1967 Ford Fairlane 500 XL

[PontiacHO]

1 of only 72 built. This isn't your everyday grocery getter.
My dad bought a used 1968 Fairlane, 302, auto, for my older sister when she graduated from high school in 1976.

Underrated at 425 horsepower. You had to be pretty darn experienced to maintain control of that car while rowing through the gears!

I bet that exhaust sounds mean. What modern oil would you use in it?

This is what I would use.

This with a 289, neighbor had a 67 impala with a 327- what were these cars like to drive with smaller engines?

I owned a 1968 Impala fastback, 327, Turbo 400, 12 bolt posi. It ran like a RAPED APE!
