This one was posted before.  I guess they came to the conclusion that it'

s not correct,  but for the money I think it would still be a neat car to beat around in.  Only a hard core hobbiest versed in 55's is going to know it's not correct.

Yes, it's a "lowly" Ranch Wagon kind of made to resemble an upscale Parklane, but the Ranch Wagon logo (and other things)  keeps it from being a counterfeit. They didn't make Parklane til '56, but I agree that this would be a car worth having.

I love that radio!

I read recently that EVs may kill off AM radio (which has been near death for a long time) because they emit radio frequency (RF) energy in the AM band.

Nice, and good asking price.

Getting the steering wheel recast in a body color (like a Fairlane) would help with the upscale illusion.

I have a recast steering wheel that cost me $800. So I can understand not doing that, but if you go that route, I would also fix the tail gate and add a couple grand to the ask. Small repairs not done on big dollar cars drives me crazy (only needs a tune up).

The heck with the steering wheel! Fix the tailgate and drive it....
