Default Fords in Winter

We’ve seen a lot of beautiful old Fords on the forum decked-out for the holidays, cruisin’ a snowy road or biding their time in a wintry field. We thought it would be fun to display everyone’s favorite winter Ford photos in a Christmas Day slide show.

Help us show off your holiday or snow covered Ford this Christmas! Email a picture with a short description to [email protected] by Monday, December 22nd then watch for it Christmas Day! We will link to the slide show from our homepage and Facebook page.

Lookin' forward to seeing everyone's car!

The snow here is just the way we like it, nonexistent... But that doesn't dampen our Christmas Spirit. Merry Christmas From Tampa, Florida.

Santa with sunglasses. That's a new twist. But I still admire your truck.

Got enough snow here but we have not seen the sun all week. Here is one I took of the Merc a few years ago on a sunny snowy day.

Now that's the funniest thing I have read in months. I spit my mouthful of coffee across the table.

That's a nice picture. That would have been a great picture if that power pole wasn't growing directly out of the top of the car. DD

I had mine out today in the Chicago Metro / Hammond, Indiana, area.
No snow (yet). If it is dry out with no snow or rain, I will drive it. Cold don't matter.
After some years of operating heavy equipment with no heat, the cold don't bug me so much.
