The Ford Fairlane is a classic car that was popular in New Zealand during the 1960s and 1970s. It was known for its spacious interior, comfortable ride, and powerful V8 engine.
The Fairlane was available in both sedan and station wagon models, with engine options ranging from a 3.6 litre inline six to a 5.8 litre V8. It was also equipped with power steering and brakes, making it easy to handle on New Zealand’s winding roads. Today, the Fairlane is a sought-after collector’s item for car enthusiasts and a reminder of a bygone era of automotive design.
