The demise of Ford's largely hand built wood-bodied station wagons was imminent in the years after World War II, but there was still a short reprieve while artisans methods and individual craftsmanship persisted to meet the nearly insatiable demand for new cars after the war. Based on Ford's late generation of pre-war cars, these beautiful wagons were built for only three years, 1946-48. This example, one of just 16,104 built in 1947, in blue with brown leather upholstery has been fully restored. It has three-row seating, whitewall tires, hubcaps, trim rings and an exposed spare mounted on the tailgate. The paint, chrome, wood and interior all are very good. Equipped with a 239 cubic inch, 100 horsepower, flathead V-8; it is a very pretty car in great running and driving condition ready to drive and enjoy.
