'66-'67 Fairlane Stockers

[Lee Jordan (3223) A/S]

Dad always tols me that story too. He was friends with Dallas Kelly.
If my A car dont sell I will race it again. I have two boys in college so it would be a few years before I could swing it.
I still am in need of a enclosed trailer. 24' or 22' at bare minimum. Dad sold has Pace 24' before he passed. It was one of the nicest he ever had.

Yep. Our Dad's were friends also. Dad was just telling me that he talked to your Dad probably one of the last times he had the car out at Edgewater. Dad said that he just came back from out west with it somewhere Missouri or Kansas maybe. Anyways, if it were me I would much rather have the car and gather what you need over time than to not have it at all. Money is just money if that car to you is like our car to me. Its part of the family.

Also, if I were you before you get it back out. Give Blair Patrick a call and have him go through it to make sure there aren't any issues from it sitting. That way you don't go out a loose a high end engine over something. If you want to just enjoy the car with your boys go run some UMTR races (stick shift race) with it. The UMTR South have races at Edgewater, Bluegrass or I-64 I think it is now, Beech Bend and Ohio Valley maybe. If you click on this link http://www.umtrnorth.com/forums/default.asp you will probably have to register but after you do that go to the UMTR South thread and check out this years schedule and go check out a race.

The motor needs freshened thats for sure. I do all my engine work but all I need is a good speed shop. I always had all my machine work done at Holbrooks in Detroit. Keith Craft did the last round of engine work.

We came back from Texas when your dad was talking to mine. We went to the Motorplex.

Rory, you are who I think I got the picture from. I was just now putting that all together. lol

Is it possible that one, if not two, of these Fairlanes were from a racing family out here in the western United States?

I think one of the green Swedish cars is Jim Waldo's old Fairlane.

Where is the Wheel City SS sedan now? Years after Pete Kossen sold it i found the car by driving every street in the area i'd heard it was in. I didn't have enough money so i told a friend and he bought it. He painted it green and sold it to RJ Sledge around 1990.
