    How's this one for just coming out of a chicken barn? Cleaned up nicely. Going through the brakes now.

    Looks like a great find, very clean car. But there must be more to the story, how did you get the car?

    I've know about the car for several years. Always said if it came up for sale I wanted it. One day I got the magic call. Best I can figure it is a old restoration. Needs some work but not bad. Actually found an extra glass top in the attic of a old salvage yard building today.

    Engine Bay & a Little Elbow Grease Later - Cleaning up pretty good.
    Needs a tri power and finned valve covers.

    I can tell you're not really too interested in that old Ford, so I will pay shipping to Wyoming and take it off your hands :D

    That is a good looking old ford.
    It's good to see more Mid 50s Fords.

    Nice! Certainly couldn't have been any chickens in with it.
     
  14. wow! I've never seen a top like that and I go to a lot of car shows. would think there would be more than one out there. thats very spiffy! Imagine what the buyer felt when it was new and he was taking it home to show it off.
     
  15. Very nice glass top.

    '54 Fords have really gained in popularity in the last decade,congratulations on your new find. HRP

    Must have been covered, or the chickens were wearing diapers.
