1952-59 Ford Another wagon for comparison

Since we're kicking tires on wagons here's one more to ponder.

 

This is where if you spend 5K on fixing it up, 10K might still buy a much nicer example. This car needs a lot of $$$ to make it decent. I bet there's a lot of rust that isn't showing.

 

I'd do an El Paso on it... I'm getting too old to want to gut a car and replace everything again...

 

Being that it's a Parklane its probably worth what the seller is asking. If it was your average Ranch Wagon then there's no way it would be worth that much.

 

All I know is that, according to Hagerty, wagons are going up in value. I just increased the insurance value of mine.

 

all I know is....I want that back seat!!!

 

Me too!

 

My car has gone up quite a bit too if I can believe Hagerty.

 

if that was in australia i would be all over it

 

That is a great car and a great buy. Better shape that mine when I got it.

 

If I had the space and the money and the time I would bite on this Parklane for sure.

 

I paid 5K for my Edsel Roundup wagon 9 years ago and it was a basket case needing a compleat restoration.

Its rare and I wanted one so I guess a buyer has to justify to hisself what the machine is worth to obtain.

I felt it was worth the price to get such a rare car.
