Description

This Ford was bought in 1956 by the current owner's father. They took the train from Vittsjö to Stockholm to pick up the car that was shining in the showrook. The trip went well and the current owner remembers at the time he was 15 years old he also remembers that his father wanted a Crown Victoria but that it was considered too flashy, as he had assignments in church in the municipality.
The car was used for several years, but his wife thought it was heavy and difficult to drive, a VW was bought for her which was used by the whole family and the Ford was driven sparingly.
It has always been garaged on the same farm as it is today since 1956 and at the death of the father, the son (current owner) inherited it and he lives next door so it was allowed to remain in the garage.
For a period over, it fell out of the register and had to be newly registered in 1994 with the current number.
Knowledgeable people in the family have helped to take care of it and maintain its patinated condition.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
