the day. Normally you would have to go to a small 4 bbl carb to get the fuel/air mix in excess of 600 CFM. But the designers at Ford came up with this great 2 barrel that had good standing performance and hiway performance with just two jets. If I were you I would re-consider running even a Galaxie with this set-up. When my Mom's car was new my Uncle took a Brand new 66 Mustang with the GT package of 289 HiPo flavor with the 4 speed Hurst shifter. That Mustang was one of my Uncles' car. I'm pretty sure that the posi rear end on the Galaxie won that race. When the horn blew the Galaxie seemed to just jump ahead at the start. The Mustang, even though it too had posi it just stood there and smoked the tires as the Galaxie was grabbing the asphalt. I guess I got a little long winded. Sorry
It's an automatic
Muscle cars are meant to be standard 3 4 or 6 speed
Or even 5-speed. Sure, they are, but more than half of them aren't.
No emblems
You're wasting everyone's time by pricing a not perfect car like a perfect car.
