Highly resonant with the buying public in 1949, Ford’s restyling was the first herald of America’s major postwar automotive redesigns. Vehicles like this two-door wood-sided wagon also benefited from the new “lifeguard body” steel undergirding, and this wonderful car has been restored. Power comes from a classic 239 CI flathead V-8 engine, with its downdraft carburetor and oil-bath air cleaner. A driveshaft replaced the aging torque-tube design, and this woody features the 3-speed manual transmission with a column-mounted shifter. In keeping with growing families, this wagon came with the third-row seat, with niceties like electric wipers, in-dash clock and radio. There is a rear-mounted spare tire, bumper guards, the new-for-’49 styling and the bullet-nose grille, with the paint work in a complementary cream tone. Riding on painted steel wheels with wide whitewall tires, chrome hubcaps and trim rings, this was a prized possession for its first owner, and it certainly should be one for you as well.
