What's with all those bullet hole stickers? Ruined the looks of the car. If you want bullet holes, then make bullet holes!

First car might be OK but the ad text sound like someone talking out their ass...where's a power butt wipe when you need it.
I was kinda groovin' with the second one. Bullet holes and all. At least the stick on bullet holes can be peeled off.
Not to change the subject any more than it already has, but did you ever fix a bullet hole. A lot harder than I thought!

Yes, 28 of them in a 66 Failane 500 2dr ht. Not a panel on the car that didn't have a bullet hole in it. Funny thing, not a single piece of glass was broken or chipped. Fellow that bought the car thought it would be no big deal to fix the holes, just hammer them flat and weld.....ya right.
That blue and white one looks more like a custom than a fairlane hardtop as it is stated in the ad.

It's amazing how many time you see that from classic car dealers. Apparently all fords are Fairlanes to some. What got me was the opening "all original" line, then went for 2 paragraphs on all the painting and changes that had been done to it. May be a great car, but the ad needs rewriting.

How did you do that quote with the gray background? I did it once and couldn't do it again.

If memory serves,the term" rock crusher" used to be a certain GM 4-speed

Zap and Sprinkle88 Thanks I hope I get it right this time.
Rich It is amazing how they get away with making false ads like calling a custom a Fairlane hardtop.
