1965 Ford Fairlane (Americas)

All 1965 models featured 14 inch wheels as standard, in place of the earlier 13 inch wheels, and the two speed Fordomatic was finally phased out, leaving the Cruise O Matic as the only automatic. The 260 V8 was dropped after 1964, leaving the two barrel 289 as the base V8. Styling features for 1965 included body color headlight bezels on the deluxe models and rectangular taillight lenses. The Fairlane ranges of 1964 and 1965 consisted of similar body styles: base Fairlane and Fairlane 500 two door coupes and four door sedans, plus Fairlane 500 and Sports Coupe two door hardtops.
