Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad that does some name-dropping to help answer the question “Is Fairlane as quick as it looks?”. The picture shows a Red Ford Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe parked cross ways on a dirt road with a man, in the foreground, wearing a shirt that says Cobra Powered by Ford. The text mentions that Carroll Shelby, the builder of the Cobra sports car, has called the Fairlane’s 289 cu. in. V-8 option the “best V-9 ever to come out of Detroit”. It then mentions a few of Fairlane’s sporty optional features and claims that “Never before has so little money bought so much car”.
