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.
Presented with approximately 89,973 miles, this 1959 Ford Fairlane 500 Galaxie represents the height of Ford’s late-1950s styling, combining dramatic design details with V8-powered cruising capability. According to the seller, the current build has approximately 2,000 miles, adding to its appeal as a classic Ford that has received attention while maintaining its original character. Finished in the striking Coral Sunset and Colonial White color combination, this Fairlane 500 Galaxie captures the era’s fascination with bold colors, chrome accents, and elegant road-going presence. Equipped with the desirable 352ci Interceptor V8, Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission, power steering, and power booster, this classic Ford offers a blend of period-correct style and comfortable drivability. Additional highlights include chrome fender skirts, stainless steel exterior trim, detailed underbody presentation, and a reupholstered interior that complements its iconic 1950s character.
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. Showing 11,364 miles on the odometer, this Fairlane blends vintage styling with thoughtful upgrades that enhance both reliability and driving enjoyment. The GTA engine—originally associated with Ford’s performance-oriented Fairlane GT/A models—adds an extra layer of appeal, delivering strong torque and smooth power delivery. Finished in light blue metallic over a blue interior with a white convertible top, this car embodies the spirit of effortless cruising with a performance edge.
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.
This 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is a compact, old-school street rod built around one of hot rodding’s most recognizable early-Ford shapes. Showing approximately 5,979 miles, it combines a lightweight roadster body with V8 power, an automatic transmission, and a distinctly traditional custom presentation. The black exterior is contrasted by purple pinstriping and flame graphics, while extensive chrome and polished engine hardware gives the exposed powerplant plenty of visual impact. With its staggered wheel setup, side-exit exhaust, custom aluminum dashboard, and vivid purple accents, this Model T delivers the stripped-down, mechanical personality enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod.
This 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod takes one of Ford’s most iconic early body styles and turns it into something far more rowdy. Showing just 470 miles, it blends upright Model A proportions with the ingredients enthusiasts expect from a traditional street rod: a 302ci V8, 4-barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, aftermarket suspension, and a custom exhaust system. What really gives this car its personality, though, is the visual treatment. The Lilac Metallic finish, custom devil and flame airbrush artwork, black vinyl roof, chrome trim, and polished wheels make it the kind of hot rod that stands out immediately rather than trying to imitate a factory restoration. The rebuilt title brand should also be noted.
Few cars capture the spirit of American hot rodding quite like a 1933 Ford three-window coupe, and this 1933 Ford Model 40 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod leans fully into that tradition. Showing just 4,563 miles, it pairs the unmistakable proportions of a prewar Ford coupe with a seriously upgraded mechanical package centered around a 383ci stroker V8. Holley Sniper EFI, a 200-4R 4-speed automatic, four-wheel disc brakes, Vintage Air climate control, aftermarket instrumentation, and a fully reworked interior make this much more than a nostalgia piece. Finished in a custom Firehouse Red paint job, it has the stance, sound, and visual drama enthusiasts expect from a proper hot rod, while incorporating the kind of upgrades that make it far easier to enjoy beyond the show field.
This 1992 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 takes the lightweight Fox-body formula and turns the performance dial well past stock. Showing approximately 80,783 miles, this example is powered by a 347ci stroker V8 with Edelbrock electronic fuel injection and backed by a Tremec 3550 5-speed manual transmission. Twisted Wedge cylinder heads, upgraded valve springs, an Edelbrock EFI intake manifold, heavy-duty water pump, and aftermarket engine-management components all point to a build centered on stronger naturally aspirated performance. Add in SVE wheels, Nitto NT555 tires, upgraded brakes, and an aftermarket exhaust, and this LX becomes the kind of modified Fox-body that speaks directly to Mustang enthusiasts.
This 1967 Citroën 2CV Coupe is a charming example of one of France’s most recognizable postwar automobiles, a car designed around simplicity, economy, and clever engineering rather than excess. Showing approximately 43,099 miles, this example is finished in Bleu Mésange over a Tissu Bleu cloth interior and retains the unmistakable 2CV formula with a 425cc air-cooled flat-2, 4-speed manual transmission, and front-wheel drive. Its full-length roll-back fabric roof, unconventional shifter, and supple interconnected suspension give it the kind of personality that has made the 2CV such an enduring favorite among European-car enthusiasts.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.
