George Hodapp's 1959 Ford Fairlane 500
My 1959 Ford Fairlane 500 mild custom. Custom touches include 58 Edsel spinner wheel covers, tube grill, slight dechroming, cruiser skirts, 59 Edsel instrument cluster and pinstripes. There is also a dash mounted record player in the reupholstered interior. Power comes from an original 200hp 292 Y-Block. Future plans include a new 292 with an aluminum tri-power intake. I purchased the car after from Detroit, Michigan after finding it online. I am the 3rd owner. The car was in the 2022 Piston Power Autorama, 2022 Choppers Show and the 2023 Piston Power Autorama. It has also been to various local shows and cruises.
