This Is an Auction for the EXTREMELY RARE 1957 MARUSAN FORD Fairlane Sedan. It is powered by 2 D cell batteries and is free running. (no wires or remotes) It is a fantastic piece of workmanship, although it has had its share of hard times. The roof is bent to the side and the top has a couple of paint chips . It is also missing the front windshield and the battery cover. I am not a metalsmith or toymaker so I have not attempted to repair any of the damage for fear of damaging this extremely expensive toy further. It needs someone who knows how to fix the damage, although it seems that it shouldn’t be that difficult a task for someone who knows how to handle it. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE It does run in forward AND reverse and the lights still work! I found this write up on this model and would like to share it with all of you.
