Ford Fairlane Boneschi
The Ford Fairlane prototype by Carrozzeria Boneschi.
Vehicle Overview
The 1963 Ford Fairlane by Carrozzeria Boneschi is a remarkable example of Italian coachbuilding applied to an American model. In collaboration with renowned designer Rodolfo Bonetto, Boneschi applied his distinctive “Linea Tesa” design language to create a refined and elegant take on the Ford Fairlane, a car that was typically known for its more traditional American styling. Only two versions of this unique creation were built, both showcasing Bonetto’s signature principles of simplicity, sharp lines, and functional elegance. The “Linea Tesa” philosophy, with its focus on clean lines and geometric forms, stood in stark contrast to the more rounded and flamboyant designs often seen in the mid-20th century, making the Ford Fairlane Boneschi an intriguing fusion of American engineering and Italian design. The outcome was a vehicle that was both sleek and sophisticated, exuding a sense of modernity while retaining the Fairlane’s inherent charm. The collaboration between Bonetto and Carrozzeria Boneschi in 1963 reflects a time when the worlds of Italian craftsmanship and American automotive engineering came together to create something truly special. With only two examples produced, the Ford Fairlane by Carrozzeria Boneschi is a rare piece of automotive history, embodying the forward-thinking vision of its designers and the enduring appeal of unique, hand-crafted cars.
