"1956 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan
If you grew up playing with Matchbox, Hotwheels, or any number of toy cars available back then, there's no doubt you had at least one emergency vehicle. More likely, you had a number of police cars, fire engines, and ambulances. Something about the vibrant colors, the red lights, the seals on the doors that stirs something in us, to the point that as adults, we're still attracted to the vehicles of first responders.
For consignment, a 1956 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan showing 5,283 miles, but the true miles are unknown due to a PA title exemption. This one portrays a fire chief car and a matching accessory trailer that carries your car show accoutrements.
Exterior
Pull right for this Fairlane, naturally draped in twos stage Fire Engine Red with contrasting white roof and standard stainless trim that starts on the fender tops, widens on the door, then bounces straight back to the tail. Along with it, some obligatory graphics including a Maltese cross on the doors, strobe stripes under the trim, station number and Fast Response on the front fenders. On the roof, the light bar carries a cherry top flanked by a pair of sirens, while the Fairlane retains its artful hood ornament leading the way and sculpted into the hood. You'll see double as the Ford's tail lights are mirrored on the boxy trailer which has stripes and graphics of its own along with headlights, all on a diamond plate base and connected to the hitch below the car's chrome bumper. 17-inch American Torque Thrust wheels help get you there in a hurry! Imperfections include an area of orange peel finish, inclusions, bubbling and blistering throughout, paint cracks, and filler dimples.
Interior
After you put out the fire, you'll want to change your clothes so you don't get soot on the vibrant red and white interior beginning with the clean door panels that alternate the colors. A sea of white awaits on the vinyl bucket seats, center console with armrest and cupholders, and rear bench with pull down armrest, all in great shape. A white rimmed banjo style steering wheel fronts a stunning dash, topped by red and backed by a reflective metal trim plate housing dolphin white faced gauges that might remind you of the instruments on the side of an actual fire truck! The reflective band of trim makes its way across the dash under which you'll find a siren/PA system unit and a Sniper EFI digital screen. A white knobbed Hurst shifter rises from the bright red carpet and along with the red headliner, presents in excellent condition. The trunk is clean and loaded with car show pieces and the space inside the trailer also has what you'll need to properly show this fun tribute.
Drivetrain
Sure, the exterior is full of whimsy, but the engine is all business; a 460ci V8 with an Edelbrock intake, Holley Sniper EFI system, and clean and polished parts galore. It's mated to a Toploader 4-speed manual transmission sending power to the Ford 9"" rear. Power brakes and power steering are on board.
Undercarriage
Clean conditions abound underneath where you'll find Flow FX by FlowMaster mufflers attached to the dual exhaust and power disc brakes on all four wheels! Suspension consists of coil springs in front and leaf springs with traction bars in back. Rust free and dry.
Drive-Ability
The clean interior and all around bright car comes to life with ease thanks to the fuel injection, and makes its way throughout our test loop in flying colors; red and white to be specific! Good power, straight tracking and braking they dreamed about in '56. Meanwhile, we note the horn, heater blower, and radio are not working, but all other functions work as they should, including lights, siren and PA! This could be fun. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
If you think we're alone in our attraction to emergency vehicles, park this one at your local car show and see what happens! And for goodness sake, let the kids sit inside it! This car has already racked up 26 trophies but there are plenty more out there waiting to be won!
