Well, I won't get around to restoring it, since I have the '63 merc, and a few other projects and I don't have room to store it until I have time. So...I guess I got to sell it. Here's a pic home.webifyit.ca/pictures/_NEW_/cars/ford/1963_Fairlane/1963Fairlane_0286B.jpgMore pictures @ home.webifyit.ca/pictures/_NEW_/cars/ford/1963_Fairlane/Anyhow, it has a running 221, and the colour is supposed to be white. I have all the replacement glass for it, except the rear window. The front floor boards have some holes and should be replaced. And being 40 years old, the upholstery is not good. Other than that, the car is in good shape...well, and it's half apart and the parts are in the trunk. Which reminds me, someone tried to break into the trunk and mangled the lock and the metal right around it, I have a new lock, and a new piece of metal could be welded in easily by anyone with even basic welding abilities. It's located near Winnipeg MB. Offers? Or suggestions of what I should advertise it for elsewhere?

But of course. But watch how you mention Fairlanes around here, some Meteorites don't like Fairlanes (even though they strip them for common parts).

That's my other thought, to strip the fairlane and part it out...but being in Canada, I'd have to ship most of the parts I sell to the US, and that could be a pain...
And really, the car wouldn't take too much to restore...considering it runs, and the metal is all good, other than the floor, and the trunk lock, the metal is pretty darn good!
