1958 Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner owned and restyled by Harald Sannum of Trondheim, Norway. The Skyliner came from Oslo, and Harald traded it for his customized 1959 Chevrolet Impala in 1968. The engine was hopped up, and the car was mildly restyled. It was show at the 1974 Motormesseshow in Trondheim, the first all American car show of Norway.[1]


By 1979 Harald had sold the Skyliner to another member of the American Car Club of Trondheim. The new owner had restored the car back to original configuration.[1]


Frank Flatval owned the car for some years. At the time, it was white. Frank had the roof painted red while he owned it. Bjørn E. Isdahl owned the car in 2013. By then it had been painted blue and white.[2]
