I'm not sure if this is ironic or just weird. I've had this pic in my file of curiosities for a couple years now.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

That '56 Custom Ranch Wagon gets my heart pumpin'. 312 T-bird special engine, next you'll tell us it's got 3 on the tree (although I'd even take it with the Fordomatic). Hey, my birthday is less than a couple months away. Maybe you guys could take up a collection and surprise me......................

Two possibilities exist:

Both are equally terrifying.

Again Joe, good to see you back in the mix. Yeah, but there are others out there too. Here's one that wasn't likely built by the same guy, but looks like they went to the same design school.The side view only looks a little weird, but the front........................

That T-coupe would be fun with real steel after all my messing with a 'glass body but I am tapped out and just hope to finish my '29. My family had a '55 Ford two-door wagon and swapped out the 272-Y when it got old and replaced it with a 292-Y from a dealer. It took a week and a comedy of figuring out eight plug wires which we disconnected without marking them. After all of that the crank pulley wobbled when we started it up due to a bent crank and to our relief and amazement the Ford agency from which we bought the engine honored the guarantee, towed the car to the agency and replaced the 292-Y in one day at the agency which amazed us since my Dad and I had sweated a whole week to try to finish the swap! On second thought the Model A Tudor with 16" wheels would be a more sensible starting point and still real steel!
