For Sale: 1957 Ford Fairlane in Concord, North Carolina

A few key details transform this 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Victoria Club Coupe into a true street machine kind of custom. The front deletes the badges and simplifies the bumper so that the custom billet grille can take center stage and give this a whole new attitude. The side still keeps the premium trim that's a hallmark of these premium Fords. But it also doesn't get too fussy with a simplified style that includes simple hubcaps, clean lines, and a glossy application of Ford's Colonial White. The rear has the simpler Custom bumper, deleted badging, and deleted tail light trim to look cleaner and sportier. And as you get inside, the full red interior has a clean and bold style. Plus, the aux readouts and tach add to the street machine feeling. But take some extra time looking into the details on this one, because while the attitude is meaner, you can also see how the full package is made to be a nice cruiser.
