This 80 page soft cover history and reference book was the only full-length publication ever devoted exclusively to the 1957, 1958, and 1959 Skyliner Hardtop Convertible as produced by the Ford Motor Company, and took over 3 years to compile. Five detailed chapters cover the evolution of the concept and delve into production features of each model year. Included are production numbers, data plate decoding info, accessory prices, and 200+ original and previously unpublished photos covering details of each model year. Also included are the only known published photos of the prototype Edsel retractable and Eisenhower Skyliner! This hard to find edition would make the perfect gift for any Ford Hideaway Hardtop restorer or enthusiast, or anyone interested in 1950 s automotive history! Much of the information covered also pertains to other Ford models including the Fairlane 500, Galaxie, Ranchero, Sunliner, Station Wagon and Custom 300. This book is being offered from the authors unsold inventory and is in new unread condition!

5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent book with great information,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner, 1957-1959 (Classic Motorbooks Photofacts) (Paperback)
I found this book a great resource for '57 to '59 Ford Skyliner information. I have owned a '59 Ford Retractable for about 20 years and was curious to the past and making of the great machine. I heard many of the photos of early production among other things in the book were lost in files throughout the years and retreived by Mr. Magayne. In my words, this book is a must have to any Ford Retractable owner or admirer. An excellent car with an excellent past and Mr. Magayne does a great job retracing the cars legendary past.
