Advertised as, “the standard for the American road.” Ford continued to use the previous year’s bodies, but received moderate trim updating. New convenience features were added, such as power windows, brakes and seats. A new high compression V-8 was added along with an updated front suspension which now had ball joints instead of kingpins. A first for Ford was the exclusive Skyliner, which features an entire front section of the roof with a tinted, transparent panel, giving the car an open car feeling. Only 13,344 Skyliners were built in 1954.

Powering this restored Ford is the iconic 239-cid flathead V-8, it is adorned with chrome, dual exhaust and is very nicely detailed. Backing the engine is a column shift three-speed manual transmission. The body is finished in red with a white top, and has chrome bumpers, Continental kit, color-keyed steel wheels with factory covers and whitewall tires. For your driving comfort the contoured seats are finished in a red and white two-tone, with added white-face gauges mounted under the dash, plus seatbelts.
