Named after Fair Lane, the sprawling, Dearborn-based estate of Henry Ford, the Ford Fairlane represented the automaker’s full-size offering from 1955 to 1970. The name was seen afterward, as well, on Australian-market cars. In 1957, the Fairlane entered its second generation after just two years of production. Yes, model cycles were very short in those days. That’s what we’re offering for sale here: a second-generation 1958 Ford Custom 300 2-Door sedan, hailing from the Fairlane family that’s received plenty of new parts to bring it up to excellent condition. A look at our photos will show that this car has been meticulously restored, making it a buy-and-drive classic.

The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.
The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.
The fourteenth generation of the Ford F-150 was introduced in 2021, and remains the current one on sale. There are several variants, including the Raptor and Lightning, but this particular truck is a little different. You see, it’s a 2021 Ford F-150 Shelby which, as the last part of its name suggests, has received tuning by Shelby American, the company founded by the legendary Carroll Shelby. Yes, Shelby didn’t only tune Mustangs; he turned his attention to other Ford models, and after his demise, the company continues that fine legacy. So, just how potent is this machine? Well, how does 950 horsepower grab you? We’d say that it grabs you very strongly indeed. If you’d like to own this fearsome beast, it’s up for sale in Torrance with a mere 47,521 miles on it so far.
