    Hello everyone. Glad to be a new member! I have a '56 Ford Country Sedan that I am slowly restoring to a daily driver. Three speed with O.D. I've recently rebuilt the 292 y-block, added a dual master power assist master with disc on the front, power steering, power windows (controlled with the original window cranks), Vintage Air a/c and auxiliary fan, updated the radio, fixed the clock and generally got it reasonably reliable. I have ordered original replacement upholstery (embossed cowboy vinyl) ordered from SMS along with new door panels. I'm currently installing a new wire harness from Painless. It will be nice to have everything run through a fuse box.

    Welcome to the Wagon Nerd Dormitory, Tom! VERY nice stable you have there. That '56 Country Sedan is really a time machine!
