Regency PurpleIntroducing a rare gem from the golden age of automobiles: the 1955 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria. This vehicle is a masterpiece of classic American automotive design, representing roughly 5% of the total production of its kind. It’s not just an automobile; it’s a piece of history.
The exterior boasts a factory-correct two-tone finish in the eye-catching Regency Purple and Snowshoe White. This combination is accentuated by a glossy, smooth finish achieved through meticulous restoration. Unique to the Crown Victoria, a striking chrome band adorns the B-pillar, distinctively separating the front and rear compartments. Vintage elements such as wraparound chrome bumpers, elegant whitewall tires, fender skirts, and jet-inspired tail lights ensure a standout presence wherever you go.
Inside, the car has undergone a complete custom transformation while retaining the charm of the 1950s. Vibrant purple and white tones complement the exterior colors, with refreshed styling evident in every stitch, notably highlighted by white piping on the plush purple carpeting. Modern conveniences like a custom cup holder center console and an updated air conditioning system enhance the driving experience, complementing timeless features such as the banjo-style sports steering wheel and a historic plexiglass window speedometer.
Under the hood is a robust 292 cubic-inch V8 engine, carefully upgraded to meet contemporary standards of performance and reliability. Enhancements include a .030 over kit, milled heads, hardened valve seats, an Isky .425 lift cam, and a responsive Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. This powertrain provides an exhilarating drive, complemented by an MSD ignition system, Offenhauser finned valve covers, and an aluminum radiator for optimal cooling. The four-speed manual transmission offers complete control of your driving experience.
This Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria is not only a visual delight but also delivers an exceptional driving attitude with power front disc brakes and sway bars. It invites admiration whether cruising city streets or parked at prestigious events, and with its clean title, it’s ready for discerning enthusiasts to relish.
Experience the allure of this classic cruiser, cherished and maintained with care throughout the years, ensuring its place as a prized possession for decades to come.
