PETER'S PRINCESS

1957tb's 1963 Ford Fairlane


This was a lucky find I had been trying to find one in the states but was not having much luck when I pickup a trader paper to find the only fairlane advertised was this beauty, she had been put in a shed in 1977 when the owner could no longer drive her, he later passed away and his sons used to take for a spin to the end of the road and put her back shed, I purchased her in 1997 she had been shed stored all that time but still looked as good as the day she had been put there.With only 39,000 on the clock,she had been barely run in.

1957tb's 1963 Ford Fairlane her upholstry is two tone metalic blue factory centre console with bucket seats, and is as good as the day she came out of the factory. I have added a couple of extra's like 14x7"whitewall tyres with SS Cragar mags, a C4 auto trans fitted back to the original column it gives better cruising speeds and less drag on the car,and a 10 stack CD player in the trunk, rear twin aerials sporting red,white and blue ribbons when on show, and a spare wheel mounted on the rear to give a continental kit appearance with an original Hub Cap to finish it off.

She still turns heads as she cruises down the street the V8 burbles from the original exhaust system.

She has little stainless headlight visors just to add a bit of dress up on the front.

The old-school wheels and the Continental kit are really nice on the little Fairlane, Peter! Beautiful car, and 5 stars!

WOW, the condition of the car is absolutely amazing, i've never seen an unrestored fairlane of that age look so good. Be very proud, she's beautiful!
I've got a 63 as well, but not even a small percentage as nice as yours. :)

Very nice '63. I didn't realize that the Hollywood spare was an option on the Fairlane...cool. I also noticed that this is a Sports Coupe with a bench seat..that has got to be rare. The interior looks impeccable. Drop by and check out my '63 and leave me a note...later
