1958 Ford Fairlane 500

Ford's Skyliner was a showstopper when it debuted, and 1958 is one of its most memorable years, with a power retractable hardtop that folds the entire roof into the trunk at the touch of a button, giving you a hardtop coupe and an open air convertible in one car. This Skyliner has been treated to an extensive list of new parts and upgrades, so you get head turning mid-century style with a refreshed foundation underneath. Finished in a classic Torch Red and Colonial White two tone combination, this Skyliner has the bold, optimistic look that defined late 1950s American design. Chrome and gold exterior accents add extra sparkle, while new 14 inch wired wheels, new tires, and a new continental kit give it a stately, show ready stance. New fender skirts painted to match and new deck lid pads finish off an exterior that looks every bit as dramatic parked as it does cruising down the road. Power comes from the 332ci V8, paired with a rebuilt 3 speed automatic transmission for smooth, easy cruising. A new power steering control valve and cylinder make it effortless to handle, and a disc brake conversion with a dual master cylinder and Wilwood rotors brings modern stopping power and peace of mind that the original drum setup could never offer. A new fuel pump, radiator, and hoses round out the mechanical updates, keeping this Skyliner dependable and ready for the road. Inside, white vinyl seating with red cloth inserts, finished in new upholstery using OEM fabric, ties in beautifully with the red carpet and keeps the cabin true to the car's original character. New door panels, new carpet, new floor liners, and a new dashpad make the whole interior feel fresh, while crank windows keep things period correct. For a modern touch, a new Bluetooth radio is paired with custom fiberglass kick panel speakers and a subwoofer installed in the trunk, which also gets a new trunk liner kit. This Skyliner is a rare chance to own one of Ford's most creative and unforgettable designs, backed by thorough restoration work, upgraded brakes, and modern sound, all ready for car shows, cruise nights, and sunny days with the top down.
