1955 Ford Ranch Wagon Back Seat Assembly
I am in the process now of reassembling the back seat and cargo area of my 55 wagon project. Would anybody have a Ford Illustrations manual for the 55 Ranch Wagon? My 49-59 Ford Illustrations Manual does not have a section that covers the station wagon.
The back seat , both the bottom cushion and the back upright seat are attached to metal panels that are hinged on the bottom into floor mounted brackets. This allows the upright back cushion to fold forward over the bottom seat cushion , thus expanding the rear deck forward for a longer cargo area. I believe I have all the parts and pieces for this rear seat assembly , I just need to know how it all fits together. An illustration would really help. Thanks, Steve Fritz |

Re: 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon Back Seat Assembly
56 sedandelivery......that second picture is perfect! What manual did this come out of please? Its kind of hard to read on this message system attachment. I hate to bother you , but would it be too much trouble for you to snap a close up picture of this page and email it to me? I could then expand it and get a closer more readable illustration.
Thanks so much for your time. Steve [email protected] 608-738-1861 |

Re: 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon Back Seat Assembly
Thanks to 56 sedandelivery , he sent me these diagrams out of the 49-59 Ford Illustrations manual. I was able to enlarge and read all the part numbers etc.
So the parts I am missing are the REAR SEAT BACK STOP ANCHOR . these are the small bars that are attached to the rear seat back metal frame. They engage the STOP ASSY. REAR SEAT BACK ON WHEELHOUSE. Which is a reciever bracket that mounts on the upper side of the wheel housing on each side of that rear seat frame. So that gives support to the back seat cushion frame when people are sitting in the back seat , keeps them from tipping over when they lean back in the seat. Now I need to find a parts car or source of station wagon parts , the 55 and 56 Ranch wagon and also the 4 door wagon , used these. I will run an ad in the parts wanted section here on Ford Barn. Any leads on where I might find these would be greatly appreciated. [email protected] Thanks again to all that responded. Merry Christmas! Steve |
