The 427 Fairlane Is The Holy Grail From The Total Performance Years (http://www.mustangandfords.com/featuredvehicles/fairlane/mdmp_1004_1966_ford_fairlane_hardtop/index.html)The '66 Fairlane 500 hardtop you see here is owned by Ann and Eddy Hanley of Tarrytown, New York. Ann and Eddy are siblings and they and several other family members inherited the car from their brother George, who passed away during the restoration of the Fairlane. George bought the Fairlane from the original owner as a project way back in 1980 for the low sum of just less than $1,000. The car had been sitting under an Oak tree for many years and was covered in acorns. As Eddy puts it, the hardtop had "begun to turn green." The engine and transmission were nearby in a barn, as were many other original parts to the Fairlane. George was an auto body man by trade, and he worked in the industry for 45 years. George's obsession with correctness on the restoration of the car amazed both Ann and Eddy.inline_mediumwraptextright32293452/featuredvehicles/fairlane/mdmp_1004_1966_ford_fairlane_hardtopmdmp_1004_02_+ 1966_fairlane+top_front_angle.jpgTrue
