1956 FORD FAIRLANE PROJECT

Please read the description very carefully and look the pictures over closely as this will let you know exactly what you are bidding on and what needs to be done. First of all this 56 has a very excellent and straight body - all the factory holes for mounting the side trim are original as they were from the factory. The engine runs and drives as it sets - about six years ago i completely stripped all the chrome and body parts and got it ready for paint - i took it to a good body shop ( paid a premium price ) and had it painted however they used a cheap clear coat and with in a few years it started to peal - at the same time my health took a turn for the worse and i never got the car put back together - i am now 78 and unable to finish this project so now it is up for sale - as you can see from the pictures it needs to be repainted and assembled by the buyer - you will find that i have had some of the grille park lights - hood ornament - etc. - pieces re-chromed - the interior is in need of complete restoration - all the stainless trim is there and in great condition - AGAIN please look the pictures over closely -This project is 98 percent complete except for paint - new interior - and assembly - what you see in the pictures is what goes with the car - if you need it shipped all the pieces will be carefully put in the car - the car does start and run so it can be driven on to a transport vehicle. also not in the pictures is a brand new front windshield and rear window that goes with the car - the engine is the 312 cu in thunderbird 4 barrel engine - this was an option and it was the biggest engine offered in 56.Prepping the body for paint should be relatively easy as all the trim is off the car - i was going to have it done however leaving it this way will allow the new owner to choose any color he desires - again the body on this car is perfect conditionThis is a project that when finished will be a beautiful 56 vicky - a very popular classic - what it will cost to buy the car is very reasonable - there will be very little out of pocket expense for the few parts that might be missing ( nuts - bolts - trim fasteners - rubber seals - etc )if you are interested in purchasing this vehicle i can be reached at 702-401-3344 for any questions that you need answered - i will be happy to put a buy-it-now in ebay if a sale price is reached before the auction ends.Last of all i can only say this vehicle it an excellent project at the right price for a person able to finish it up.
