For Sale: 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 in Greene, Iowa for sale in Greene, IA
Vehicle Description What we've got here really is unique! On the lot now is a rare 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner, a true survivor of a car complete with the signature beautifully-working power retractable hardtop and what is possibly the original paint! Powered by a 312 C.
I.
Thunderbird Special V8 breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor, this '57 Skyline puts out 245hp, perfect for smooth cruising.
That power gets to the rear end through a 2-speed automatic transmission, shifted right on the column.
This Skyline features a paintjob which could possibly be original, or it could have been restored a long time ago.
Either way, it's got some scuffs around the sides, but overall, the patina really just adds to the unique character of this car! The retractable hardtop works wonderfully, allowing you to have that convertible feeling with the durability of a hardtop.
The interior is near-completely original, with comfortable two-tone green bench seats front and rear.
The undercarriage and floors are rock-solid, with chrome trim and bodylines that are very straight.
Options fitted to this fantastic old Ford include power steering, power brakes, a power retractable hardtop (that works great!), a heater
defroster, a nearly original interior, vent windows, a maneuverable spotlight, seatbelts, and a nice-sounding dual exhaust system.
This '57 Ford runs and drives just fantastic, cruising down the road at speed effortlessly.
All said, if you're looking to find a beautiful old Ford that combines that classic convertible feeling with true '50s Detroit style, then this is your chance to drive it home.
