Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1958 Ford Fairlane 500. Debuting in 1955, the Fairlane, named after Henry Ford's estate, represented this to the premium automobile market. Just one look at this vehicle and it takes you back to a special age where the cars weren't just cars, but works of art. This vintage Fairlane 500 is wrapped in a two-tone combination of Red over White, accented with gold inserts in its chrome side trim. Under the hood lurks its original 332 CID V8, which provides the power through the 3-speed automatic transmission. The odometer shows only 72,600 miles and they very well could be original but there is really no way to prove it. The current owner is only the third and this car still looks like it has a lot of years left in it on the road. The Black, Gray and White Vinyl interior looks amazing and in superb condition for a car this old. The exterior paint is driver quality but good enough to take to any cruise-in or car show you see fit. The wide white wall tires give it that vintage look that only an old school big bod like this can pull off. Options on this 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 include: Spare Tire, Hub Caps, Jack, Wide White wall tires. This 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 is offered by our Louisville Showroom and can be seen in greater detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD video at http://www.GatewayClassicCars.com.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
