While Fords of the 1950s were considered well-built, they were also seen as conservative. This changed in 1955 when the Ford line of cars once again donned a new body and interior to keep up with the competition and technology. The Ford Fairlane was introduced in 1955 as Ford's full-size model and the name was derived from Henry Ford's ancestral homeland, as well as the name of his mansion located in Dearborn, Michigan. An obvious combination of preservation and restoration, this powder blue Fairlane Victoria has been pepped up with newer paint and interior upholstery, while the engine compartment displays a lovely patina. Fender skirts, Continental kit, wide whitewalls, dual exhaust, AM radio, clock and tissue dispenser only further enhance its appearance. The V-8 and automatic transmission will make this genuine Ford an easy car to love.
