Vehicle Description
1955 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria Glasstop Thought sunroofs were a modern luxury? Well guess again! Even back in 1955,car manufacturers knew being able to let in the sun and look up at the stars without pulling off the whole top was a big selling feature. So they took their Crown Victoria line and made a glass top version that was totally unique. This 1955 Ford Crown Vic is one of those glasstops and came that way originally from the factory. It is painted in a nice Black and White color combination that pairs perfectly with all of the original style chrome and stainless that these cars came with. All of the original style emblems are in place even the Fordomatic on the rear. The car has that total 50s look complete with rear fender skirts and a continental kit. These features were not original from the factory. It wouldn't look right with anything but Wide Whites underneath so that's what you will find wrapped around the original style wheels and hubcaps. Powering the car is the original style 292 V8 motor backed by the Fordomatic transmission. It starts up smoothly and drives well. The motor has that original look including the Ford valve covers and original style Ford oil bath air cleaner. The block, heads, and manifold are all painted Red for a finished out look. The interior is all done in Black with a White and Black two tone dash. The upholstery has been redone on the car so it has a slightly different look from the original stitching, etc. It has a split bench seat up front which is very comfortable and fitted with lap belts. A bench seat is also found in the rear with a foldable center arm rest. All of the interior trim is in place with 2 speakers on the rear package tray. The dash has a nice finish and is kept all originally. The only customization was adding a second gauge pod for oil, amp, and temp gauge below it next to the steering wheel. It even has the original Ford Magic Air heat system. These cars always prove to be very popular and being a glasstop makes it a really unique classic. No 50's collection would be complete without one! Add it to your collection for $39,900.00!
