Steve, I haven`t seen the magazine yet, but I`m a bit confused. I always thought that the "SKYLINER" designation was used on the 57-59 Ford retractable HT`s, with the "SUNLINER" name used on the soft top converts. Or is this a 56 hardtop with the green plexiglass roof panel? I know Mercury called them "SUN VALLEY`s", did Ford call those cars Skyliners? ------------------ 78 Fairmont 428 4 speed 10.20@130mph 80 Fairmont 302 5 speed 12.8@105mph 85 Mustang NHRA Stocker under construction, 302 5 speed
