"A charming and nice example from a country where the car culture is a little different from ours."

Description

1955 Ford was newly imported from Colombia. The car's history is unknown. But it can be said to be a good copy that someone cared for and kept in order. In its home country, it is usually not strictly (in original condition) that applies, but that does not detract from the overall impression of the car.

Registration and ready for Sweden, but not inspected/moted

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    272" Y-block V8 with oil bath air cleaner and manual transmission. Single-circuit braking system and the electrics have been upgraded to 12-volt alternating current. The equipment is sparse, and the heating package is missing, for example.

  • Interior condition:

    What catches the eye first inside the car are the seats. They are covered in leather and quite far from the original. But the craftsmanship is fine and the upholstery is in very good condition. The door cards have also received the treatment but keep the original appearance in profiles and execution, the material is different, however. The carpets were replaced and in fairly good condition and the headliner was also replaced/new. More modern roller seatbelts have been fitted. On the dashboard, you can see a white cover plate in the middle to the left. This is for the controls for heating and ventilation, which this car never had.

  • Exterior condition:

    The brown colour is called Buckskin Brown but from the beginning, the car was just one colour. The sharp-sighted can see that something is not quite right with the rear wings. The lower part from the wheelhouse and back has at some point been replaced with a slightly different profile. Overall, the bodywork and paint are in healthy condition. The chrome and shiny trim are a little worn but probably original, some rust is present.

    In the boot is a simulated spare wheel. It is not a continental kit but is called a "Contoured deck kit". Accessories like this could often be obtained through dealers.

  • General condition:

    The car can be said to be in good used condition, fully technically functional and largely complete with some deviations that do not detract from the overall picture.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
