Our subject car didn’t quite reach the $616k high sale of that 2008 RM Auctions sale.

The Skyliner’s smoked acrylic glass roof was impressive, but it tended to bake the passengers like ants under a magnifying glass. The only higher step on Ford’s production line was the Crown Victoria Skyliner. Ford had used the name “Victoria” since the 1930s. This model was Ford’s first use of the Crown Victoria name, which would later go on to be the standard of police vehicles for two decades, starting in the 1990s.

However, the Crown Victoria, which was the top of the Fairlane line, did not set sales records. In 1955, the Fairlane lineup replaced the Crestline as the top-trim-level Blue Oval - and it sold and sold. Consumers flocked to the V8 Shoebox Chevys and ate up the “100 Million Dollar Look” (updated to Forward Look in 1956) of Virgil Exner’s Chrysler designs.
