Thread: 56 Ford Fairlane parts catalogs

Tweet

Hey Guys,

I have a guy who may want me to work on his 56 Ford Customline for him. Essentially, it's the step below the Fairlane trim model. Pretty neat car and you don't see them that often. It's a 2dr hardtop and really sweet. It has the chrome headlight bezels and I like the body side moldings better than the Fairlane's to be honest. It's a 6cyl, but that's kind of neat in it's own right. Anyway, what's some good parts houses for them? Anyplaces offer conversion kits (disks, engine swap mounts, etc)? Thanks for the help. Heck, I may just wind up buying it from him!

Crites doesn't have 56 parts. Not that I'm seeing anyway...

I found my best source is www.classicautoparts.com their catalog is from 1949-72 Fords 280+ pages you can order one online,lots of pictures of the parts also. You may want to get a catalog from MAC'S Auto also.

Thanks Jeff. I also found www.dearbornclassics.com as well for anyone esle who may need parts for early Fords and such.
