1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Sunliner Convertible - 312 V8 -
Cruise-O-Matic - Beautiful Driver This is a 1957 Ford Fairlane 500
Sunliner Convertible equipped with the 312 V8 and 2-speed
Cruise-O-Matic transmission. It came out of an older gentleman's
collection in Beaumont, Texas, and was driven very little before I
purchased it. Since owning it, I've gone through the brake system
and handled the maintenance needed to make it a dependable cruiser.
This is not a show car, but it's a very nice driver that gets
compliments and photos everywhere it goes. Chrome is excellent,
paint is fresh, and it's a great car for cruise-ins, weekend
drives, and local events. Highlights 312 V8 engine 2-speed

that's reliable and fun, but not a concours car Story Bought out of
an older man's collection in Beaumont, Texas after he passed. The
car had been stored and driven very little. Since then, I've
refreshed the brakes, updated several components, and kept it as a
dependable cruiser.
