I remember that Plymouth dealership!  There were a bunch of dealerships on South Colorado Blvd back in the day.  There are only a few import places left there today.

Jack's family was in the car business. His father Fo Farland and uncle Temple Buell Jr. owned a Chrysler dealership in Denver, Colorado; Farland-Buell Chrysler Plymouth. Jack started working at the dealership after school and on weekends at age of 12. In addition to Chrysler, Fo and Temple were dealers for Ferrari from 1967-1969 and they collected antique cars. Jack was exposed to rare cars from Europe as well as the muscle cars we all love today. What could be a better education than working on an old Chrysler one day and a Ferrari or Maserati the next.

That tradition is carried on today. Take a tour of the shop and you'll find quite a mix of unusual cars from all over the world. Jack enjoys the challenge of learning about each car and figuring out how to make it better than new.

Jack's uncle Temple Buell Jr. was a noted race team owner and driver in the mid fifties. His drivers included Carroll Shelby, Masten Gregory, Phil Hill, Juan Fango and others. He campaigned Ferrari and Maserati sports and open wheel cars. Jack got to meet many of these drivers as a young man while hanging around with his uncle. "I got to sit in the pits and watch Carroll Shelby manage his team of Shelby Mustangs to a 1-2-3 finish at the Continental Divide Raceway. After the race Shelby came to dinner at our house and still remembers my mother's lasagna. That type of excitement gets in your blood and never leaves. I love to create excitement for my customers and get great satisfaction seeing them enjoy their cars."


looks like they are working on a '70 Cuda vert! http://archives.farlandcars.com/gallery/70-Cuda-Convertible/70-Cuda-Convertible.html

I'm also digging this '71 Charger RT survivor http://archives.farlandcars.com/gallery/71-Dodge-Charger-RT/71-Dodge-Charger-RT.html


might be fun to contact them with info on your Cuda

Hi, and thanks for your input & suggestions.  I have already contacted several family members including Jack, and they were very nice to talk to, and told stories mainly about the Ferrari portion of the dealership.  Unfortunately, I was told that they had no photographs related to the dealership... I even tried a little  ... still nothing.

Here is a much longer ride in the `Cuda with the onboard cam...

[RUNCHARGER]

Ha, ha: Another day waiting for Hemi parts.

[blown motor]

Stripped all the masking off yesterday's paint touch up, re-installed thermostat housing, hoses, etc and put the antifreeze back in.

Last few days

[Cuda Cody]

Nice welds on the door!!!   

[A.Gramz]

Thanks the wire size change helped a lot.

Continued repairing my broken grill and headlight bezels with Plastex.  Also started taking a wire wheel to my front bumper brackets to remove 47 years of rust, grim and old paint.  Decided I need to rebuild my compressor motor before trying to do more.  It takes forever to rebuild pressure after using the air grinder with the wire wheel.
