Beautiful 1964 Ford Country Sedan. This is not just any Ford Wagon; this is a fire breathing, pavement pounding beast that brings attitude to one of the most iconic periods for Ford Wagons. A 1964 Ford wagon is a high water mark for full size Fords especially wagons. The beautifully proportioned "Space Race" inspired body lines with the Rocketship taillights, make the 1964 Ford wagon arguably one the best looking wagons. This Country Sedan began life January 29th. This Country Sedan was born with a Z code "Thunderbird" 390cid V8 motor with a Cruise O Matic transmission. Finished in Wimbeldon White with a Beige interior, with the optional Swing A Way Steering Wheel, Power Windows, Power Seat, Selectaire Air Conditioning. Other than not being a country squire this is a very highly optioned wagon with essentially the best drivetrain in its original form. But that clearly was not enough for this hot rodder. The 390cid V8 was replaced with a 428cid v8 motor. Not just any 428, the details matter and this is a period correct hot rod motor and was built with a formula that later would be known as a Cobra Jet 428. A 1966 428 block, with Edelbrock 427 big valve Aluminum heads, Giovannon Cam, with authentic Mercury chrome valve covers. Inhaling through a high rise aluminum intake manifold, and exhaling through 1963-64 Ford 427 cast iron long tube headers. The transmission was upgraded to a heavy duty C6 Cruise O Matic transmission. To compensate for the increase size the installation was performed the right way with the crossmember relocation custom fabricated and welded in place. What goes fast must stop, so the front brakes have been upgraded to Disc brakes along with period correct American Racing TTO Mag wheels with new tires. "Tasteful Modifications" has become a cliche term that extenuates what's tasteful is only in the eyes of the beholder which more often than not is only the seller. This is not one of those examples. This is carefully thought out hot rod wagon, upgraded with authentic period correct parts while retaining most of its originality.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to cruise this one of kind wagon. Cosmetically this car is absolutely stunning. The original Wimbledon White was refinished with an addition of a brown roof. The body is very straight with no dents and no rust. The floors are solid with no rust. All of the chrome and stainless grille pieces and emblems are original to the car. The orignal bumpers are in good shape. The original Fairlane rear taillights were upgraded to original Galaxie taillights. The car has all of the original glass that has been lightly tinted. The wheels are 15 inch American Racing TTOs with New Cooper Cobra Radial T/A tires. Step inside this wagon and you're stepping back into 1964. The original Beige interior is in great shape. The original dash is flawless with no cracks. All of the original stainless gauges are in great shape and functional. The original swing A way steering wheel is in great shape. The original SelectAire AC unit is in great shape and functional. The original carpet is in great shape with no rips or tears. The seats as well are in great shape with no rips or tears. The original headliner is in great shape with no holes. All of the door panels are original and all of the power windows are functional. Mechanically this Ford is a beast. As mentioned earlier this is a well thought out build complete with original period correct Ford parts. It runs and drives great.
