1955 FORD CROWN VICTORIA METEOR RIDEAU ONE OF 151 MADE RESTORED ORIGINAL 56-57

Description

I HAVE HERE OUR 1955 FORD CROWN VICTORIA METEOR RIDEAU THAT I HAVE SPENT OVER 2 1/2 YEARS OF MY LIFE RESTORING IT. IT IS A VERY RARE MODEL MADE IN CANADA WITH ONLY 151 MADE THAT YEAR OF THE CROWN VICTORIA. SO FAR WE HAVE ONLY FOUND SIX THAT ARE STILL AROUND. THREE IN CANADA AND THREE IN THE USA. THE CONTINENTAL KIT IS THE ONE THAT SWINGS TO THE LEFT. IT IS LICENSED & INSURED AND WE HAVE DRIVEN IT AROUND 500 MILES. IT RUNS, HANDLES, SHIFTS, STEERS AND SHOWS GREAT. WE TOOK IT TO THREE SHOWS LAST SUMMER AND IT RECEIVED THREE TROPHYS AND TWO AWARDS. I WORKED WITH OUR CVA JUDGE, BECAUSE WE HAD NEVER SEEN ONE, AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT COLOR TO DO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I TOOK IT TO THE NATIONAL CVA SHOW, AND I WASN'T EVEN DONE WITH IT, AND IT GOT A SECOND PLACE. THAT WAS THE FIRST CANADIAN 55 CROWN THAT HAD EVER BEEN TO THE NATIONAL SHOW. I HAVE DONE A LOT TO IT AND IF YOU ARE "REALLY" INTERESTED IN MY CAR & A DETAILED LIST OF WHAT HAS BEEN DONE TO IT, PLEASE CALL AND WE CAN TALK. I AM AN OLD GUY AND DON'T TEXT SO PLEASE CALL. 870-431-5107. IF WE DON'T ANSWER PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE AND I WILL CALL YOU BACK. PLEASE DON'T CALL JUST TO TALK! THIS IS A VERY NICE CAR, BUT I DON'T OWN A "PERFECT" CAR. WE LIKE ONE THAT WE CAN DRIVE ANYWHERE, BUT STILL WANT A NICE CAR THAT WE CAN TAKE TO A SHOW AND MOST OF THE TIME RECEIVE A TROPHY. I WOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR TO CALIFORNIA, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE TO IT, I WOULD MAKE IT EASILY. THIS ISN'T MY FIRST RODEO! I HAVE HAD A 55-56 FORD SINCE I WAS 16 AND HAVE DONE SEVERAL OF THEM. I KNOW THEM PRETTY DARN GOOD. I CAN STORE THE CAR FOR AWHILE UNTIL THIS CRAZY WEATHER CLEARS UP UNTILL PICKUP OR SOMETHING OTHER IS ARRANGED. IT IS IN MY GARAGE COVERED UP NOW AND CAN STAY THERE FOR A WHILE. IF THE CAR SELLS I WILL WANT A $500.00 DEPOSIT WITHIN 24HRS OR PAYMENT BY BANK TO BANK TRANSFER. I DID SELL MY VICTORIA TO SOMEONE, NOW FRIENDS, IN AUSTRALIA. SO AN INTERNATIONAL SALE WILL ALSO WORK. I AM ASKING $35,000.00 FOR IT OR "BEST OFFER". YOU COULDN'T FIND ONE OR EVEN BEGIN TO RESTORE ONE FOR WHAT I AM ASKING FOR THIS ONE. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK.
