1955 FORD CROWN VICTORIA - THE "BASKET HANDLE" ROOF BAND MODEL

[65emkay]

Hi, it's been a while since last time we communicated, first of all I'd like (delayed, sorry!)to wish you a pleasant '12 with further "discoveries" health & peace; concerning your video I found that it was Ford in particular which presented, in my modest opinion, among the most attractive vehicles: '54 Monterrey cpe,'56 Premiere, '56 Continental cpe, '55 Tbird, '55 F100... In all segments there were "sexy" news,of course the Imperial, 300 or Nomads, Corvettes were nice but Ford was top,your op?

@65emkay My best wishes to you and yours for 2012 also. Ford did an outstanding job of redesign with all divisions this year. As well as the other car makers but I really like the Ford products, - hence my channel name of 55lincoln. The 56 Continental and Lincoln capri are more pleasing and popular than the 55 Lincoln but I like all the Ford models. Simply great design and engineering. Of course, I like all cars including the ones you named. Thanks so much for your contribution.

@hristo369 All the mid-fifties cars are wonderful for sure. 1955 was the year! Thanks for enjoying this Crown Vic and commenting.

1955 was a big year for the big three. After 1949 I think 1955 was the next year for some really great styling changes. Someone sure went through a lot effort to bring this beauty up to show room class.

@cheddyrod :Yes, wasn't 1955 a banner year for the big three? GM - start of tri five, V8 Chevys, Chrysler - the forward look starts with wayout radical designs & fins, FoMoCo with all divisions facelifts, unique styling, safety features. And this here Crown Vic! Superb professional restoration. Why this Ford looks brand spanking new. A real winner I'd like to have. Thanks for enjoying.
