Price Guide: $3,500 - $6,000
1989 Ford Fairlane NA II. Sage green. 4.0-litre inline six-cylinder petrol, 4-speed automatic, rear wheel drive. 89,787km on the odometer. 5 seats.
Description
The N-Series Fairlane, launched in 1988 alongside the EA Falcon, represented Ford Australia's flagship luxury sedan before the era of imported prestige competition. The NA II sits in a narrow window of late-1980s Australian motoring history: full-size, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and a 4.0-litre inline six that will outlast almost anything built since. This example is unmodified and carries 89,787km on a digital instrument cluster that reads correctly, supported by the relatively moderate distance for a 35-year-old car. The 4.0-litre OHC six with automatic transmission is all-original, presenting as mechanically unmolested in the engine bay with no evidence of major intervention.
The exterior presents in sage green with consistent colour across all panels and a body that sits straight. As an unrestored example the paint has aged, with fading and some surface oxidation across the bonnet and upper panels. The body moulding shows wear and the front bumper lower section has some scuffing and minor rust staining, consistent with 35 years on Australian roads. Steel wheels with original Ford hub caps are fitted, along with Pirelli tyres. The factory alloy wheels noted on the compliance spec are absent from this example. Inside, the grey velour interior is all original, including the characteristic grey herringbone door cards and the NA Fairlane's fold-down centre armrest. The instrument cluster is fully functional and legible, which is notable for these digital hybrid units. The floor-mounted auto shifter and the rotary HVAC controls are original and intact. The boot is large and largely clean, and the vehicle carries a spare wheel.
Unmodified NA Fairlanes at under 90,000km are harder to find than most people expect. The appeal is simple: genuine rear-wheel-drive Australian iron in completely original form, with the mechanical simplicity that comes from a pre-electronic era Ford inline six. For buyers who want a restorable survivor or a driveable piece of Australian automotive history, this is an honest example at an entry-level price. Comparable unrestored NA Fairlanes in similar condition have recently sold in the $2,500 to $5,000 range depending on condition and completeness.
