You are bidding on a beautiful 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Sunliner Convertible!
Nice paint, like new interior & carpet, beautiful automobile! The engine is a Thunderbird 312 V-8 with 245-horsepower and a 4-barrel carburetor, 3-on-the-tree manual transmission with overdrive, a beautiful, rare car. Car has an electric trunk release button in the glovebox. Really fun to drive and gets a ton of attention, great driving car! I have the optional skirts for this car as well, I just prefer the look without them - but they go with the car, painted and ready to install if you like them! The frame is great with no issues, same goes for the body mounts. The foot-well areas of the floor have had some fiberglass patches done a long time ago, they are very solid and are fairly covered with years of road-grime. The speedo doesn't work and the gas gauge works when it wants to. The car drives really well, probably the one thing that I would do to this car if I could keep it is to get some new radial tires for it - the wide-whitewall tires look great but they are old bias-ply tires.
My Sunliner ragtop is perfect for piling the wife and kids in and heading to the drive-in for a milkshake, or head to your local cruise-night, parade, or car show – this car does it all in style!
Come on out, once you inspect this car and drive it you'll want it!
