For Sale: 1956 Ford Fairlane in Lavergne, Tennessee

With its thoughtful full two-tone style, upgraded A/C interior, and a well-done 302 small block upgrade, this 1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria is the right mix of true classic and a truly appealing cruiser.

When you want a cool-looking custom, the Victoria is the right place to start. Its pillarless hardtop design with wraparound rear window gives it both a sporty and sophisticated look. And speaking of refines, the full-length trim is a terrific premium touch. It has a stylish dip in the doors, and it provides a distinctive divider for the red and white. You have some of the best styling of the time with wraparound chrome bumpers, Ford family crest badging, and tail lights inspired by the Thunderbird. There's also plenty of custom style here, too. You know this was built to be a more powerful drive with the bright dual exhaust tips, tinted windows, and 15-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.

More of the red and white two-tone continues inside. And just like the exterior, you'll appreciate the vintage details. After all, the tuck and roll inserts in both rows of seats is pure 1950s cruiser cool. Good carpeting, a smooth dash, and an excellent white headliner w/working dome light give it a quality feel. And the cold-bowing air conditioning means you can stay comfortable when you take down all the windows on this pillarless hardtop and go for a drive. And this one was really made to be a great cruiser. That's why you have a movable cup holder center console, a vintage-style upgraded steering wheel, and a tilt column. And the vintage gauge housing now holds upgraded readouts, including a tach and large speedo.

It's nice to see a Ford get upgraded in the engine bay, while still keeping the power in the blue oval family. Under the hood is a 302 cubic-inch V8 that's been given plenty of nice features, including an upgraded Edelbrock setup with finned valve covers, a matching air grabber, and AVS2 four-barrel carburetor underneath. It also has good supporting components, like upgraded pulleys w/serpentine belt setup and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. The V8 makes a nice tune out of the Borla dual exhaust, and when you really want to bring the thunder, there's also a remote for electric cutoffs. Add in power rack & pinion steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, power brakes with front discs, and wide modern tires, and you have a complete and attractive cruising package.

This classic hardtop brings together the right features, the right power, and the right price. So you know it's right for you. Call today!!!
