Named after Henry Ford's sprawling Dearborn estate, the Fairlane started life as Ford's full-size automobile in 1955. The Fairlane was well-received and available in several body styles, including two- and four-door sedans, hardtops, station wagons, convertibles, and even a coupe utility for the Australian market. Today, well-kept first-generation examples such as this 1955 Ford Fairland 2-Door Club Sedan are sought after by discerning collectors. This particular car reportedly received a repaint approximately 15 years ago. The current owner also discloses that it comes with a numbers-matching motor and transmission but lacks documentation to prove it. Never mind, the condition and sheer classic value of this car more than compensate. Let's see what it offers.
Two-tone pastel hues, such as the white and blue paint job on this 1955 Ford Fairland 2-Door Club Sedan, represent peak Fifties Americana. The world was moving away from the dark colors of the Forties, and color palettes exploded with dizzying arrays of options for buyers. Sitting pretty on its white-striped tires, this car looks absolutely stunning. Framed by chrome front and rear bumpers, you'll also find plenty of chrome detailing around it, including on the leading edge of the rear wheel slats. Badging appears to be present and correct, and overall, this is as complete a classic as one could expect. Inside, there's a blue and gray-themed interior with bench seating for up to five occupants. The dash presents itself in the same blue hue as the exterior and hosts the instrumentation plus a push-button radio. The car has the Ford Magic Aire ventilation system for heating the cabin on cold days. The current owner tells us that there's no air conditioning, so it's up to the new owner to install a system if required. A neat touch of distinctiveness is the dice-tipped door lock on the edge of each window sill. A peek into the trunk reveals a similarly well-kept area with the spare wheel resting in its storage area.
This 1955 Ford Fairland 2-Door Club Sedan is powered by a 272ci Y-block V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and an oil bath air cleaner. Developing 164hp, the engine channels its power to the rear wheels through a 3-speed '3-On-The-Tree' column-shifted manual transmission. The current owner tells us that the engine has received a recent tune-up, and the car sports a new battery.

Driving a 50s American classic is an experience; the roar of that all-American V8 and iconic styling is one to adore and experience, the 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Hardtop we have today ensures your behind the wheel of a true American classic and enjoy time passing by.
Before the muscle and performance of the 60s, things were slow and calm in the world of American motors, land yachts with luxury and class graced the scene, and while they were a sight to behold, they never really had any performance to shock and awe. The 50s legend we have today looks like this 1958 Ford Fairlane Coupe; it's not another luxury land yacht and sports a surprise underneath its hood, making it a comfortable cruiser that stings.
The original Mustang Boss 302 of the late 1960’s is an iconic muscle car in every respect. So, when Ford decided to resurrect the idea in 2012, the bar was already set high. Many feared the reincarnated Boss 302 would be nothing more than a marketing exercise that evoked memories of the original through visual upgrades and nothing more. However, the fears were put to rest when the car was unveiled. While visually, the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 does differ from the GT500, there was so much more going on under the skin. The result was almost universally praised by the press, with an extra 32 horsepower from the engine, a completely revised approach to the car’s suspension, and improved brakes. If that wasn’t enough, the Boss 302 presented today has gone under some significant modifications by GALPIN Auto Sports. With a host of upgrades, and some eliminations, this Mustang is set as a proper track car with a gutted interior and a new 5.2L V8 engine that features other functional upgrades that could be the perfect track-weapon in your garage.
The 1957 Ford Thunderbird was an icon the moment it left its factory floors; it had iconic '50s styling that was jaw-dropping, the luxury that most '50s American motors are renowned for, and performance that was supposed to take on the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette. Present today is not just any first-generation Ford Thunderbird, but this sought-after 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code. Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.
You could say that having a Ford Bronco is like having a Labrador retriever. Everybody is happy to see it, and it is welcome anywhere. Born to butt heads against the Jeep CJ, the Ford Bronco is your ticket to enter any auto show, and people will praise it with a shared passion for classic autos. And it's not hard to see the appeal. You can take its roof off and let the wind and sun come in freely. That is what this 1971 Ford Bronco 4WD Sport Utility is all about. It is a classic off-roader with a more potent engine than standard and includes contemporary features that make it a delight to drive. Located in Tennessee, it is reported to be in good condition and awaits its next ardent owner.
By its third generation, the Chevrolet Corvette was already a well-known icon within the landscape of American motoring. The C3, introduced in 1968, retained its sleek and muscular appearance, adding a few more curves to the design, with a bit of European flair injected into its philosophy. It was still distantly Corvette. The C3 was also the first model to introduce a Targa top to its coupe models, a feature that would remain a popular element that reappeared over the ensuing generations. The C3 was also the first Corvette to serve as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500—the first in a long tradition of Corvette pace cars that would appear for the iconic race. Our featured car is a 1975 Chevrolet Corvette with the 350ci V8 engine mated to an automatic transmission, and features a few choice performance upgrades.
When the 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe was first introduced, their commercials referred to it as a completely new look that time can not wash away. Sure enough, even after a number of decades, the Chevrolet Impala remains a car that is accepted to be beautiful from every angle. Another interesting fact about the 1965 model year is that they improved the Jet Smooth Ride with a new chassis and suspension design and made it standard equipment in every model. To this day, its ability to make you feel like you are hovering above potholes is said to surpass the comfort of contemporary city cars. This 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe, with a recently installed engine, bears only 1,000 miles on the clock.
There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure. This 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS restomod has undergone an extensive restoration and features a host of new parts and upgraded tech. It could be yours, with just 2,500 miles recorded since the restoration was completed.
