{{Infobox Automobile|name=Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner|aka=Ford Skyliner|image=|manufacturer=Ford Motor Company|related=[Ford Fairlane (North American)|predecessor=Ford Crown Victoria Skyliner--> See also Ford Victoria Skyliner for the 1954 Ford and Ford Crown Victoria Skyliner for the 1955–1956 Ford Crown Victoria, both with acrylic glass roofs. The Ford Skyliner was an innovative full-size automobile with a retractable hardtop produced by the Ford Motor Company in the late 1950s. Based on the North American Ford Fairlane (North American), the Skyliner had a complex mechanism which folded the front of the roof and retracted it under the rear decklid. This mechanism was prone to failure, and the large top took up vast amounts of trunk space, limiting the car's sales. But the concept of a retractable hardtop had much appeal and was resurrected in the 1990s with the Mitsubishi GTO and Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class also appearing in other later vehicles.
