The 1967 Ford Fairlane GTA stands as a prime example of Ford's mid-size muscle car era, blending bold design, big-block power, and a touch of elegance. As the automatic-transmission counterpart to the Fairlane GT, the GTA was aimed at delivering high performance with everyday drivability. The beautifully restored example you see here is a striking black-on-red machine, powered by a potent 390 V8 and finished with meticulous attention to detail-ideal for collectors who demand both show-worthy presentation and classic muscle pedigree. Before we dive into the details of this stunning Ford's exterior, interior, and powertrain, we'd like to introduce ourselves.

This Fairlane GTA makes a commanding impression from the very first glance. The body is finished in deep, high-gloss black paint that shows off crisp panel alignment and a mirror-like shine across every surface. Accented by a white side stripe and GTA badging, the exterior pays perfect homage to Ford's muscle era. Chrome bumpers, rocker trim, grille, and door handles are all brilliantly polished and correct for the period. The "390" callout on the hood proudly announces what lies beneath, while a set of Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in redline tires enhance the car's aggressive, factory-inspired stance. Even small details-like the dual sport mirrors and clean trunk compartment with plaid mat-show that this car was restored with pride and precision.
Inside, this GTA stuns with a bold red and silver two-tone interior that perfectly complements the car's aggressive exterior. Bucket seats are upholstered in beautifully finished vinyl with horizontal pleats and silver inserts, matched by red door panels, red loop carpeting, and a red dashboard. A wood-rimmed sport steering wheel sits in front of a clean factory-style gauge cluster, while the floor console houses the correct automatic shifter. The interior condition appears exceptionally clean and correct, with excellent headliner fitment, smooth dash pad, and preserved trim throughout. This cabin isn't just nostalgic-it's vibrant, comfortable, and presentation-ready. With all the headlights, signals, and gauges working this interior is ready to cruise and enjoy.
Under the hood, you'll find a well-detailed Ford FE-series 390 cubic inch V8, believed to be period-correct for the car, topped with a chrome air cleaner and painted factory-style blue valve covers. The engine bay is exceptionally clean and well-sorted, showing attention to detail in wire routing, brackets, and painted surfaces. Backing the big-block is a strong-shifting automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels through a stout Ford 9-inch rear end. The car also features power front disc brakes enhancing drivability while maintaining the car's original muscle character. The underside is solid and clean-another testament to the car's restoration quality.
This 1967 Ford Fairlane GTA is a standout in every respect-presenting the perfect blend of big-block performance, sharp presentation, and correct trim details.
