Background Story of this 1957 Ford Fairlane

Overview of 1957 Ford Fairlane For Sale by Owner

The Ford Fairlane is a legendary name in the Blue Oval’s history, and fittingly, it takes its name from Henry Ford’s famed estate in Dearborn, Michigan. Introduced in 1955, the Fairlane spawned a variety of trims and offshoots—including the Crown Victoria and the 500—that helped define the mid-century American driving experience. While the Fairlane name was also used in overseas models, nothing beats the charm of an original American-built Sunliner like this one. Presented here is a beautifully restored 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Sunliner, located in Holtsville, New York, with just over 7,000 miles since its restoration. Among its standout features are a Continental Kit, Searchlight Mirrors, and a glove box signed by Gale Halderman—the man who not only worked on redesigning the ’57 Fairlane but also went on to pen the first-generation Mustang. According to the seller, full restoration documentation and photos are available upon request.

Exterior and Interior

The two-tone Coral Sand and Colonial White paint scheme is quintessentially Fifties, capturing the optimistic, pastel-hued spirit of the era. Complementing its retro colorway are rear fender skirts, dual Searchlight Mirrors, and a Continental Kit that moves the spare tire outside the trunk—freeing up cargo space while enhancing vintage flair. A custom car cover is also included to help preserve the vehicle’s beauty when parked. Inside, the Sunliner offers a clean and classic cabin in black and white vinyl, with black carpeting completing the theme. The dashboard features Ford’s original Town & Country radio for authenticity, while a Bluetooth-capable modern audio system has been added to ensure compatibility with today’s media. Power windows round out the list of period-correct luxury features.

Engine

Under the hood lies Ford’s trusted 312ci Y-Block V8, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. Power is sent to the rear wheels, as expected, and the car delivers a relaxed, confident driving experience that perfectly suits its era and style.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$47,500
SOLD

The 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible is a standout example of classic American open-top motoring, elevated by the presence of a desirable GTA-spec 390ci V8.

1955 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$18,800
SOLD

Named after Henry Ford’s estate in Dearborn, the Ford Fairlane is one of the Blue Oval’s best-known cars from the Fifties and Sixties. Today’s 1955 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan is from the very first year of production of the first generation, making it a rather historically significant classic. With its two-tone red and white color theme, four-door sedan body and 292ci Y-Block V8, the car packs the 3-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic gearbox, a car cover, and an aftermarket radio with Bluetooth. Otherwise, it’s pretty true to original form and makes for a fine classic to acquire. The car has got 73,671 miles on the clock and hails from Hollywood.

Named after Fair Lane, Henry Ford’s sprawling and opulent Dearborn mansion, the Ford Fairlane name has been around for the Americas, as well as Australia over time.

2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$32,999

The 2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1 marked the triumphant return of one of Ford’s most celebrated performance nameplates, blending retro-inspired styling cues with modern SN95 performance engineering. Showing just 13,375 miles, this Mach 1 Premium Coupe represents an exceptionally low-mileage example of a model that has become increasingly appreciated by Mustang enthusiasts. Finished in Dark Shadow Gray over a Dark Charcoal interior, this car perfectly captures the understated menace that made the Mach 1 so appealing when new. Positioned between the Mustang GT and SVT Cobra, the Mach 1 offered a unique combination of naturally aspirated V8 performance, everyday drivability, and heritage-inspired styling, making it one of the most well-rounded modern Mustangs of its era.

1924 Ford Model T - Passenger side

1924 Ford Model T Touring

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$14,999

The Ford Model T is quite simply one of the most important automobiles ever built, credited with transforming motoring from a luxury reserved for the wealthy into something accessible to ordinary Americans. By 1924, the Model T had already cemented its place in automotive history, with Ford’s moving assembly line production revolutionizing manufacturing worldwide. This 1924 Ford Model T Touring represents that legacy in one of the marque’s most recognizable body styles, offering open-air motoring exactly as drivers would have experienced it a century ago. Showing TMU (true mileage unknown), this example is presented in classic Red and Black with a Black folding soft top, preserving the unmistakable character of early American transportation. For collectors seeking a true pre-war automotive artifact, few vehicles offer the same historical significance or conversation-starting presence as a Model T.

1998 Ford Mustang Saleen S281

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,900

The late 1990s were a defining era for specialty Mustangs, and few names carried more weight than Saleen. Showing just 24,423 miles, this 1998 Saleen S281 Coupe is already a highly desirable piece of American performance history—but what makes this example especially compelling is its reported 1-of-1 Saleen build configuration, elevating its collectibility well beyond that of a standard S281. Built during a period when Saleen transformed factory Mustangs into sharper, more exclusive performance machines, this coupe combines the raw analog charm of the SN95 platform with authentic Saleen engineering and unmistakable styling. Finished in black over black and equipped with the enthusiast-favorite 5-speed manual, this is exactly the kind of specialty Mustang collectors seek as appreciation for 1990s performance icons continues to grow.

1970 Volkswagen Beetle - Passenger side

1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod LT1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$55,000

There are custom builds, and then there are machines like this. This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod shows just 710 miles and represents a complete reimagination of one of the most recognizable economy cars ever built. Far removed from its humble air-cooled origins, this Beetle has been transformed into a full custom hot rod powered by a Chevrolet LT1 V8, riding on a tubular chassis, and engineered with hardware more commonly found in purpose-built performance cars. From its chopped roofline and wide rear stance to its remote-controlled suicide doors and bespoke interior, this is a build created to command attention wherever it goes. The title carries a rebuilt designation noted in title history, which should be fully disclosed, but this vehicle’s appeal lies in its craftsmanship, engineering ambition, and sheer uniqueness rather than originality.

1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$39,899

Few cars symbolize the birth of the American pony car quite like the first-generation Ford Mustang. Introduced in 1964, the Mustang became an instant cultural phenomenon, redefining the performance car landscape with its stylish design, approachable pricing, and broad personalization options. This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible captures that spirit beautifully, showing approximately 7,818 miles and finished in iconic Poppy Red over a matching Red interior with a crisp White convertible soft top. Equipped with V8 power, the desirable Pony Interior Package, styled steel wheels, and modern Bluetooth audio functionality, this Mustang blends timeless 1960s charm with upgrades that make it even more enjoyable to drive and own today.

1977 Chevrolet Corvette - Passenger side

1977 Chevrolet Corvette LT1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,990

The C3-generation Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the most iconic eras in American sports car history, instantly recognizable for its dramatic curves, long hood, and unmistakable road presence. By 1977, Chevrolet had refined the formula into a more comfortable grand touring machine while preserving the unmistakable V8-powered character that made the Corvette a household name. This 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, showing approximately 65,005 miles, presents as an appealing example that combines classic styling with thoughtful performance-minded upgrades. Finished in eye-catching Light Blue over a Light Buckskin interior, this Corvette offers far more than stock appeal thanks to a replacement 350ci LT1 V8, upgraded 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission installed in 2023, and a newer dual exhaust system. For buyers seeking a C3 that retains its vintage charm while benefiting from modern drivability enhancements, this Corvette strikes a compelling balance between nostalgia and usability.
