Ford introduced the Fairlane name as a replacement for Crestline as Ford's premier full-size offering in 1955. Overshadowed by the contemporary Chevrolet Bel Air, the Fairlane was nevertheless successful and considered quite desirable and stylish. In 1957, Ford completed a complete restyling of all its models, bearing only a slight resemblance to previous years. The relatively new Fairlane series, named after the ancestral home of the Ford family, was five inches lower, had a slightly longer wheelbase, and measured nine inches longer overall than its cousins from the 1956 model year. The ’57 Fords also sported elements of the latest styling trend, tailfins, which were marketed as “high-canted fenders.”
