'57 Fairlane, gone.

[Farmhand]

My uncle died seven years ago and his beautiful '57 Ford Fairlane, black and white two door hardtop, was sitting in the barn ever since. I knew my aunt would let it sit there until it fell through the floor.
Well, the barn burned down and the car fell through the floor with the hayloft and roof on top of it.
Sometimes I hate being right.:thumbsdn:

That's ashame....that's such a classic car...would of been nice to restore it....

 

[tybrad]

Hearing these sorts of stories about classic anythings just fans my flames. I am sorry to hear about this.

 

[Brian]

Sad to hear of the loss of the car but sadder to hear of her loss and likely grief she will feel losing the car and her memories of her husband with the car.

bad situation all the way around.

 

[Tom Brennan]

In 1957 Ford built over 600,000 Fairlanes.

 

[Yamaki]

That's too bad.

It would have been a nice tribute to your uncle to rebuild and get that '57 back on the road.
