another very nice '58 Ford 2-Door Ranch Wagon on eBay - Concord, CA

It must be getting close to spring 'cause suddenly the nice cars are beginning to appear for sale on eBay.

Another beauty:

... but on second glance I prefer the green/lime green '59 Ranch Wagon:

This one has the look of a too-obvious restoration, and not done that well either. Notice the carpet in the rear seats. And everything in the rear cargo area has been painted over somewhat indiscriminately. (I know, picky, picky, picky ... )

But if you parked it in my driveway and handed over the keys, I wouldn't say no.

 

What you talkin bout boy? I love it. If I parked in your driveway I'd lock the doors so you couldn't get in it.

 

Ah, c'mon Cat! After a few of those good Canadian beers we'd be out cruisin' the Hull strip. And you'd be letting me drive.

 

After a few Canadian beers I'd have to let you drive.
I do really like the colors of that wagon. Even the dog dish hubcaps look nice on it. I agree on the interior paint in back. Seems like it needs a little of another color here and there. But if we fill it with cases of beer and a couple surf boards no one will notice.

 

what's this about beer and I am not supposed to notice , nice longroof so what time do we pop a top apparently I have a head start

 

The waves in the door panels are a nice touch.

 

I was going to mention that but I thought I was already being too critical of this car.

 

I went back and looked closely at the door panels. Then realized maybe you meant the inner door panels. ?????? I saw nothing on the outside that looked wavey or bad. As far as those inner panels that's an easy fix. Altho for that much money the panels should be way better. Seems both inner doors have the same problems.
Pass me another Bud Lite and I'll bet they'll soon look better.

 

That thing is nice!

 

Stunning wagon. I love the "three on the tree". I wonder if it has power steering. That baby'd be a bear to drive without it, but who cares, right? $20K. Yikes.

 

Cat, next time you're in an ABC Liquor store see if you can find this:

At 9.0% alcohol they're a real kick! Everything looks better after a couple of these.

After a toilet/tap water bud lite or 2 (0.0000000000001 alcohol), you offer Cat a 9.0% beer!? Let him crawl off into the swamp and die of natural causes, don't kill him with alcohol poisoning!

We still like the old buzzard!

Snooterbuckets---power steering. That baby'd be a bear to drive without it
My 1955 Chevy wagon has 215X15 tires and no powersteering. I don't parrellel park so no problem. After a couple cans of that 9% beer it would be a breeze to steer.
