1955 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria

Named for Henry Ford's Dearborn estate, Ford's premium Fairlane line debuted alongside the original Thunderbird for 1955. These new top-line cars helped Ford record its best sales year since 1923. The style and drastic roofline was in instant hit with the crowds and people all over the U.S. Even with high production numbers, the Crown Victoria still remains to be a sought after vehicle for all collectors.

This very fine example has fared very well over the years and has been cared for and stored properly by the past owner for the last 9 years. Believed to be sold new in Nevada where it spent a large portion of its time prior to a small stint in OH and then into the care of the current Michigan owner. Interior is in near flawless condition from floor to roof. Two-tone leather seats are in remarkable shape and complimented well by the perfect headliner and dash/gauges. Carpet is clean and fresh looking without tears or rips. It is powered by its original 272ci V8 engine. Engine and transmission perform as expected with a throaty dual exhaust to complete the sound. All new 12 volt system has been installed and updated along with battery shut off to preserve the battery after long storage times.

Exterior shows nicely with a solid paint job and bright chrome work that does not reflect the year of the vehicle. Kelsey Hayes wire wheels are in remarkable shape and mounted to period correct white walls. Continental kit on the rear gives this Crown Victoria the proper look and allows quick access to trunk and spare tire. Dual mirrors, dual antennas and sexy lines make this the one to be on your short list of cars to purchase.

Factory owner's manual and car cover come with the purchase and many great times ahead for you and your passengers.
