Re: wagon seat brackets

For what it is worth, these are pictures of the wagon seat bracket on my ‘56 Parklane. Not exactly the same as yours, but similar in concept.

Re: Paint code

Hope this link works, your paint code might be here. Look through all of the pages that come up when you search on a ‘50 Ford.

Re: What year and what is it worth?

Thanks again for all of the input! Good advice, Mart, on dealing with my cousin. The truck is on a farm about an hour northwest of Bemidji, MN. That makes it about a 4 1/2 hour drive for me from...

Re: What year and what is it worth?

Good question on the title. I believe a sale can be made without a title but it is more complicated. I don’t know if clear ownership has been established within my cousin’s clan as my uncle passed...

Re: What year and what is it worth?

Re: What year and what is it worth?

Thanks for all of the feedback. The only F1s for sale I see online are either redone and expensive, or an absolute basket case. The asking prices for the basket cases at times seem outrageous, but I...

What year and what is it worth?

I am going to try and convince my cousin to part with her grandfather’s (my uncle’s) F1. It has sentimental value to her, but it is lying in a small garage that may fall down any day. I think it is...

Re: '56 Parklane rear seat differences.

Hi RocketsGarage

I don’t know if this is relevant for your situation, but I looked at the bracket on the backseat of my Parklane and it appears different than yours. I don’t know if there have...

Re: Two-Door Ford and Mercury Wagons

Keen eye on my Parklane, Daves55. The bumper that was on it was in bad shape, and I really like the look of the exhaust cutouts. I’ve since upgraded the exhaust to include an H pipe and porter glass...

Re: 55 fairlane front bumper bracket.

Try Norbert Doll, 405-372-6606 out of Oklahoma. It’s been a few years since I dealt with him - he specializes in mid-fifties Fords.
