| About Our Restorations, Pricing and Quotes policy: We keep our price structure simple, labor plus parts & material. In most cases we will not bid a job, however, we will offer the best estimate we can but it will only be an estimate. When you give a firm bid for doing any type of repair or service on this type of equipment, you must have a built in cushion to cover any unexpected problems that might arise. If no problems arise, the bidder comes out ahead and the customer loses, however, if major problems arise the bidder loses. Our policy is made to be fair for both parties concerned. After a project has been started and if any unexpected major problems should arise, the customer is always notified before work continues. We do our best to keep our customers informed. When we go to settle an account, we do not like unexpected surprises just as much as the customer. We can/will stop the restoration process at any time per the customers request. Should unexpected hardships occur, you are not locked in to finish to completion any project that is underway. We recognize that daily life brings unexpected obstacles along the way. We can delay or stop our services at your request should you find yourself in a difficult spot. |

| More 1969 Ford Fairlane 500 Fastback information Production: The Fairlane 500 fastback GT was included in the Torino line. 1969 Production: Torino GT 2D Fastback: 61,319 Engine Options: For 1969, Ford dropped the 289, making the two-barrel F-code 302 again standard in the Torino GT, but now with 220hp. The 351 that Ford introduced that year became the optional small-block V-8, in either two-barrel (250hp, H-code) or four-barrel (290hp, M-code) form (Windsor, not Cleveland). Big-blocks came in the guise of the 320hp Y-code 390, the 335hp Q-code non-Ram Air 428 Cobra Jet and the 360hp R-code Ram Air 428. Ford did not offer the Boss 302 or the Boss 429 in 1969 Torino GTs. |
| More 1969 Ford Fairlane 500 Fastback information Production: The Fairlane 500 fastback GT was included in the Torino line. 1969 Production: Torino GT 2D Fastback: 61,319 Transmissions: For 1969, Ford eliminated the three-speed manual transmission; the small-blocks retained the C-4 and Toploader; and the big-blocks kept the C-6 and Toploader. However, the 351 used the FMX cast-iron transmission instead of the C-4. Air Conditioning? Most Ford literature claims that the company never installed air conditioning on cars with a manual transmission because the higher rpms associated with manual transmissions could lead to thrown belts. Ford's records show that it did install air conditioning and manual transmissions on about 100 cars. |
