    I've had this Fairlane for a few years and it was a low-mileage, one-owner rust-free car, but I hated the color (pale yellow), so it is now the color of my first car ('68 Fairlane), Highland Green. Just have to get the headliner and back window installed to complete it.

    Sweet Fairlane. I had a 69 that was Wimbledon white with a black vinyl top and blue interior. 46k miles when I bought it from the original owners. Seeing yours makes me miss mine!

    That's a great looking Fairlane! I like the formal roofs better than the fastbacks of those years.

    Beautiful car! In '69 Dad brought home a white '69 Torino Gt fastback with a red 'C' stripe on the sides, red interior and a 428 Cobra Jet under the hood. The next day he took it back to get a Custom 500 four door sedan :(

    Yea, it looks a little different from when we cruised St. Louis in it. I have a factory Ram-Air unit, Ford Holley carb, C9OX aluminum intake (from Ward) and a pair of original SCJ aluminum valve covers that I hope to have on it before the Gathering.
