For Sale: 1957 Ford Fairlane in Lithia Springs, Georgia

This 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Town Victoria is a big V8 two-tone hardtop with such a cool cruiser attitude that you just know there's a ton of potential within its value price.

This is the ultimate classic for many of us. 1957 has some of the best styling elements going for it with the outstretched headlights, full-width grille, jet-inspired tail lights, and wraparound glass both front and rear. The body tag tells us this is wearing its correct Starmist Blue and Colonial White two-tone, and the full-length trim line provides a clear separation while also highlighting the sporty kick-up that starts the tailfin in the rear door. There's more intricate brightwork with the bumpers. The front one is a big chrome king that includes a stylish overrider, and the rear one has been extended to accommodate a continental kit. Fender skirts, whitewalls, and the seriously cool pillarless hardtop sedan profile complete a classic cruiser attitude. But there's also something more going on here. Subtle upgrades like crystal-clear headlights and large dual exhaust tips tell the story of an updated car. It's not an over-the-top hot rod, but this has been maintained to be a true driver. It was even on the 2019 Power Tour! So as you look over this whole car, you'll see there is room for improvement and personalization. That's why this has a value price. But overall, it's great to see such a complete and useful example from such a pivotal model year.

The interior has the appeal of a big classic full-size sedan where everyone has acres of room. It carries its correct two-tone style that harmonizes nicely with the exterior. So it's another great reason to leave the windows down on this pillarless hardtop. You'll even appreciate an intricate style everywhere from the door panels to the steering wheel. You may be thinking about changing or restoring some details, but don't forget that this one likes to be a cruiser from day one. That's why you have key upgrades like an auxiliary gauge trio and a retro-style AM/FM stereo that even features Bluetooth.

Under the hood is Ford's hardy and powerful 292 cubic-inch Ford V8, and it's presented quite nicely for this Fairlane. Plus, you've got the right features for a solid cruiser, like a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an updated radiator, and an Optima battery. The motor fires up with an eagerness that reminds you this is a road trip king. And while this one does want you to feel the road in an old-school way, the three-speed automatic transmission makes for a proper driver.

Complete with owner's manual, this is the cool and classic hardtop sedan that loves to cruise and even leaves room in your budget for a personal touch. Call today!!!
