1963 Ford Farilane Ranch Wagon

1963 Ford Fairlane Description

First off let me say that I do not like selling a car sight unseen. What is nice to one person is junk to another. For that reason I prefer you come see the car or have your representative look it over. This is a 53 year old car so there will be some things that need attention. This was an Oklahoma car that made its way to Illinois in 1993 and has been garaged ever since. 1963 Ford Fairlane Ranch Wagon. Originally the car came with a 260 V8 and 2 speed automatic transmission. It now has a 289 V8 and a C4 3 speed automatic.
