Junkyard Jewel 1968 Ford Fairlane
(04/03/2017 photo by OC,SHer JAY B)

The Fairlane family debuted in 1955 as a full-size model; by 1962, it had been relegated to the midsize segment. The family name is from Henry Ford’s estate near Dearborn MI: Fair Lane. 1968 was the start of the 2-year 6th generation (1970 was a 7th generation by itself). While the wheelbase of the 1968 model remained at 116 inches, the car itself was ~4 inches longer & 200 lb heavier than the outgoing 5th generation. A fastback Sportsroof model & a luxurious Torino model debuted this year, but to cut costs, the wagons carried over the prior generation bodies from the cowl back. A year later, the 1969 Cobra model debuted to compete against Plymouth’s Road Runner.
