I'm looking for a 1966 Ford fairlane conv for my dad. My brother and mom think it would be a great present if we can find him this car that he had before he went to vietnam..

Are plan is to get one, and have it ready for next years fathers day and give it to him then..

We want to give him the some modernization with it, better brakes 5 speed, but still keep stock look..

Anyway any help is greatly apprecited.

Sounds cool! Like this one?

That's a fairly decent non-eBay site to find cars.

...and the classifieds section of any forums specific to the model you are looking for.

I always visit da bad side of town of a city hosting a big car show about a week ahead of time. Place my order and wait for a call. :)

have any pics, how much rust? A motor swap maybe a option, so motor and tranny not a issue.
