Had a 53 Ford just like that one in 63 only 10 years old at the time it was a great 3 speed over drive I was home on leave in November 1963 getting the Ford ready for a paint job listening to the radio heard that our president was shoot in Dallas will never forget that day
I am just 3 years older than this Ford. I have always liked most cars from this time frame. If SSA sent me more money I would love to restore this '53 and drive it every day and wave to all that wave or honk as we go by. I hope you find somebody that will restore and show-off this great car, saving it from disintegrating.
In a world filled with lunacy, I come here for refuge. No matter what is going on in my tiny world, I come here and my grin grows exponentially. Thank you for doing what you do and sharing it with us all.
Nice to see it come back to life. The motor when rebuilt is probably worth more than the car as there's always a demand for flatheads out there. I like what appears to be a 1952-54 Nash you have there. Cool ! Back in 1964-65 our neighbor's son, then 17-18 had one of these Fords. After driving it for a year he left for the Army and sold it for $75 but I was too young for a license just yet. Dang !!
I am really enjoying the Flat head V8 running again. This set has been great fun! And its great seeing Stella go with you for a ride! Keep Up the good work, every night I go here to see what is new! Thanks for the fun of seeing these old cars be saved and run. BE WELL!
driving between the snowdrifts on an oil rig service road, dark, cold , 70 miles to home in a blizzard with two packs of smokes and 12 oz of whiskey to go on. Hank on the radio singing cold cold heart. Ah for the good old days......
Reminds me of a couple of cars bought by a friend of mine at 0 Over 999 Sales back then. He drove them till they quit, and took the plates off. Went back and bought another one..or two...
"Even has a holy crap handle in the back." I love that! When I was old enough to know who my grandfather was, this is the car that I remember him driving. Circa 1960.
I've just discovered you guys. Thanks for keeping these cars from being crushed. I love this Ford, I used to have a 1953 Ford Mainline until someone stole it. Wish I was closer to you.
Great job keeping the old iron from the crusher and getting them running again. And hat's off to Stella for keeping her figure despite all the treats she consumes!
true man made beauty, last year of the flathead.. brings back memories of when I was a kid admiring them.to me US cars reached there peak starting in 55 though to 65...
Double thumbs up guys. It looks like you got the passenger side hood hinge sorted too. As always, it's fun to see you guys get these old babies back to working condition.
My neighbor had a 53 with the flat head V8 and 3 on the tree, pink with a white roof. He let it sit, outside, all winter long but come summer, he would put the battery back in, and fire it up. 1 fall, an ice storm brought a tree limb down on it; severely dented the roof, but broke no glass. It was a very neat car, sounded good with glasspacks. Oh yes, btw, the hub cap is from a 69 Plymouth Fury III or VIP. I had a green sedan, same 1's.
What an enjoyable time watching the Ford running . the flat head V8 engine ran so quiet . I know you Agents are busy at doing your thing , I appreciate your time and for sharing the videos of all your cars . Ray in Pa U.S.A.
"What's it going to take to get you into this machine today?" LOL (7:24). Also, I love how you rigged that IV gas line, hooking it to the antenna above the windshield.
I'm having a pleasant Sunday afternoon watching these vids in order, (finally) It's nice to see an old Cusso coming back to life. It's only a small V8 but it has a meaty growl. I also am a big fan of green on the early 50's cars. Certain shapes seem to go with certain colours.
Great series!......ah yes, the working man's car. The kind of car Ward Cleaver would drive home Friday evenings from the legion, after 7 too many, recounting his days as a Seabee on Guadalcanal............excellent work - long may they run!
I had a buddy in 1959 that had a 53 ford conv. We put duals on it, chopped 1coil out of front springs, and 56 dodge lancer hubcaps. If I remember right, we picked up quite a few chicks with that.
Great to see that beautiful car up and running, sounds awesome! I would be very pleased to have such a fine car to drive out bush in here in central Australia, I reckon it would travel pretty well on the rough roads. I take my hat off to you blokes for getting that beast going, well done!
Great to see the old car running and pretty educational too. I'd love to find something like this and just tinker on it and get it going just like this.
I liked the part about "what's it gonna take to get you into this vehicle today?" He should have answered, "I'll have to ask my parents about my allowance first"
The hubcap is from a 1969 fury 3 like mine. We had a 1954 Ford when I was a kid. It ran great until my mom creamed the quarter panel! It had an “engine turned” dash and a Speedo with a little window on top to let in light in the day time. My Fury runs great also although the 318 has to work pretty hard to move such a heavy machine.
Thanks for saving these great cars from a time in history that should never be forgotten. I look forward to many more. Definitely one of your best "will it run" cars in my opinion.
Another awesome video. Thanks for sharing the revival of one of Henrys classics. Keep up the great work folks! Scratches behind the ears for Stella! Chuck in Kansas
That's GRAND!!! LOVE them old flatties! Thanks for the "field" test with Stella, enjoyed the heck out of it. Keep 'em coming, please!!!!!! Oh, I think that hubcap is out of a '69 Plymouth Fury 1. Had one!
Thumbs up again for saving another green car. I like inline 6cyl. engines much more and was amazed that you own so many cars with that kind of engine, including the daily driver Frazer. Propably the rest of the world assumes that nearly all American automobiles run with a V8. Maybe because of the astonishing fact: Over 1 Billion !! engines have been produced to date!!
I suppose so? I don't really try to sell any of these 50's cars, but this one deserves a proper resto that I don't have time for, so I'd let it go to a good home. I'm not in a hurry though, you know? I kinda like it sitting by the shop looking sweet and untouched. All the best from me and Stel...
More milk bones, let's go. Hahaha. I love these videos. I absolutely love these kinds of videos of working on old cars that have been sitting in fields for who knows how long and seeing them start up again.
The difference between our 53 Anniversary customline in Australia, and yours, is that ours was a 4 door. I see yours was made in Canada. Never ever knew there was a 2 door.. John, Perth, Western Australia.
These Early 50's Fords were the last of the Boot-Leggers because they were so rugged and simple to repair ...even if they were shot at by "Revenuers" they kep't on going..
I absolutely love your channel! The work you guys do just blows me away. Would love to see you do the old ford right with a decent paint job and interior. It is a two door ya know! Keep it up!
This was back when they actually took the time to DESIGN a car rather than create cookie cutter versions of all the rest. It would be great to see this old classic fully restored to it's former glory.

1953 was Ford's 50th anniversary model year. That's what the center piece of the horn ring says.

Hey, thanks for watching this stuff and making it worth doing, cheers!
Pha Q I come for the Cat and dog
👍👍
Sweet car and exquisite flathead sounds.
The inaugural SOS from Tom to close it out!... Here's to great cars and great neighbors🍻
Nice to see it come back to life. The motor when rebuilt is probably worth more than the car as there's always a demand for flatheads out there.
I like what appears to be a 1952-54 Nash you have there. Cool !

The octane drip is cracking me up.
My first car was a 1953 Ford Customline , in 1966. Before I die, I'd like to drive one of these again! Love this story!
I am really enjoying the Flat head V8 running again. This set has been great fun! And its great seeing Stella go with you for a ride! Keep Up the good work, every night I go here to see what is new! Thanks for the fun of seeing these old cars be saved and run. BE WELL!
Hey, thanks for the note, and for watching this stuff... I'll try to keep them coming... Cheers!
driving between the snowdrifts on an oil rig service road, dark, cold , 70 miles to home in a blizzard with two packs of smokes and 12 oz of whiskey to go on. Hank on the radio singing cold cold heart. Ah for the good old days......
Sounds about right sir; all the best from us here at CWMC.
Reminds me of a couple of cars bought by a friend of mine at 0 Over 999 Sales back then. He drove them till they quit, and took the plates off. Went back and bought another one..or two...

Loved this series on the 53 Fords, the beautiful Standard Poodle and the yard of amazing old independents. Thanks for a very entertaining program!
man that thing still sounds amazing. youtube re-suggested it to me haha. In the realm of pure auditory bliss the Ford Flathead V8 knows no rival.
I've just discovered you guys. Thanks for keeping these cars from being crushed. I love this Ford, I used to have a 1953 Ford Mainline until someone stole it. Wish I was closer to you.
Hey, thanks for the note and for checking out the vids! Glad you liked the old Ford... Cheers from me and Stel!
That old flat head sounds sublime!
The short range fuel tank is a genius work of form and function.
Great job keeping the old iron from the crusher and getting them running again.
And hat's off to Stella for keeping her figure despite all the treats she consumes!
Hey, thanks for the note and hi from my girl Stel...
awesome!! Not a big Ford guy but you can't beat the sound of a flat head Ford and anything old is cool in my book!! great job
Dean's words of wisdom hah... came back to the older videos, Dean always cracks me up.
I especially like the IV drip of Canadian gas. Its a runner!
it reminds me of my dad's 56 mercury . he really loved that car
Knowing how this car was abandoned and defunct, it is a great achievement to see her running /driving. Great job.
Well done again to the champions of preservation. Verdict, A ROUGH RIDE IS BETTER THAT A SMOOTH WALK. Full respect to you all from the UK
I really enjoy every episode of this show. I hope it becomes a tv show here in the States. Thank you guys. It ads enjoyment to my everyday.
This one needs to be crowned the " Moonshiner" Regards from Ody Slim
Hearing that old v8 just rumbling while your driving It is loud and proud
A 1953 Ford, TWO DOOR sedan, AND a V-8? 😳
That car is worth a restore.
LOVE it. That looks pretty darn solid. Tidy up the interior and you have a daily drive,.
Wow what a sweetheart , l grew up riding in these cars, gives me a warm fuzzy feeling,
It's great to see such a cool car brought back from the brink of oblivion.
true man made beauty, last year of the flathead.. brings back memories of when I was a kid admiring them.to me US cars reached there peak starting in 55 though to 65...
Double thumbs up guys. It looks like you got the passenger side hood hinge sorted too. As always, it's fun to see you guys get these old babies back to working condition.
Hey, thanks! Well, running for sure, but maybe not quite "working", haha!
I'm binge watching the hell outta these. Grinning from ear to ear... I know where to tune if I need a pick me up!
I never get sick of this stuff guys....it just never gets old. Stel might need a 12 step program for that " habit " of hers HAAA! Have a good guys.
You guys can rival top gear for entertainment value any day, simply brilliant.

Hey, thanks for the note... more on the way soon if anyone wants...
Well done, lads! I was watching the bottle, thinking it would run out of gas. Guess it did!
loving all the guitar at the beginnings
That is badass right there!!! Nice work, thank you for saving them sir!!
Hey, thanks for saying so, glad you liked it.
coldwarmotors are any one of your 58 Plymouth furys for sale
Dean is a powerhouse of enthusiasm.
"What's it going to take to get you into this machine today?" LOL (7:24). Also, I love how you rigged that IV gas line, hooking it to the antenna above the windshield.

Always come back to this video , one of my favorites!!! Love when the old flathead roars back to life ...cheers from Calgary
Music to my ears. Nice job. Can't wait for the next rescue.
You guys have way too much fun. Thanks for the laughs.
I absolutely love this show! I am still getting old cars and new ones going just like you guys ,eh!
Great series!......ah yes, the working man's car. The kind of car Ward Cleaver would drive home Friday evenings from the legion, after 7 too many, recounting his days as a Seabee on Guadalcanal............excellent work - long may they run!
Hey, thanks for the note; glad you liked it. More "Leave it to Beaver Beaters" coming soon...
I was eleven years old when this car was new, so I saw lots of them everyday back in the day.
Yeah, these must've been everywhere with over 300000 produced of this model alone!
I had a buddy in 1959 that had a 53 ford conv. We put duals on it, chopped 1coil out of front springs, and 56 dodge lancer hubcaps. If I remember right, we picked up quite a few chicks with that.
Love the sound of a flathead!!
Patina is awesome. If it was sealed and frozen in time just like it is, what a cool weekend cruiser it could be.
YES! Lovin' the sound. A field drive, or "paddock hack" is always a must, too.
Haha glad you liked it!
Stella is the brains in this outfit.
Great sounding flathead, what a car, well done !
Hey, thanks, glad you liked it.
I was worried about Stella in that machine! lol It looks restorable. Thanks for sharing.
That Ford sounds the business.
Great to see that beautiful car up and running, sounds awesome! I would be very pleased to have such a fine car to drive out bush in here in central Australia, I reckon it would travel pretty well on the rough roads. I take my hat off to you blokes for getting that beast going, well done!
Hey, thanks for the note; all the best from Canada!
Loved watching this guys. Great old car and your expertise is amazing. You’re also very entertaining.
2 tone green ! ! ? What strength is that beer ? No but really, love the the girl, she deserves to stay alive now.
Love the IV gas tank ! LOL!
Great to see the old car running and pretty educational too. I'd love to find something like this and just tinker on it and get it going just like this.
Hey, thanks for the note and for checking out the old Ford...
The best thing about that car is it has the right amount of doors!
I liked the part about "what's it gonna take to get you into this vehicle today?" He should have answered, "I'll have to ask my parents about my allowance first"
( glad Stella finally got her ride ).. You guys are the KING of Cobblers .. Another job well done
Hey, thanks for the note; glad you liked it... Cheers from me and Stella!
The hubcap is from a 1969 fury 3 like mine. We had a 1954 Ford when I was a kid. It ran great until my mom creamed the quarter panel! It had an “engine turned” dash and a Speedo with a little window on top to let in light in the day time. My Fury runs great also although the 318 has to work pretty hard to move such a heavy machine.
Thanks for saving these great cars from a time in history that should never be forgotten. I look forward to many more. Definitely one of your best "will it run" cars in my opinion.
Thanks for checking it out; I thought this one turned out pretty good, too. More on the way!
Little interior work and a good chrome and paint job and it will be good for a show lol.
Awesome how Stella seems to love your passion as much as you do. Man's best friend best friend for sure
Stella sure likes car rides... the fixing part maybe not so much though...
What a sweet find, nice work getting it up and running!
Hey thanks... this one was a great bit of fun and turned out just fine.
No brakes? No problem. I drove the Merc for the first year with just the parking brake to stop with. Good work. The old flathead is sounding great.
Hey, thanks for the note; glad you liked the old flattie; I was really happy how easily it came back to life!
love you guys, you're the best
Another awesome video. Thanks for sharing the revival of one of Henrys classics. Keep up the great work folks! Scratches behind the ears for Stella! Chuck in Kansas
Your vids always make me smile. Keep up the good work!
That's GRAND!!! LOVE them old flatties! Thanks for the "field" test with Stella, enjoyed the heck out of it. Keep 'em coming, please!!!!!! Oh, I think that hubcap is out of a '69 Plymouth Fury 1. Had one!
Hey thanks, and you are correct about the hubcap: 69 Fury!
Perhaps the best episode yet! Greetings from Nova Scotia

love 53's, have one, good to see another one rescude, and resurrected. great job and video.
Hey, thanks for the note and for checking out our video... Cheers from me and Stella.
How could I NOT subscribe after this...?
Good job, good show. Nice dog too. Have a good day.
love the manual choke feature, true thrifty Canada in car
Would you gents entertain any offers on that Ford? I'm so glad to see her running again, so thank you for getting the old girl back up and going.
I suppose so? I don't really try to sell any of these 50's cars, but this one deserves a proper resto that I don't have time for, so I'd let it go to a good home. I'm not in a hurry though, you know? I kinda like it sitting by the shop looking sweet and untouched. All the best from me and Stel...
I recently got the 4 door version as my first project car, cant wait to get it running
These videos are all great, the car is great and that engine sounds great!
Congratulations guys!
Thanks so much for your videos. Really enjoy them. Keep up the good work.
As an owner of a '53 Ford Custonline years ago, I appreciate your efforts. Mine always ran strong. The vacuum wipers were always fun... Happy trails!
Fuck yea. I totally love all the effort you put into the vids. Big time !!! Love em all
Hey, thanks for saying so; makes all the effort and swearing and editing and bullshit worthwhile.
Love all your videos, where are you guys, Winterpig?
Awesome. One of these days I need to head up your way and help you get one of those old buggies running.
Deal! Lots to do! See you tomorrow! Haha cheers from me and Stel.
More milk bones, let's go. Hahaha.
I love these videos. I absolutely love these kinds of videos of working on old cars that have been sitting in fields for who knows how long and seeing them start up again.

Hey, thanks for saying so! We'll get started on another driver here soon... maybe some proper body and paint, too...
This car deserves some cosmetic love!
This was back when they actually took the time to DESIGN a car rather than create cookie cutter versions of all the rest. It would be great to see this old classic fully restored to it's former glory.
perfection lads one more cruize mobile for the collection of dream machines
Great job guys.
really surprised how easy it was to get going 👍 these cars look great customized.
I don't know who I like best in these videos Dean or Stella.
Haha they both make me laugh, too...
