Built for export 1956 Ford Crown Victoria Glass TopBuilt at Mahwah Plant in New Jersey. Exported to Peru, South America. 3 are known to exist only 1956 in North America. This car is extremely rare and very unique.As a little background on the car, Fords of the early 50's were well built but they were also relatively conservative. A dose of style was in order, and the arrival of Franklin Q. Hershey signaled the dawn of a new era, as Fords were suddenly much more exciting. The top of the line was the flashy new Fairlane Crown Victoria, or which nearly 10,000 were built. The most Futuristic of these were the new glass tops, which were fitted with a tinted plexiglass roof section over the front seats. A zip-out liner gave shelter from the sun on hot days, but when removed it gave a dazzling effect. Allowing the passengers spectacular views of blue skies and starry nights. At $70 more however it was a little pricey and just 603 were built, making these the rarest and most desirable of the Crown Victoria's.In all honesty this 56 Ford is very rusty but has all body parts included to restore to a factory original. Has a 302 ci w/ 5 speed manual transmission that runs very well also a posi rear end w/ disc brakes. All glass is good except driver window the glass top has sun cracks. Chrome is in good condition with the exception of bumpers. Front seats are high back bucket out of a mustang, the back seats are all original in excellent shape. All other upholstery is in fair condition. Body has been modified but all donor parts will be included, a donor car in also negotiable in price. Contact for more information lots of pictures.
