Vehicle design changed quite a bit moving into the 60s but prior to
that long sleek vehicles with lots of chrome and those classic fins
were the thing to have. For the 1957 Fords there were many trim
levels to choose from starting with the custom and working your way
up to the top of the line Fairlane 500 like you see here. This cool
classic has a great look and runs well. It is a survivor quality
car and really looks cool rolling down the road. The body is solid
with no rust spots or signs of previous damage. It is painted in
Cumberland Green and White color combo that suits it well and is
the factory colors. These cars had a ton of bright work and all of
the original style chrome and stainless trim is cleanly mounted in
place. The glass is all good except for the passengers side window
which does have a crack in it. The car rides around on its original
wheels and hubcaps which are wrapped with wide white wall tires
which are perfect for this vintage of vehicle. The tires are from
Coker and are new so they have a lot of life left in them. It also
has the rear skirts which complete the classic 50s look.
Under the forward tilting hood is the Thunderbird 312 V8 which was
the largest displacement available for this year. It starts up
smoothly and doesn't smoke or have any issues. It is backed by an
automatic transmission that moves through the gears nicely. It has
factory power steering which works properly.
The interior is done in a Green and White color combo to match the
body. The upholstery work is in good shape and it has bench seats
in front/rear. Everything has been kept mostly original except for
the added seatbelts and aftermarket console/cupholders which sit on
the seat. All of the lights are working properly with no problems.
The trunk of this car has a ton of storage space and houses a spare
and jack.
This cool survivor car has a lot going for it and looks great
rolling down the road. There is nothing quite like the style of
these 50's classics and this one is the top of the line trim level
with nice factory options.
