Hi guys, I Just stumbled across this group, thought i'd do an intro as per the rules. I've got a right hand drive '55 Ranchwagon that is getting the treatment at the moment. -Late model front clip z'd 2" -6" c notch in the rear -Triangulated 4-link in the rear, set level at 100mm ride height -All new brakes -SBC -Airbagged -Lays frame on 29" tall Coker WWW's -Major floor mods -Custom tail-lights -Will get some custom work. Grille, headlight, subtle mods Heres a wee shot. Will maybe do a build thread one day, if anyones interested.
Welcome Rancho55, nice wagon, a lot of work has been done to it and I'm sure most of us would like to see more. Thanks for sharing.
Love that right hand drive... That would be so cool here in the states. Southern California says WELCOME. Gerry
Howdy all!!! Well I think i've had my arm twisted enough to do a build thread on this so will get onto it this week or so. Body's off the frame at the mo so a good chance to see the frankenstein it's become!! Haha.
Hey Rancho , welcome along from another Kiwi doing a RHD '55 ranchwagon . Some pics of Wifeys car in my albums . Yours looks like a decent car you've started with, keen to see more pics . What part of NZ are you in ? Hey also interesting yours has '56 Side trim on it ?
Nice wagon 4t6ford, looks as rusty as mine!! Im in the deep south, not far north of Invercargill for now. Will post some pics once I find enough hours in the day to do so, but for now it's all work work work on the wagon
'56 trim came on the car, seems it had a wee front punt in it's life somewhere so has had 56 guard front sections welded in and the grille added too. I actually like the 56 trim more so is a wee bonus in a way. Lucky i lopped off the og suspension in case it was crook from the hit too huh
Welcome to the best Ford group you will ever find . That is a really sweet wagon so far ! I love the stance it has right now and with the WWW that really sets off that wagon . I am also a huge lover of wagons myself . I have a wagon right now , but it's not a Ford . I have owned many wagons in my life time and even drag raced one ! The 50's Ford wagons were one of my favorites wagons , hands down . Hope to see the rest of the build as well ! Jim
Welcome to the HAMB from California.What a sweet ride. Keep posting so we can keep an eye on it's progress.
