A great custom has a sleek and memorable style. The interior has
comfortable upgrades like custom upholstery and air conditioning.
And it also really knows how to move you with a strong V8 and
overdrive transmission. So it's great to see all of that, and more,
wrapped in the cool style of a 1956 Ford Ranch Wagon.
The two-door wagons always have a special place in the classic car
scene where it straddles the line of a cool coupe and a
grocery-getter. And more than just a distinct body style, they made
sure to give it a unique appearance. Blue and silver are great
complementing colors that you could have gotten in the 1950s. But
the tones here are deeper to signal this is a custom ride. Of
course, the pinstriping on the hood, tinted windows, cat eye
headlight covers, dual exhaust tips, and bright American Racing
wheels also tell you this one is special. But while this one has
been upgraded, your favorite pieces might just be the
well-respect/invested factory brightwork. The contoured bumpers and
full-width grille shine with quality. And the full-length trim is
an artful wave that provides a well-defined separation line for the
two-tone.
The interior continues the custom car attitude. The exterior blue
returns and now it's joined by a tasteful white for a fresh and
attractive total appearance. The two-tone is done with style to
give you nice details, like how the exterior's trim pattern is
mimicked on the door panels. Plus, there are vintage tuck and roll
inserts in the seats. The Thunderbird steering wheel done in blue
is a subtle upgrade, and the full AutoMeter gauge package is a more
obvious hint about how this is an upgraded driver. There's plenty
of room for family and friends, and even their luggage, too. That's
why this one was upgraded to make everyone feel comfortable with
cold-blowing air conditioning, an AM/FM digital tuner, and a new
12-disc CD changer. And the two-piece tailgate makes you think
about everything from fun at ballgames to a nice way to feature
products or awards.
The engine bay has a nice presentation with clean inner walls,
ribbed valve covers, and a matching air grabber. At the center is
an upgrade to Ford's hardy 302 cubic-inch V8. It's been upgraded
with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock Performer
intake. The additions don't stop there. You have additions like an
aluminum radiator w/electric fan, a newer power front disc brakes
setup, and a four-speed transmission with highway-friendly
overdrive.
This is a distinctive classic that's been done correctly to make
sure you're memorable everywhere you go... and it's built to go
more places in comfort. That's a true ideal classic wagon. Call
