Station wagons from the mid-50s were built for families, but this 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon Restomod breaks that mold completely. Desert Tan paint that flows across every panel while the white roof creates a striking two-tone combination. The two-door wagon body rides on 17" Vision wheels wrapped in 215/55R17 tires at all four corners. Chrome and brightwork complement the exterior, while the glass and gaskets maintain their integrity throughout the build.
Saddle leather dominates the cabin with Italian craftsmanship that transforms the entire interior. Custom bucket seats provide individual comfort while the center console houses a tall pistol shifter that puts gear changes right where they belong. Dakota Digital gauges replace the original instruments in the 1956 dash conversion, giving precise readings with modern reliability. Power steering makes handling effortless while the Bluetooth-enabled stereo system provides entertainment without the clutter of traditional radio controls.
Power comes from a 351 Windsor V8 roller motor equipped with E303 cam, GT40 heads, and an Edelbrock carburetor that feeds the built engine. The T5 5-speed manual transmission uses a McLeod hydraulic clutch for smooth engagement and precise shifts. Ford 9" rear axle handles the power transfer while the front coil spring suspension with sway bar and rear leaf springs maintain the classic ride. Power disc brakes up front provide stopping power while MagnaFlow dual exhaust gives this wagon the sound to match its performance upgrades.
