This is SunStar's fine model of the beautiful Thunderbird-inspired 1958 Fairlane 500 convertible.

Sunstar did some nice tooling here and offered up some great color combos. White/black & red/black will soon be available too. I just may have to get a few more.

That pastel blue and white color combo was popular back in the day also with the tri-five Chevys.

Elizabeth Taylor drove an all-blue 1958 Ford Sunliner in the MGM film "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof".

It's terrific subject matter and the color choices are excellent. I'd like to eventually get one of the hardtop versions, maybe the all-black one.

Thanks, Bob. It's a real Fiftiesmobile in the best sense of the word.
