If you’ve been looking for a clean, classic ’57 Ford that’s ready to cruise and show, this 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 2-door hardtop deserves a look. It wears a timeless two-tone red/white finish with a matching red/white interior, and it presents extremely well. I regularly participate in car shows, where it has routinely earned “Best Ford” and “Best in Show” honors.
Power comes from a 312 cubic-inch “Thunderbird Special” V8, upgraded with a new 600 CFM Holley 4-barrel carburetor, backed by an automatic 2-speed transmission. A 12-volt conversion was completed during the late-1970s restoration.
This Fairlane is driven regularly and responsibly—approximately 1,000 miles per year—and has been driven 50+ miles at highway speed, where it runs and drives great. The car is always stored indoors in a fully enclosed garage year-round. 65,373 original miles. All gauges, lights, wipers, and horn work well with no issues.
Asking $41,995 or best offer. Serious buyers only.
Pre-purchase inspections are welcome and encouraged.
