Vehicle Description
If you're going to have a classic coupe, then do it right. Start
with a unique single-year style like this 1957 Ford Fairlane. Then
make sure you've got the cool pillarless hardtop Club Victoria
model so that people have an uncluttered view of the slick black
exterior that flows into the two-tone interior. Also add in add
plenty of great driving features, including the overdrive
transmission that comes on the 312 V8.
This sleek black look was made to grab attention. The more modern
clearcoat shine makes a great first impression, which is good
because the '57 Ford is a car that was made to be seen. This was
the only year for the single headlight design with the restyled
body, and its unique appearance gave these coupes a daring face.
But what's really impressive is that all the intricate pieces that
make this car a standout are complete. The '57 redesign brought the
first true tailfin, which is emphasized further thanks to the rear
fender skirts and the Fairlane's exclusive rear trim line. A
full-width grille, mirror-like wraparound chrome bumpers, and
jet-inspire taillights complete this iconic coupe. It even feels
correct right down to the factory-style hubcaps. Plus those
whitewall tires and red wheels are a great hint at what awaits you
inside.
The pillarless Club Victoria hardtop body means everyone gets a
terrific view of the two-tone interior. The sleek white on the
seats give way to the ribbed red inserts for a look that's both
correct and appears custom. The way the colors coordinate on the
carpeting, door panels, headliner, and dash gives you a uniform
presentation that you'll be proud to show off. The view from behind
the wheel is pure 1950s cool. Ford's arching instrument panel is a
great-looking piece of industrial design, complete with plenty of
bright trim to accentuate the dash. And the whole presentation
looks period-correct right down to the heat/defrost sliders. But
this is a true cruising machine, and so you also have a custom
center console that houses nice upgrades like a cup holder and an
AM/FM/cassette stereo.
Underneath the sporty clamshell hood is the correct D-code 312
cubic-inch V8. Topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, it
delivers smooth performance and plenty of torque to move the big
coupe without working very hard. It has that great period-correct
appearance with the large air topper and the correct Thunderbird
Special valve covers. But you might also notice the upgrade to the
aluminum radiator. That's part of why this is such a nice driving
package. Plus, three-speed manual transmission is great for making
the most out of the large V8, but when it's time to settle in for
the long haul, there's also overdrive. Add in a supple ride and a
more modern tread on those whitewalls, and this is a nice
all-around cruising classic.
This one has the right look, power, and features to be your
all-time favorite. That's why you know you have to act fast to take
it home. Call today!!!
