Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
That Lincoln isn’t a wagon, it’s a whole damn wagon train. Love it.

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
1956 Ford Ranch Wagon. It appears that this Wagon is a revised model, as the original base Ranch Wagons never had side chrome trim? |

The glass top does not look like it belong there.

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
My folks had a 54 Ford wagon with a "glass" roof, I think it was in 59 or 60. I was way too young to figure out if it was factory or custom aftermarket. Ford did the hood plexiglass in 54, possible the glass roof too on a wagon?

Here is a photo of a '54. Looks tells me a retro-fit would have been a lot easier that a later '55/56 CROWN SKYLINER.

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
Now I am wondering if the owner put a '54 roof panel (plexiglass) on the SW?

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
Family photos? No, farm life was not seen to be "photogenic" in those days. Photos were high school graduation and Christmas. My sister has the box of photos (she is the keeper of family history) so I will go through it next time we are in WI.
Dad got the wagon because the family grew and it was too cold in the winter for us older kids to ride in the bed. Always had V-8 powered cars, always had a pickup and lets not forget the John Deere .....

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons
Interesting board rack on the Ranch Wagon. Permanent mount?
