| “I owned this car since 2002 - It has been running until I went to restore and then had to have brain surgery. It has been sitting. This is a project. I have all the trim in the trunk. Have the original radio. The title is clean, currently registered with DMV as Non-Op. With new battery, some carburetor tinkering and wires it will start. There is a spare tire, currently one tire needs air, other tire needs to be replaces with spare. Two tires are in great shape. Only thing missing is the front signal lens-chrome lens frames are on car, only missing the plastic lens. This as is. This is a project.” |

Vehicle description
The Ford Fairlane is an automobile model that was sold between 1955 and 1970 by Ford in North America. The name is derived from Henry Ford "s estate, Fair Lane , near Dearborn, Michigan .
First generation (1955-1956) For the 1955 model year the Fairlane name replaced the Crestline as Ford"s premier full-sized offering. Six different body styles were offered, including the Crown Victoria Skyliner with a tinted, transparent plastic roof, the regular Crown Victoria coupe with lots of stainless steel trim, a convertible Sunliner, the Victoria hardtop coupe, and traditional sedans. All featured the trademark stainless-steel "Fairlane stripe" on the side. Power options were a 223 cu in (3.7 L) straight-6 engine and a 272 cu in (4.5 L) V8 . The 292 cu in (4.8 L) Y-block was offered as an option and was called the Thunderbird V-8. I HAVE OWNED THIS FORD FAIRLANE TOWN SEDAN SINCE 2001. I USED TO DRIVE MY KIDS AROUND MALIBU TO GO SURFING IN IT. LATER I STARTED TO RESTORE THE CAR, BUT FELL ILL AND NEVER GOT TO FINISH IT. WHEN I PARKED THE CAR IT RAN. IT HAS BEEN SITTING. I KNOW THAT IT WILL START WITH A NEW BATTERY AND SOME CARBURETOR TINKERING. THIS A PROJECT CAR. SELLING IT AS IS. IT HAS CLEAN TITLE. I PUT IT ON NO-OP JUST BEFORE MY SURGERY.
THE ORIGINAL RADIO AND ALL ORIGINAL CHROME TRIM IS IN THE TRUNK. CAR HAS BOTH BACK & FRONT SEATS. THE ORIGINAL PAINT IS WHITE AND YELLOW. I ATTACHED A PHOTO.
