You are correct that most all Fords had that clear speedometer that year, even the T Birds. An interesting fact about those speedometer was that at night, with the dash lights on, the speedometer was projected up and across the windshield. I think Ford accidentally created a primitive "Heads Up Display" because you could see your speed anywhere in the car!
I didn’t know about the heads up display thing I’ll have to try that in the dark one time. I looked for a night shot of the speedometer because I didn’t know what it looked like at night
We had one with the base V-8 and Fordomatic. The engine was relatively noisy, even when new. I believe our V-8 model had an automatic choke. It was reliable for the most part but prone to overheating in stop-and-go traffic in the summer. Trying to re-start a warm engine would often cause carburetor flooding. It was not one of the better vehicles we ever had. When it was a few years old my Dad traded it for a much nicer Chevrolet wagon with none of those issues.
The ranch wagon isn’t my favorite design but it sucks that it wasn’t as good as the advertisement claimed.. thinking about it I don’t know what favorite wagon is I really like 59 ambassador wagon.. or 2dr Nash wagon but there are a lot to review to find out. =)
My Dad had one of the four door wagons you described when we got it it was on it's last legs. The great part the car it had a third seat so it was more attractive to girls for cruising its easers to find a bunch of girls then one. They felt safe.
Nice, thanks. My first car, at 17, handed down as my dad got a new 64 Dodge truck, he used as a carpenter, both vehicles, to haul stuff, tools, etc. Good solid car, hard to beat up, even for a teenager growing up in L.A. at the time. White with red interior, Engine was "bullet proof", transmission, "needed occasional work"! LOL Smooth running at 75 mph, had 272, 2bbl, and automatic. Kept it clean and traded it in for a few bucks when I bought a new Mercury Cyclone GT 390 in 66, it was a 67, about 9 months before I got drafted in Army, May 67. Good old days, especially if you have survived to remember them!! LOL :D
Although Ford had the see-through speedometer in 1954 too - the 1955 instrument panel, with all of its round dials, was called "Astra-Dial Instrumentation" by Ford, and it was a one-year only instrument panel. The aqua painted metal shroud surrounding the see-through speedo does not fit correctly...I also noticed the leading edge of the hood does not line-up well with the inside bottom edge of the front fenders. Otherwise - looks like a cool wagon - you don't see many of the tudor wagons! 1955 Fords were still 6 volt electrical systems - you'll find that many have been converted to 12 volt - which is desirable - a 12 volt battery has a lot more cranking amps for starting the car - especially when it's hot. I added an electric, thermostatically controlled pusher fan (in front of radiator and behind the grill) to my 1955 Ford - it runs fine in hot weather - no over-heating, no vapor lock. Fords back then were very solid cars - Chevys - by contrast - were tinny!
In the small town of my childhood, my dad had a full service Mobil Gas Station. We got a new 1955 4 door wagon with the six cylinder and three speed manual on the column. No power steering or brakes. Good heater (northern Michigan) and a am radio. Seat belts? Yeah, right, har har. In 1958 with a slight recession, the Ford dealer where dad got the 55 was offering great deals to sell off cars, so we then got a 1958 model. V8, automatic and power steering. What an upgrade. Much later, in high school my first car was a 55 Ford Victoria Hardtop, V8, and a three speed manual which got converted to a Mr Gasket floor shift. Also dual exhausts with Smitty glass packs. Great car, never had any problems with it. Thanks for your video, your blue color is a terrific choice.
I think you’re having fun 🤩. Ford’s equivalent to the Chevy Nomad never got the same adoration. This particular car is in great shape but it’s an example of the plain Jane model, which there were plenty of. The colors are definitely ‘50’s.
Park lane apparently was supposed to compete with the Chevy nomad I never saw a park lane wagon before but will review one when I find one =) but from what I’ve read parklane left a lot to be desired.
We had a Ranch Wagon a 56, it was a very good car. But the Y - Block motor had rocker arm issues and we had to have a outside oiling kit put on it. The big issue with the Y - Block rocker arm oiling, non hydraulic lifters and it was very a very heavy motor. Not a bad motor but rocker arm oiling was an issue with all the early Y - Blocks. If restoring one keep in mind the 53, 54, 55 and 56's stare many body parts and some other parts too. Really good family car for it's time.
I’ve read that was an issue with the Y block design had oiling problems and could over heat easy. I might do a Y block episode I’ve been working one this episodes with three automotive visionary’s for the last few days hopefully post today
Back in the fifties my dad got a 57 Ranch Wagon, what a difference 2 years makes. It had the 312 Thunderbird V8 & was a great red & white beauty!!! Sadly, in 1963 it got rear ended by a honey wagon & was totaled!!! 🥺
@@What.its.like. BTW, a "honey wagon" is what we called a septic tank draining vehicle, a big truck with a tank full of shit. What a way to go for that old Ford, eh?
Great video and a very nice resto… the 1955 Ford wagon had everything a family needed for a car. I think that front seat belts with the aircraft type buckles were available from the Ford dealer.
Thank you this example wasn’t stock it’s powered by 289 v8 didn’t show the engine for that reason seats looked perfect so they were probably redone because if one touches the material on a seat that’s 70+ years old it doesn’t feel new unless it’s in a perfect climate controlled environment it’s life, that’s what’s great about driving them if parts are in demand they will keep making them and will see more on the road these cars are machines need to be used and shared so others can experience them too.. sometimes it depends on the car I get emotional when I see say a 1940s senior packard because those cars had class and style and presence that modern cars don’t have. Get emotional because it’s an era long gone and I wasn’t here for, but with technology can share it on here talk and share experiences it’s what I love most about this CZcams channel is hearing the stories and experiences that everyone has had, which the internet can tell you about but hearing it from people who lived it is way more personal =)
@@What.its.like. Yup, a 351 Cleveland would be nicer in the vehicle, plenty of room for it. I had one in my 70 Mustang; it went like a "raped ape" (as we said back in the day) in that car and would move this wagon nicely too!
I bought one of these when in the Army. On the way back to base the thing overheated sending a cloud of vapor into the sky. I let it cool, added water and drove it back and traded it in on something different. Never looked back.
Thank you’d so much for sharing that it’s turning out not to be a very reliable choice I wonder if fords other products had same problems like fairlane and Tbird
As a kid in the 70's I used to walk the neighborhood and our swim club looking at cars (I'd go right up the driveways, peering in). Later, with a 2 wheeler and later still further afield with a 10 speed for my 10th birthday - quite an investment for my lower middle class parents, but they saw the need - I hit strip shopping parking lots, churches, etc.) Ranch wagons were rare, so I always took notice. Tons of Squires, a goodly amount of Country Sedans, but not many of the strippers, so I was fascinated. By 73-74, the last years, very few at all. We had a 71 Galaxie 500 4dr hardtop, so I could compare interior trim. Up the street a fire chief had a Custom 4dr (red, naturally) and that, being a few years older was totally taxi :) BTW - that chrome trim on the B pillar is incorrect. Partially lifted from a 56 Park Lane - where both the door frame itself and trailing edge would be chrome, both having the same ribbed detail.
Awesome story I wasn’t sure if the chrome was right or maybe it was a custom ranch model, there wasn’t any information, well information was spotty at best I could find any information on what differences between custom and regular ranch aside from one being a custom ranch and base ranch.
We had a 1959 Ford with the Y-block v-8. I have read these have oiling issues, but we had no trouble. It was very heavy though. I had to help fix a flat at 14.
@@ronschlorff7089 Now they may have locked lug nuts on the wheels so the tires cannot easily be changed. And anything other than changing tires requires a bunch of electronic test equipment.
our family car was a 1955 ford wagon red and white no sliding glass it did not have the cross over pipe , i think it did not have power steering that car ran for a long time my father was a mechanic and kept in tip top shape
Yup, even a nerdy kid in the 60's or earlier could keep a car in "tip top shape", especially if he had friends who knew some mechanical stuff!! We had a friend who owned a gas station, I used to fill up for free then, all of about 5 bucks worth if I paid; since gas was about 40 cents for regular, and "ethyl" was a whopping 50 cents/gallon! What was the dif.? We drilled and refined much of our own oil then, and just started to get some form Mideast. But never Russia they were our mortal enemy then, and they still are! :D
Another great video. I see you are starting to play with different features in you editing. Cool. I just love the '55 & '56 Fords. FoMoCo in general had me, certainly '55 to '59. Not a great fan of the ever popular tri-five Chevrolets. Very nice and all but not for me. Except Chevrolet for '55 did have a much quieter engine. Why Ford decided to go with solid lifters on the Y-block engines is beyond me. Far noisier that hydraulics that GM produced. So style, Ford then Engines to GM, all divisions. Boneheaded ideas like the solid lifters is what kept Ford at #2, except '57 and '59. Love the '59's.
I was a ford guy growing up now I’m not “brand loyal” I like everything now the more unique the better studebakers and packards mash Hudson amc I like all of it =)
I had the 56 Belaire, was first wife's, drove cross country to my Army duty station in 1968, L.A. to Washington D.C. no problems, 265 with 2bbl and automatic. Drove it home after discharged in 69, had heating probs but drove only at night to solve that issue!! :D
All those things that used to be optional accessories are now standard on most every vehicle nowadays. Also when did Ford change the logo to the blue oval with the word “Ford “ in script?
Bit of a trick question I guess they used the blue oval since 1912 I found this link not sure why they changed it in the 50s but I personally like the 50s ford logo crest www.designyourway.net/blog/graphic-design/the-ford-logo-design/

Thanks for the history of the Ford logo. When they were making Ford Commercial trucks and Ford farm tractors the Ford logo was a bit different from the crest of the cars. The logo was a crest but in the center was a gear shape.
The only cons are impatient people trying to move levers they've never seen before in a manor that breaks them. I had a locking wing window where you had to push the button in before turning the latch. A co-worker old enough to know better couldn't figure it out and just twisted it off.

You are confusing us. You stated that the wagon was available in three door or five door yet mention a two door. Today's hatchbacks are considered a door so my Honda FIT is a five door.

One of the most beautiful wagons ever produced
yup, Ford's answer to the Nomad, sort of!! I had one, RW, and miss it; was my first car! :D

No, it would not be in reverse. It would show correct because it's projected in reverse out the back of the instrument panel.
