Hello Eugy!
"Der Vorfahre" would be "the ancestor", maskulin and "die Vorfahrin" the female version of it.
"Das Vorfahren" is a combination of the präposition "vor" and "fahren", so a "Substantivierung" of the verb "vorfahren".
It's naming the process of driving "vor", so is for example used like this:
"Der Mann ist mit seinem Audi beim Hotel vorgefahren."
I hope that clears things up!
Greetings!
Leo
