Customs Images of tri-five Ford's...

Mine at a local "cruise night" last night...

 

I like all these old Ford, Lincoln, Mercury products. The 52-54 are pretty much the same car underneath, so I include them in the same vein of likable models. Hard to say which one I like best.

 

I don't care how good looking you are. Ain't nobody sitting on the hood of my car!

 

Especially with a heal of a shoe digging in to help you from sliding off.

 

Wish that I had a better picture of this one...

 

I have one exception.. Annette sitting on the right fender of a dirt track 56 Ford..

 

We just parted with this 56 Customline.
351W, C6 auto. My girl wanted to sell it to focus on her business. Since we had it we changed the wheels/tires, added pinstriping, and lowered it, along with other odds and ends. Was a cool looking car. If she ends up looking for another ride it will def be a 50’s Ford.

 

I've always thought that the '55 Customline was the best looking permutation of tri-five Ford (see my old car below), but I've come around to like the '56 Customline too. If I were looking for another car, I might choose a '56 Customline Victoria.

 

I always liked yours a lot!

 

Thank you. I tried to assemble all the best looking components from '55 & '56 Fords (and Merc wagons) to make the best-looking car possible from that family. To my eyes, I succeeded; I was really proud of the way that car turned out.

 

I'm not a fan of these with a flipped bumper. This is all I see
