1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner Retractable Hardtop Thunderbird 312, 4 barrel, FordOMatic trans, optional 3.56:1 rear axle. This is a running, driving, registered and insured project car, it needs to be restored. Chassis and underpinnings are solid and surprisingly most of the body is rust free, save for the usual culprits (rockers, lower rear portion of front fenders). The roof itself needs metal repair around the bottom of the back glass pinch weld area and attachment points for the mechanism (or a replacement top), the rest of the top and the front folding portion are in good shape. All motors, cables, solenoids, mechanisms etc for the top are in working order and operational. The engine has an Edelbrock 4V carb on it, we do not have the original carb (we have the proper air cleaner). The wiper motor has been changed from the original vacuum type to an electric one.
