Solid, Streight, Strong Running, with New Custom Leather Interior

1957 Ford Courier Sedan Delivery Standard

1957 Ford Sedan Delivery This is a rock solid, smooth running/driving vehicle. Your personal inspection is welcomed and advised. This vehicle is currently registered and insured. The Sedan Delivery, Courier, was an extremely low production model in 1957. (approximately 5,300 were produced in '57), (That is just over 100 units per state), and were sold as commercial vehicles, worked hard and usually not maintained well. As a result, not many of thoseproduced, survived.
This Courier wagon was originally sold to, and owned, for many years, by theCalifornia State Park Service. Built in the assembly plant in SanJose, CA, the car still has the State Park green in the wheel wells andon the innerdoor skins.It runs and drives smooth. solid and nice.The body is completely stock, and very straight, with no rust appearing anywhere. Ithas a Mustang transplanted drive train, with a 351 Windsor and Mustang, floor mounted3 speed automatic.I rebuilt the carburetorseveral years ago and itsits on an Offenhouser manifold.I had the rear end rebuilt acouple years ago, with new gears and pinion seal.The carhas no rattles or squeaks. Rides on new shocks, front and real, with the rears being adjustable air shocks. The engine sounds healthy outside and is very smooth and quiet inside. It has a surprisingamount of power. It has great compression and has no smoke or unusual noises. It is driven only on dry, Summer weekends, never in the snow or rain. and always garaged. It has new brake pads, springs and wheel cylinders,leather seats, matching front and rear, custom black leather interior. Newheadliner, side panels.Theunique engine turn aluminum panels for the dash distinctively sets the dash apart and hasa looksimilar to the '57 Thunderbird Bird dash. It has a professionally installed adjustable steering column. Turn signals, dash lights, gauges, brakes and head lights, all work as they should. The turn signalsalso work as they should and cancel correct andautomatically,
Mechanically, this vehicle needs nothing. The one thing it needs and deserves in a good paint job. The car has numerous chips and scratches in the paint, having been in a tight space garage, none of which are dents.

Below are just some of the improvements that have beenmade to the car in the last 6 or 7 years I have owned itand the few things that still need to be addressed; MECHANICAL - Completely rebuilt rear end, a couple years ago.

New accelerator pump. - New rear individually adjustable air shocks. - New front shocks. - New brakes including spring kit and wheel cylinders. - New exhaust system with new mufflers.

I believe the core to be good.
