WTB Early 50's Ford Ranch Wagon

Post by Kid »

I am looking to buy one of these for my wife, All the years we have been together and doing car shows she has never had an interest in any car or truck until yesterday. She seen an early 50's Ranch Wagon and really liked it. I would like a project car that is mostly complete and solid but in need of an engine and trans. If you know of one that is driver quality I would be interested in that also, Not wanting to pay the $15,000 for one all finished that I will have to make changes to. I would be interested in trading our 63 T Bird or possibly our 65 Slick or even my 64 Slick chop top if someone is looking....................Kid

Steve, I almost did not want to click the link you posted,LOL


mrgoob. Anyone but the last one would do, I seen the first one in Montana but with only a bill of sale I wasnt sure about it. I have a 302 engine and auto trans to put in it for her. Both body styles are pretty close to each other and look alot alike to me

Darrel I can help walk you how to get a title in Montana if need be. It's not that hard to do.

You can apply for a bonded title with a bill of sale, a picture of the vehicle, and a vin # in iowa takes about 6 week to get ? go to local DMV office to get paperwork, if they have an old registration for tag it goes faster. get vin # they will run if for you first to check for any liens or if stolen :2cents:
