For Sale: 1956 Ford Fairlane in Lutz, Florida

This 1956 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria has sleek paint, an A/C interior, and an overall terrific cruiser style. And at the heart of it all is a fuel-injected 302ci V8 upgrade that makes this one the ultimate in classic car fun.

When you want a cool custom cruiser, the Crown Victoria is the right place to start. It's easy to distinguish these as the highest level of the already top-of-the-line Ford Fairlanes. Only these have the encompassing brightwork that visually separates the front and rear passenger compartments. This one goes the extra mile to show off this distinctive feature by making sure this is an award-worthy shine on the full brightwork package. And since the chrome is brilliant, the paint needs to match the quality. The burgundy paint was the ideal choice because it gives you a bold red but with deeper tones so that the brightwork can really be noticed against it. And the smooth shine showing off excellent body panels lets you know this is the product of a thoughtful restoration. And while you will see very few signs of this car ever hitting the road, you also know it was made for driving. The bright dual exhaust tips and classic Cragar SS wheels hint at the street machine within.

The exterior burgundy returns inside on the carpeting, seatbelts, and door trim. But what really steals the show here is the upgraded white. The seats, door panels, parcel shelf, and even the dash have been upgraded to a classic tuck and roll pattern that is pure classic custom cool. There's a nice vintage style in details like the working dome light and Ford family crest in the classic steering wheels. But there are also upgrades to make this a better driver. Some are for comfort, like the cup holders and cold-blowing air conditioning. And pieces like the auxiliary gauge trio and EFI touchscreen controller remind you of the extra power under the hood.

It's nice to see a Ford get upgraded in the engine bay while still keeping the power in the blue oval family. This is a 302 cubic-inch V8, and it now benefits from added power and consistency with a FAST electronic fuel injection system. It also has good supporting components, like an aluminum radiator with electric fan and the battery moved to the trunk for better weight distribution. This V8 fires up readily, and the Hedman ceramic-coated headers add power while also helping give the dual exhaust a sweet tune. More than just powerful, this one loves being an overall cruiser. That's why there's a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes w/front discs.

This is the classic Crown Victoria that has been upgraded for more shine, style, and power. So you know it's right for you. Call today!!!
