Here's your chance to get your hands on something rare, beautiful, and exceptionally interesting. This 1955 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria made up only about 5 percent of total Fairlane production. And while it was already hard to find another one, we bet you'll be one-of-a-kind in this one. You not only have a beautiful vintage exterior, but you're going to spend a ton of time showcasing the full custom A/C interior. And with a great driving attitude you'll be showing this unique Ford off everywhere.
Rarity and distinction are at the heart of this cruiser. The trim tag tells us the Regency Purple and Snowshoe White is the factory-correct two-tone. We can't recall the last time we've seen a Ford in this lilac-like hue, but it's unforgettable for its terrific gloss and smooth feel on this well-restored coupe. And the creamy white is given a well-defined separation that's to Fairlane's sweeping side trim. And on a body this well done, it looks like an almost unbroken line running down the profile. But what you'll really love is how only the Crown Victoria has brightwork that goes over-the-top (literally) with a band of chrome on the B-pillar that visually separates the front and rear passenger compartments. Wraparound chrome bumpers, whitewall tires, fender skirts, and jet-inspired tail lights make for a great vintage total package. But those polished exhaust tips hint at something fun under the hood (more on that in a moment.)
The interior is a comprehensive custom style. After all, the 1950s were known for great colors, but even back then there wasn't anything as vibrant as this. The purple and white two-tone is inspired by the exterior color theme, but it has a freshness that tells you it's a newer addition from the restoration. And you'll love the details, like the right sticking pattern and the white piping on the purple carpeting. There are nice features for easy cruising like a cup holder center console and cold-blowing air conditioning. Plus, the banjo-style sports steering wheel, Hurst shifter, and well-bolstered front bucket seats make for a better driver's classic. Even with all these upgraded features, you can still get the right classic details - including the plexiglass window speedometer. If you haven't already figured out the color theme, the stitching on the center console tells you this has been inspired by the colors for TCU. But you don't need to be a horned frogs fan to enjoy this Crown Vic. After all, it doesn't take much to replace the TCU logos. So even a Baylor fan can appreciate the rare/correct exterior color combo and the interior's coordination.
It's nice to see a Ford get upgraded in the engine bay while still keeping the power in the blue oval family. This is a correct-style 292 cubic-inch V8. It's said to be internally built for better power and modern times with a .030 over kit, milled heads, hardened valve seats, crankshaft turned .010 under, and given an Isky .425 lift cam. This inhales deeper with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with added power and authority as Red's headers feed the dual exhaust. It also has good supporting components, like Offenhauser finned valve covers, an MSD ignition system, and an aluminum radiator with electric fan. This V8 fires up readily, and you are in complete control of the V8's power and soundtrack with the four-speed manual transmission. And there's an overall easy cruising attitude with power front disc brakes and sway bars front & rear.
This is the kind of cool custom that will get you a prominent parking placement no matter if it's a car show or a TCU game. So if you love a full custom that was made to cruise, call day!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent.
