Fairlane

Classic Ford model

Fairlane is a model name Ford used for mid-size sedans from 1955 to 1970, named after Henry Ford's estate.

The name evokes mid-century American automotive design and suburban prosperity.

My grandfather still drives his '66 Fairlane.

The term sometimes appears nostalgically for classic American cars of that era.
