the K code fairlanes for 64 had black painted blocks, gold valve covers and gold air cleaners and no fan shrouds , a classic car place owns the car and they have been trying to sell it for $85,000 for a long time

Bob , where do you live in Iowa , i am in Indianola , and how long does it take you to get to Columbus?

i will be going but i only live 10 miles south and i will be bringing my 64 Fairlane S.C. K Code, Red on Red

i will give you a little word of advice on buying u-joints , you want to buy one with no grease zerk because they are solid and stronger , the ones with zerks are hollow , we found that out while drag racing.

I do not know where you live but give me a call in indianola 515-314-1160 i just finished putting the floor in one last week am now putting rear quarters on have already put firewall both front frames and inner fenders , if you want to come and look your welcome to do that Larry

where in iowa are you , i live in indianola

The early Fairlanes were 5 bolt , my 64 Fairlane S.C. K code was built on Oct.7 1963 and it is a 5 bolt.

I will tell you what guys I am a sheetmetal worker , have been for 42 years what your seeing is the stamp that United States Steel used to put on all galvinized metal , after the the sheet is run thru the zinc tank it goes thru a series of rollers to flatten it out because the zinc is so hot it wants to warp the metal and then it goes thru a roller like a printing press that puts those stamps on them about every 4 feet or so all it is is ink becaue it wipes right off with a cleaner , you dont see it on to much steel any more because most of the steel is made over seas , and i know they closed down a couple of steel plants in ohio , let me look around and see if i can find some old duct work with the stamp still on them , if any body knows of any the stamp will probaly be on the inside of the duct . Thanks Larry

Gary , If you need any help about your Fairlane give me a yell I also own a 64 Fairlane Sport Coupe K-Code , I live just south of DesMoines in Iowa I am still missing the fan but thats it and the car still needs a lot of work but it drives great and thats what counts , and its easy to get in the trunk just put a screwdriver in the hole and you will feel a slot just turn it and it will pop . Thanks Larry
