For today's post, the FM '57 Skyliner deserves a bit of spotlight. Sure, the DM version is a better example of this Fairlane, more detailing and presentation, but the FM versions are still very nice in their own right. FM issued the model 1st, and that one was in Flame Red & Colonial White. It was followed by Raven Black & Colonial White. Ten years after the red version, a Tinderbox Exclusive Limited Edition was issued, it was in Starmist Blue & Colonial White and a few years later the final version was issued by FM, also a LE, it was in Coral Sand & Colonial White.
My favorite of the four is the Blue & White version, this color combination has always been a Ford favorite of mine.
