The 6th generation Fairlane, introduced in 1966, marked Ford's return to the mid-size market. Sharing its platform with the Falcon and Mustang, this generation is known for its distinctive stacked dual headlights and clean, straight-line styling. It was available in a variety of body styles, including 2-door hardtops, convertibles, sedans, and station wagons, offering something for nearly every type of buyer.
Collectors are primarily interested in the V8-powered models, particularly the high-performance versions. The 390 and legendary 427 side-oiler V8s turned this sensible family car into a formidable street machine. The GT and GTA (for automatic transmission) packages are highly sought after, as they included bucket seats, special trim, and heavy-duty suspension. These cars offer a great muscle-era alternative to the more common Mustang or Chevelle.
The market for these Fairlanes remains approachable for many enthusiasts. With an average sale price around $15,000, they represent a strong value for classic American iron. While project cars and base sedans can be found for less, restored big-block cars and GTs command prices approaching $30,000, reflecting their desirability and performance credentials.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the biggest enemy. Pay close attention to the cowl area, floor pans, trunk floor, and the lower rear quarter panels behind the wheels.
- Verify the powertrain. Many Fairlanes have had engine swaps, so check VIN and data plates to confirm originality, especially on desirable 390 or 427 cars. A Marti Report is essential for documentation.
- Inspect the torque boxes, which connect the front frame rails to the main unibody. They are prone to rust and can crack on cars that were driven hard.
- Check the condition and completeness of the interior. Unique trim, dash pads, and upholstery can be much harder to source for a Fairlane than for a contemporary Mustang.
