I am selling my 1956 Ford Parklane that I have owned and cared for over the past three years. This beauty is a constant trophy winner and attracts crowds wherever it goes! I’m selling her because I am thinning out my collection. The Parklane model was a one year only produced wagon with factory A/C. There were fewer then 12,000 built making it a very rare wagon. The Parklane was Launched to compete with the Chevrolet Nomad. It was a two-door sport station wagon, based on the Ford Ranch Wagon, but unlike the low end workhorse model, it was equipped with all the fittings of Ford's top end Fairlane model. The car has had a complete nut and bolt frame off restoration (8) years ago and has only 4,600 miles since. I have included a video of my car that was taken by the dealer three years ago. The car remains in perfect condition. Since that time the brakes were upgraded for much better stopping power. This car has been pampered and loved and I want it to go to a great home. Only bid if you are serious and have the funds. I have the right to cancel the listing at any time. If you need a shipper I have a good shipper I can recommend. My phone number is (917) 848-8708. The car is located in New Jersey.
