Big news for Ford in 1954 was an all-new 130-hp OHV “Y-block” V-8 replacing the old Flathead in use since the 1930s. It offered the most horsepower in its price class and was a smash hit with buyers. At the top of the price tier was this Crestline Sunliner Convertible at $2,245.

Finished in its factory-correct and rare color combination of Goldenrod Yellow with a black Haartz top over matching yellow and black interior, this 2013 AACA winner makes for quite a striking presentation. Benefitting from a fresh restoration completed in 2012, over $75,000 in receipts document work completed on this stunning automobile. Fitted with dual exhausts, power top, Kelsey-Hayes wire wheel on wide whitewall tires, you’ll no doubt agree it is one beautiful car.
