bought a 56 ford fairlane!

Just bought a 56 ford fairlane 2 dr ht.Gonna build a mild kustom. 3 on the tree and 292 y- block. Engine n tranny have been rebuilt. New frame braces car was on a rottiserie Owner was a bodyshop owner. Gonna paint it HOK red with a white interior with merc sw tailights.

 

is it all white, or did you forget to post a pic?

 

Should be a fun ride. Hope you got lots of green for the taillites.

 

'56s are pretty

 

Yeah, they are. (I had 3 of 'em in the '60s) They (Customline/Fairlane) share the low roofline with the Vicky, but have the small chrome trim.
Probably my favorite Ford.

 

Well alright! It sounds like you've found a project that has a lot of the hard work already done. Can't wait to hear what you've got in mind for this.

 

Blue Paint , Black interior & a sbc , OR you could try red Paint , white interior and top it all off With a 292 & 3-speed

Pix .. We love pix

 

Will post pics ,would have liked to have sold my galaxie first got 15 grand in here did all the work except tranny rebuild but havent got any bites yet.People are broke these days!

 

*** why didn't you wait? try posting '64 For Sale in Classifieds here. yep, plenty of broke people - first time you noticed?
