Ford’s Fairlane is a pretty special model, as it’s named after the Henry Ford’s Dearborn estate, Fair Lane. Used across seven generations in America, as well as in Australia, Argentina, and Venezuela, what we’ve got here on sale is a 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 from the sixth generation, that’s a convertible to boot. Bearing a healthy 120,000 miles under its belt, this car sports a matching engine, but not transmission, and has seen some restoration work done on it.
The sixth-generation Fairlane saw things get longer, which this 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 proudly models in its Metallic Blue paint job. The paintjob is reported to be fresh, just two years old. You’ve got some stylish Kragar five-spoke shiny alloy wheels, wrapped with Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS tires that are reportedly like new. A brand new matching dark blue convertible top keeps everyone wrapped up when required, and dual exhausts at the rear allow the Windsor to sing its song. The interior has also seen some restoration, in the shape of a re-upholstering in a combination of light and dark blue leather. You’ve got individually adjustable front seats that form a bench, as well as a rear bench seat make this a very homely cruiser. The driver grips a blue two-spoke steering wheel with chrome horn ring, while a quartet of instrument binnacles ensure communication of all vital information. This car rocks an aftermarket AM/FM cassette player with some interesting aftermarket speakers mounted right behind the rear seat bench, and visible with the top-down, and the original radio is included in the sale for added authenticity.
This 1968 Ford Fairlane 500 is powered by a 289ci Ford Windsor V8 as it rightfully should be, that sends drive to the rear wheels via a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. The transmission has been rebuilt, while the engine has received an Edelbrock manifold, Holley carburetor, and new wiring for the spark plugs. All this makes for a characterful cruiser that can smoothly power along Sunset Boulevard whilst making you and your passengers look and feel good.
