Fairlane GT survivors
I just received some pictures from my friend and was so struck by this pair together I thought I'd share. These two are members of the McKay collection here in Washington. Both are unrestored, original paint cars. Both are also GT's with 390/4 speed drivetrains. The white on black car is a 1966 model with 19k original miles. The red on red car is a 1967 model with closer to 40k original miles, IIRC.

The redlines really set them off as well.

----One of the few Fords that I really like the lines of. The 4-speed GTs are hard to find too. Those are some nice rides. Not especially fast but pretty damn cool!.......Bill S

I love those cars. I've had a few '66 GT, GTA and 500 XL cars. Never anything really nice. They all needed quite a bit of work. I'd love to have a nice one. Here is a sad story. I had a chance several years ago to buy a '66 GT that had a '67 medium riser 427 in it. The car was really nice and the 427 was still complete except for the exhaust manifolds. I had the guy down to $5,000 but I was trying to get out of debt at the time and had to pass. That is the car that I regret letting go more than any other.

I always thought those were really good looking cars. Nice lines, classic style. Very nice!!!

Wow, those are neat, one of the few Ferds ive ever been interested in owning.
|
I much prefer the '66, but the '67 is much rarer.

The whole industry was using redlines on their muscle cars in the mid to late 1960s except Ford. |
Those are nice!

Very sharp, thanks for sharing! My brother-in-law has a 67 GT/A convertible, not as nice as either of these two, but a nice driver and an unusual sight to see.
