Back in the fifties the automobile competition was getting so strong that all of the manufactures were trying to find any feature that would lure potential customers into showrooms across the country. If you could get journalist to recognize your cars and do write ups on unique features they at least had a shot at getting your attention. Such was the case with the 13,144 Skyliners built in 1954 according toWikipedia. Based on the 2 door hardtop Crestline body theglass roof panel got allot of attention because it wasnew to the industryfor mass produced,affordable cars. The example you see here came to us from Southern California where it spent most ofit's life. We purchased it as a nice running and driving car where all of themechanicalsand paint had been redone. We have spent the better part of a month installing all of the trim, interior, and finishing the trunkcompartment. The solid body lent itself to a very nice restoration. We have not had a Ford like this in a long time. It runs and drives terrific with a rebuilt power train featuring the new for 54 over head valve 239 c.i.d. V-8 mated to a smooth shifting 3 speed manual transmission. The overdrive is notpresently hooked up and does not operate. No big deal because it never gets used anyway. The refurbished chassis gives it asmooth comfortable ride.It was restored to original specs without a bunch of modifications so even a fussy collector can appreciate this Fords factory equipment. It has manual steering but feels like power assist was added due to having the steering box rebuilt with all of the other suspension components. It steers easily! Ford styling was really coming into it's own in 1954 and the famous Skyliner is one of the most desirableFord of the fifties. Make this one yours and enjoy classic cruising like never before. Low rate, long term financing is easily available along with cheap collector car insurance and professional delivery.
