The Royal Ride 1955 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria Ford's Best Year Ever Any way you look at it, 1955 was a great year for Ford. Sales were the second best in its history and the $437 million profit was a record. The biggest noise was made by the introduction of the Thunderbird but the entire Ford line was revamped and redesigned. The Fairlane marquee was introduced replacing the Crestline. The top of the Fairlane line was the Crown Victoria. The less popular, but more interesting, of the two Crown Victoria models featured a green-tinted Plexiglas top. At $2372 and 3388lbs. It was the costliest and heaviest Fairlane. Only 1999 were sold. Hand-Assembled from over 100 Components The 1:24 scale 1955 Ford Crown Victoria has all the quality features you expect from Franklin Mint. No-smudge gloves and special tool to open hood and trunk are included along with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. The 272 cubic inch 182 horsepower V-8 engine is wired and plumb. The interior is fully carpeted. And, of course, all the design features that amazed the American public over 50 years ago are included- the “basket-handle” roofline (which looked like a crown), wraparound windshield, Continental spare tire kit, fins and hooded headlights with chrome eyebrows.
