1963 Ford Fairlane

I am seriously considering this 1963 Fairlane.  The color is puke, but it has fins.  The '64 for sale in Illinois does not.

This other '63 needs paint and body work and is a coupe.  I think I like the four-door better.  It has more class.

If I didn't have stuff to do this weekend, I would drive up and kick the tires on that '64 in Illinois.  It's just over the border from St. Louis.

The Fairlane would make car #4.  I could probably leave the Camry at work and use it to shuffle parts and people around the three buildings I support (I would only need to move it occasionally) until I got rid of that damn Accord.  I want something with a plush ride that I can take on a long trip.  The MGB isn't really suited for that, at least not until I can get a decent exhaust installed.  Having three cars would lower my insurance -- it would mean fewer miles per car and Hagerty's has good rates and coverage.  My current policy covers everything for only $130 a year but I'm limited to 5,000 miles on the MGB.

BattleHymn:
The 63 looks the best out of that bunch.  :cheersmate:

BattleHymn:
I wonder if I could sneak this home and hide it from spousal unit:

That nose is pretty imposing.  I'm partial to the '49 Dodge (there was one for sale recently).
