Total Restoration in 2 Minutes: 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon Field Car to Daily Driver in under a year!

This 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon hauled corn to market for years until it was parked in a field, used for parts and left for dead.
My good friend and I restored the car in under a year to get it ready for the Lonestar Roundup. A few years later I took the old wagon on a cross country tour of more than 3500 miles.
Soon after I sold the old wagon to my friends wife and she driven it ever since.
Fatman front suspension
Disc brakes rear
Vintage air
Engine: Now a 6.0 LS swap (although I originally had a 5.0 Ford in there)
Despite a fender bender, the old girl is still going strong.

Your 55 Rannch Wagon started out almost the same color as mine was but mine was a touch more green than blue, but with the same bare trim level. Mine was originally a 223 straight 6 with a 3 spd and had the rare Branding Iron seat covers. I wish I still had it.

That spray can shot was a joke!
