defroster, AM radio, tinted glass, hubcaps and White sidewall
tires! This particular example is exceptionally rare and unusual in
that it has been restored with absolutely no expense spared and
with faithful attention to detail by its former collector owner at
the renown Nick Alexander shop in Huntington Park , CA. It was
previously a very original honest car and no history of any
accidents or rust ever and with it being possible that the car may
have only very few original miles! The floor boards, trunk and all
the typical rust-prone areas are and always have been completely
solid and rust-free.The car has a beautiful and very professional

original two-tone 'Seafoam Green amp; Timberline Green' color paint

rear spec linoleum cargo floor and with all its original factory
instrumentation intact and working, including the original 'AM'

faithfully restored to factory original specification condition
throughout. All the chrome has been re-chromed and the car's
original overhead valve 6 cylinder engine was rebuilt under its
previous ownership.The 215 6 cylinder overhead valve engine is
extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent and
this particular car drives absolutely magnificently - must be seen
and driven to be fully appreciated - does not miss a beat and purrs
like a kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road
wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that
will give any modern day car a run for it's money! The transmission
shifts smoothly through the gears and the car is an absolute
pleasure to drive! This is an extraordinarily rare opportunity to
own what must be one of the very finest Ranch Wagon's, if not the
finest, to ever come to the market and which recently placed 'First
Place' at the 'George Barris Car Show' in Culver City, CA. A true
all American classic car for the Ford enthusiast or simply any
classic car enthusiast to enjoy today!
