1966 Ford Fairlane 500 XL Convertible For Sale

Z-Code 390 V8

Believed to be 80,452 Original Miles

This 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 XL Convertible is a gorgeous, big-block American cruiser that perfectly captures mid-60s muscle and style. Powered by the highly desirable Z-Code 390 V8 and finished in a spectacular color combination, this Fairlane offers premium top-down motoring with serious V8 punch. With miles believed to be original and an honest, transparent mechanical profile, this is a fantastic turn-key classic ready for weekend cruising.

The body is finished in a brilliant and timeless Candy Apple Red, providing an incredible contrast against the brand-new white convertible top. The top features a high-quality glass rear window and comes with a matching red parade boot for a clean, sleek look when the top is down. The cars aggressive yet classy stance is perfected by a brand-new set of 15-inch Scott Drake Magnum 500 chrome wheels wrapped in fresh BFGoodrich raised- white-letter tires.

As a 500 XL model, this Fairlane was equipped with Fords premium interior appointments. Originally leaving the factory with a beige cabin, the interior is original and beautiful with striking white bucket seats complete with seat belts. Between the buckets sits a factory center console flowing up to the dash, which retains its classic AM radio. The driver is greeted by a beautiful wood-rimmed, three-spoke steering wheel. Custom embroidered floor mats complete the highly detailed cabin.

At the heart of this Fairlane is the legendary Z-Code 390 cubic-inch V8, factory rated at a stout 325 horsepower. It breathes through a 4-barrel carburetor that has been upgraded with an electronic choke for easy and reliable startups. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a smooth-shifting automatic transmission.

The car is an absolute joy to drive, aided by power front brakes and power steering (which features a brand-new pump).

This Fairlane runs, drives, and cruises great. However, in our commitment to full transparency, we want to note a minor oil leak from the valve covers. The valve cover gaskets have been replaced twice recently without fully resolving the weep. Because of this, we recommend simply replacing the stamped valve covers themselves to achieve a perfect, flat seal. It is a minor, straightforward fix for the next owner.

The trunk compartment is beautifully finished and fully equipped, featuring a correct trunk mat, a spare tire with a cover, and the factory jack assembly. The sale also includes the original owners manual.

Finding a genuine Z-Code 390 Fairlane 500 XL Convertible is getting harder every day. With its stunning Candy Apple Red paint, brand-new Magnum 500 wheels, and a white top(5 Years Old), this big-block Ford is an absolute showstopper that is priced right and ready for the road.
