Description
1956 Ford Fairlane 4 Door Town Sedan
We normally don’t get excited about 4 door Sedans, ut this one is special. Purchased brand new at Market Motors in Akron, hio by John Chapelo. This was the only new car he ever purchased and was treated as such. He worked at Goodyear Tire and Rubber in Akron and this car was only driven on sunny summer Sundays. The car has never been driven in the snow. Mr. Chapelo was an oiler/mechanic at Goodyear Plant 2. While he worked there, hey developed the rust deterrent Cosmoline and it has been liberally applied to the inner fenders and potential rust areas of the car. I believe this is the major reason this car has survived the test of time. It was owned by him until his death in 1989 and then owned until 2014 by his family. It is an ‘Original’ maintained survivor. Mr. Chapelo was diligent in his upkeep of the car and it shows today. The paint (one small repair), nterior, riveline, tc… are all original. The VIN or Serial number of the car is M6FT253xxx which means Engine code 'M' V-8 292 ci. Production year 1956. Assembly Plant F. Dearborn Michigan. Body Type Fairlane Tudor 4 door Sedan. Production sequence 253xxx. Body type 73C Fairlane Town Sedan. Paint color is Bermuda Blue. Unlike many Fairlanes this vehicle is NOT two toned. Interior Trim light blue and medium blue cloth. Production code 253xxx. A Borgeson true power steering system was recently installed to enhance the driving experience. An Edelbrock 4 barrel carb and chrome air cleaner are on the car now but the original parts are in the trunk and go with the car. The vehicle has the very small scratches and dings that are normally acquired over the years. Included with the sale, e have a folder that has the original bill of sale from 1956, he service policy, ven the owner’s manual. I also have each registration card from 1956 until the car was registered historic in 1984. VIN# M6FT253xxx.
