Vehicle Description

1955 Ford Crown Victoria

Exterior
With a true to form 50s color palette, we are greeted with
straight steel panels minding their gaps, and bathed in two tone
Robin Egg Blue with Snowshoe white accenting. The paint is faded
and shows some chipping and a bit of bubbling on earlier repairs.
It is broken up by the polished stainless steel of the now famous
Fairlane strip which flows gracefully from the top of the front
fenders down the side of the car and hits the tail lights mid
fender. Centered on the Fairlane strip in the middle of the doors
are great looking badging emblems with gold crown, and silver
Victoria in your grandmothers handwriting. Along the rocker panels
of the car, stainless trim highlights wheel wells where some
rusting is taking place underneath. Some delaminated glass that is
in somewhat clear condition but showing some wear, is accented by
the Crown Victoria exclusive chrome basket handle roof piece and
stainless window trim. The roof is pretty in Snowshoe White and has
wonderfully curved rear windows heading toward the B pillars.
Overall the chrome shows some dimpling and pitting. Out back, the
jet-age taillight lenses look new and are topped by a small fin
which houses the backup lights. The trunk is backed by a vertically
guarded chromed bumper. Details abound, with a unique finned radio
antenna mounted on the drivers rear quarter top. Door key lock
cylinder covers all around, and a chromed exterior rear view mirror
mounted on the drivers door. Wide whites wrap polished moon capped
wheel covers that are in a field of black steel wheels.

Interior
Looking like it was plucked right out of a Silk City Dining Car,
the beautiful white and aqua combo has a firm but comfortable feel,
as well as all the aesthetics that come with the mid 50s. The door
panels which get their cue from the "Fairlane Strip" are aqua up
top, and white on the bottom. Climb in and youll be surrounded by
aqua horizontal tufted tuck and roll inserts and ultra wide white
vinyl bolsters which are on front and back benches. The back bench
is noteworthy as it has an armrest inserted and above is framed by
a multiple stepped "V" with the Ford logo inside...just beautifully
cool in its own way. These seats are fronted by a perfect dash in
aqua and white metal, and with all correct circular instruments.
The speedo is under a curved insert in front of the original
steering wheel. All this is floating within a good looking but
slightly soiled aqua low pile carpet. The headliner is just as
impressive on the inside with the stainless basket handle breaking
it up the white vinyl. The trunk has had the once over with robin
egg blue paint, and hasan aqua carpeted liner on the bottom.
