In November 1954, the final clay models for the 1957 Fairlane was approved, and one of the the hardtop's was given to Ben Smith and his crew at Special Productions Divisions which meant a little more re sculpting their Continental Clay Model until it looked like a Ford. The 1957 model headlight front end like their predecessors, but were unmistakable with their long flanks and tail - fins a plethora of trim lines. The name is deprived from Henry Ford's estate Fair Lane near Dearborn, Michigan.
For 1957 a new style gave a longer wider lower and sleek look with two tail - fins. The big news for 1957 was the introduction of the Fairlane 500 Skyliner power retractable hardtop whose solid top hinged and folded down into the trunk space at a touch of button. A two door American full - size car with a retractable hardtop which was produced by Ford in the USA. In 1957 Ford out sold Chevrolet.
