1956 Ford Sunliner Convertible

Car History

1956 Ford Sunliner Convertible was an ideal '50s cruiser back then, and now, for the driver that loved pastels and top-down driving. The Sunliner was the top-of-the-line car for Ford in 1956 and it is easy to see why with that sweeping trim running down the sides of the car that separates the two colors in dramatic fashion.

We have an absolute stunner of a 1956 Ford Sunliner convertible here at Adventure Classics in Coral over Colonial White that came with the 312 Thunderbird Engine, Automatic Transmission, Power Steering, Fender Skirts, Full Wheel Covers, White Side Wall Tires, Town and Country Radio, Windshield Washer, Lifeguard Safety Package, Lifeguard Steering Wheel, Lifeguard Seat Belts, Lifeguard Cushioning For Instrument Panel, Lifeguard Cushioned Sun Visors, Bumper Guards Front & Rear, Overrider Bars Front & Rear, a Continental Kit, Interior Mirror Day/ Night, Outside Mirrors Left & Right, and a Glove Box Light, per the original Window Sticker.
