Vehicle Description
West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional
and superb daily driving and fully restored example of this 1953
Ford Mainline Ranch Wagon with its original rebuilt 215 6 cylinder
engine in it's beautiful and striking two-tone 'Seafoam Green amp;
Timberline Green' factory color paint with a gorgeous 'Tan' vinyl
interior amp; with original spec tan linoleum cargo floor . The car
had factory options including the 215 6 cylinder engine, 3 speed
manual transmission, heater amp; 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 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 solid and rust-free.The
car has a beautiful and very professional repaint at Nick
Alexander's restoration shop in it's striking original two-tone
'Seafoam Green amp; Timberline Green' color paint and has a
beautifully restored and as new 'Tan' vinyl interior correctly
restored with correct original material including the rear spec
linoleum cargo floor and with all its original factory
instrumentation intact and working, including the original 'AM'
radio, all of which are is in quite exceptional and with the car
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!
