Named after Henry Ford’s sprawling estate in Dearborn, Michigan, the Fairlane was Ford’s full-size car between 1955 and 1970. The name would see some use in markets outside America as well, notably Australia, later on. The Fairlane represented the flagship Ford automobile that a buyer could purchase and came with all the expected trimmings and comforts. It was made in a wide array of body styles, including a convertible aptly called the Sunliner. If you’re searching for a first-generation Fairlane, we’ve got this 28,713-mile 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner available right now. It’s a great classic that will only appreciate in value as time goes by.
Sporting a very '50s two-tone red and white color scheme, this 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner represents the peak of '50s motoring. You can see how grand it must have been, sweeping down the boulevards at the time, with its black convertible top up or down, depending on the weather. The car comes with plenty of chrome details, rear wheel spats, and whitewall tires. It’s a true beauty to behold as it rolls along the roads among today’s modern metal. The interior of this 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner is no less attractive in its matching red and white two-tone theme. You’ve got bench seats up front and, in the rear. In its heyday, six or more people will have crammed themselves into this car for a fun-filled drive. Today, it’s better to stick to four adults, tops. The vehicle includes Ford’s Magic Aire heating and ventilation system, as well as a push-button radio. We’re informed that a Bluetooth radio has also been installed. As you’d expect from a full-size car, there’s a suitably capacious trunk, and the spare wheel lives outboard of the trunk, liberating more space.
This 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner is powered by a 272ci Y-Block V8, coupled to a 3-speed automatic transmission. The car is rear-wheel drive. It features front independent suspension with coil springs for better handling. Braking is accomplished by drums at the front and rear, so you’d better plan your braking – there is enough power, but don’t expect it to be instantaneous like today’s ventilated disc affairs.

One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today.

This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, in all its orange glory, comes from an era of resilience. The C3 or third-gen ‘Vette is the longest-running of them all, with a fourteen-year production run between 1968 and 1982. Cars like this one are historically significant because they weathered the most dreaded time in American auto history; the Malaise Era. Even during those times, the Corvette was still the fastest American car available. Now, you can see why, when you take a closer look at this 24,000-mile machine from Island Lake, Illinois. It’s a survivor, a stunning looker, and above all, never compromised on engines by always having a V8 beneath the hood.

Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do.

Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
