This 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner is a beautifully restored retractable in a fantastic 50s color scheme with great options! 1958 proved to be a down year for the American automakers due to an economic recession at the time that caused car sales to take a bit of a dip. Nonetheless, companies such as the Ford Motor Company re-vamped the styling on its 1958 passenger car line and FoMoCo introduced these cars to the public on November 7, 1957. At the nose, Ford completely redesigned the front ends and "Safety-Twin" headlights were also incorporated into the front fenders, the first time automakers were permitted to have dual headlights on their cars and trucks. At the rear, the taillights were also revamped moving away from the single circle design to a matching dual oval design that straddled a rectangular backup light. Sitting atop Ford's passenger car line was the Fairlane 500 series and the top-level Fairlane 500 was the Skyliner Retractable that featured the iconic Hide-Away hardtop which made its initial debut in 1957. Powering this Skyliner is a 332 V8 engine paired with a single 4 barrel carburetor. The 332 V8 is backed by a Cruise-O-Matic Automatic transmission. It's also loaded with options like power brakes, power steering and dealer add-on air conditioning so that you can stay cool even on the hottest summer days. The Hide-Away Hardtop on this '58 Ford works great and goes up and down with the simple pull or push of a switch under the dash. Riding on a set of wide whitewall tires paired with full Turbine-style wheelcovers, this 1958 Skyliner has a truly classic look. The chrome and brightwork around the exterior of this fifties Ford is in wonderful condition as well. The exterior on this 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 has been correctly refinished in a beautiful two-tone paint scheme consisting of Gulfstream Blue and Colonial White which completes the exterior look of the car. The interior on this 1958 Ford Retractable Hardtop is absolutely stunning! The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered correctly in a beautiful two-tone color scheme made up of Colonial White Vinyl with Blue Gulfstream Royal Scot Tweed inserts. The Gulfstream Blue painted dash, two-tone upholstered door panels, steering wheel, and blue carpeting are all in fantastic shape and appear to be in their stock configuration. The dash is equipped with a 120 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, and fuel gauge, along with a Town and Country AM radio and clock. A dealer installed Ford-branded air conditioning unit is mounted neatly under the dash as well.
