Description of 1955 Ford Crown Victoria CROWN

WE ARE LISTING OUR 1955 FORD CROWN VICTORIA (CANADIAN) METEOR RIDEAU. THIS IS A VERY RARE CAR WITH ONLY 151 MADE. WE HAVE ONLY FOUND SIX THAT STILL EXIST. THERE MIGHT BE A FEW MORE SOME WHERE OUT THERE? THREE IN CANADA, TWO ON THE ROAD AND ONE NEEDING FULL RESTORATION& THREE IN THE USA, ONE BEING RESTORED ONE NEEDING RESTORATION AND OURS.ONLY THREE ON THE ROAD COUNTING OURS. OUR CAR IS SEASPRITE GREEN & ARTIC WHITE. WE ARE LONG TIME MEMBERS OF THE CROWN VICTORIA ASSOCIATION AND HAVE ATTENDED MANY NATIONAL MEETS. WHEN WE SAW OUR FIRST CANADIAN FORD WEHOPED TO BE ABLETO OWN ONE SOME DAY. THIS ONE CAME UP FOR SALE AND WE WERE LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO END UP WITH IT. THE LAST OWNER TOLD ME ALOT OF THINGS THAT WERE NOT RIGHT ON THE CROWN METEOR. SO AFTER TWO YEARS OF WORKING ON IT, I FINALLY HAVE IT WHERE I WANT IT. I WORKED WITH THE C.V.A.CHIEF JUDGE, WHO IS A CANADIAN NATIVE AND REALLY KNOWS THESE CARS,TO MAKE SURE THECOLORS AND ETC WEREDONE CORRECTLY. WE HAD NEVER SEEN A 55 CRN METEOR BEFORE AND THERE HAD NEVER BEEN ONE AT A CVA NATIONAL SHOW. ONE OF THE C.V.A.'SFOUNDING FATHERS FOUND OUT THAT I HAD ONE AND WANTED ME TO BRING IT TO THE NATIONAL SHOW. I WASN'T EVEN DONE WORKING ON IT, BUT IT STILL EARNED A 2ND PLACE.THE BODY WORK WAS DONE BEFORE I PURCHASED IT, AND A GOOD JOB WAS DONE. NO RUST FENDERS, FLOORS, CROSSMEMBER, ROCKERS, QUARTERS, ALL SOLID STEEL, NO BONDO.

I'M NOT SAYING THIS METEOR IS PERFECT-PERFECT, BUT IT IS SUPER NICE AND THIS CROWN METEOR RUNS & DRIVES GREAT! THE POWER STEERING WORKS GREAT, DOES NOT LEAK, THE GEAR BOX IS TIGHT, AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTH. IF YOU WANT A GOOD RARE CAR TO SHOW OR DRIVE ANYWHERE OR EVEN TO SHOW IN A MUSEUM, THIS ONE IS READY FOR A NEW OWNER. MY FRIENDS ASK ME HOW WE CAN SELL THIS BEAUTIFUL RARE CAR, BUT WHEN YOU GET OLDER YOU HAVE TO START LETTING GO. I AM SURE I HAVE FORGOTTEN SOMETHING, SO GIVE ME A CALL 870-431-5107. PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE IF NO ANSWER. WE WOULD LIKE A $500.00 DEPOSIT VIA PAY PAL, IF THE CAR SELLS, AND THE BALANCE BY A BANK TO BANK TRANSFER OR CASH, UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS ARE MADE. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!
