Full Description

1954 Ford Custom Crestline Skyliner finished in a gorgeous Blue with a White top and two-tone Blue/Cream interior.
Powered by Ford's first 239c.i. V8 that produces 130hp and is backed by a 3-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
This amazing example has been upgraded and modified to create a beautiful representation of a mainstream 1950's automobile.

Features in this Custom Crestline consist of rear fender skirts; stainless steel trim package; two-tone paint; dual sport mirrors; power windows;
factory trunk mat; jack; and spare tire.
Upgrades consist of a re-plated
1954 Desoto grille that was floated in the front cowl;
stamped louvered hood;
Laker side pipes; dual exhaust with chrome plated billet mufflers; continental stainless tire kit; shaved trunk lock with power trunk; custom wire wheels; white wall radial tires; and a 1.5" drop. It also comes with the original split grille and bumper guards; trim; factory Coronado trunk spare tire cover;
front factory hood emblem with airplane hood topper; and a custom car cover.

This 1954 Ford was sold new in California and made its way to Spokane, WA in the 1960's. After 20 years it ended up with a collector in Victoria. BC and spent several years being restored to the beautiful example seen today. The two-tone paint is water based and the pinstriping on the car is all hand painted. A new roof panel was also installed in 2010. It's a well-done classic that is ready to go.
