Check out the "brand new" 55 Ford wagon in this episode of "Highway Patrol": http://www.hulu.com/watch/104142/highway-patrol-reckless-driving#x-0,vepisode,1,0 Originally aired on 10/17/55.
I cringed when I saw that pristine 4000-mile beauty rolled up on its side... There's a link to many other episodes of "Highway Patrol" at that same address. I've been looking for a source for this old TV series ever since I got my '55 Buick Special 2-door "Tourback Sedan". The California Highway Patrol used Century 2-door Tourback Sedans which were pretty much the same as my Special except for the larger engine, larger brakes and a few other heavy duty options lifted from the larger Roadmaster sedans. I'm looking forward to watching the other episodes. Thanks!
