My parents bought a used 1959 Ranch Wagon in this exact color scheme. I remember the day that they bought it in 1962. It was a 292 V8 with a 3 speed manual transmission and overdrive.
Very nice I drove a two door when I was a teen had a lot of good memories
Old cars do bring back the best memories. Thanks for watching.
Same color as my 59 Galaxy hardtop..bought it in 1965 while taking Junior College auto shop. 352" with 3 speed and O.D..
Bought an code 427" out of a wrecked drag car..rebuilt it and first hard pull scattered the tranny...trip to a junkyard and scored an R code 4 speed and rear end..all performance parts outof a second wrecked drag car. Changed out my five spoke mags for steel rims and full hubcaps with a set of Lutz cheater slicks..passed it off as a stocker when street racing Chevys..great fun messing with them...
Nice. I gotta go with you to the wrecking yards. Thanks for watching.
i really like this 59 ford wagon. i just bought a 1959 ford fairlane 500 hardtop.
We had a 59 Ford Country Sedan, bought brand new. Black/white two tone, red/white interior.
I love Wagons, and this one has got to be the most beautiful of all the years.😃
Omg what a treat to see this spectacular station wagon. Love at first sight 🤩💙
Nice wagon, i have a 59 skyliner in my gararge same color original , but repainted to surf blue, though i like that wedgewood blue a tad better, thanks for the video, regards Thomas from Lorain, Ohio
Nice wagon. The A/C unit in this vehicle is an add on unit. Factory was either Polar Aire or Select Aire.
My Dad bought a 1959 Ford Galaxie new 2 door post it was the same color had a 352/ 300 hp with 3 speed with overdrive a beautiful car
Sounds very nice and with a great color combo like this wagon. Thanks for watching Gary.
Rear facing 3rd seats were also called " Throw - up seats" and we all know why.
I just noticed the wheel cover design matches the tail light pans. We had a 59 when I was a teen and I never noticed that.
Claude Akins was washing one these when Aliens landed on Maple St. Twilight Zone. He was wearing a retired dress shirt and slacks.
Wow I know the episode but didn't realize the car. I gotta pay more attention. Thanks for watching.
my Dads first new car was a 59 ranch wagon in two tone tahitian bronze and colonial white it cost 2025 dollars
You can keep your Lamborghinis and Rolls Royces… If I ever won the lottery one of these would be first on the list.
My parents had a 1959 country squire with a 292 and a cruise-o-matic . I vaguely remember it . There were 7 of us plus my parents. So we filled it up. Too bad someone hit my mom head on in 1968. They replaced it with a 1963 Dodge wagon. The dodge was a good car with A/c. But it was UGLY.
Hope she was ok. We all seem to have station wagon memories don't we? Thanks for watching.
@@Mikesclassicautoworld My only memory as a 4 year old was that she had to go to the hospital a couple of days , got out, and went back again a day or two. But she was still able to complete that semester in school in her “new” 1963 Dodge wagon with the push button shifter.
232 cu. in. 6 cylinder, 292 cu. in., abd 332 cu. in. motor,,,,,,,
I was The 2nd owner of this wagon . I'm from Modesto California. We had it repaired with original 2tone colors it has now. And we also had it reulphostored from top to bottom to front and back. It took us 3 years to find the original roof rack. And the original design of the 3rd seat. It was And still is a beautiful wagon. I have many pictures of it. We also had installed seatbelts. Which I didn't see in the video. We had kids so we added the seat belts. Beautiful video. It brought back many memories.
Wow thats great. Seeing the car is doing fine I hope makes you happy. Hank is a great caretaker. Its living a good life. haha. Thanks for watching Rene.
I flew out to Palm Springs to specifically buy this car from you as it is very close to wagon I grew up with. Who was the original owner? Did it live on a farm in Modesto? I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
