1957 Ford Ranch Wagon Description

***1957 FORD RANCHWAGON – COVER CAR FOR ROD AND KULTURE MAGAZINE! ***
*** EVERY NUT AND BOLT CUSTOM SHOW CAR PAINTED BY GENE WINFIELD!! ***
*** BUILT BY ELI LESTER - FAMED BLUES GUITARIST - THIS WAGON WON SHOWS EVEN BEFORE IT WAS EVEN FINISHED ***
Have you been waiting for the right custom show car to come along that sets you apart from all the others, something unique? Your wait is over. This is one COOL… Shaved, Frenched, Smoothed and Channeled airbag custom Wagon. Painted by the “King of Kustoms” Gene Winfield!! This is a chance to own a piece of car culture history. This is a true SHOW Car that needs to be out on the show Circuit!
It has a rebuilt 302 V8 Motor and I mean everything is new or rebuilt! New/rebuilt C4 trans. and Custom dual exhaustwith Coffin Mufflers,custom built 4 linked rear end, front end completely rebuilt, air bagged, custom control arms and brackets by suspension guru Gilbert Alemida. Yes this wagon will lay frame with the E-Level air ride system! New front windshield with new rubber. Every piece of chrome and stainless re-chromed or polished right down to the dash pieces, custom pin-striping throughout this whole car by Ed (word) Chavez, Front and Rear Bumpers were smoothed and narrowed for a tighter fit, interior is an awesome one of a kind design. Made with stitched cream and Copper Leather with the genuine metal NOS steel piping in the seats. The dash was just updated with a Dakota Digital system, so now it has all the modern electronics to monitor the fuel, tach, volts, oil pressure, engine temp and speed which is set by the GPS-50-2 unit. Check out the Guitar amp in the back by the tailgate, too KOOL.

Every nut and bolt has replaced on this ride and is so cool to show-off! Car is a 1 of a kind! Paint is what Eli says in the article in Rod and Kulture as “A modern day version of Famed custom painter Gene Winfield's famous JADE IDOL” Car Paint scheme. So who better to paint it than the man himself Gene Winfield. There are nine unique colors on this wagon but the primary is Cinnamon, it has gradients of copper and gold... There is no way you will find another wagon this cool! This unique! Check out the Firestone Wide Whitewall Tires with "Era" Caps, they really give it that Old School look. Dash looks so awesome, just look at the pictures WOW! Just check out these pictures of this car and tell me if you dove this you wouldn't have the coolest car at ANY car show. If you are a car-guy you know how much something like this costs to do and the time and resources it takes to do it to this level. The fit and finish is of this wagon is of the highest quality. I urge anyone interested in this car to come take a look, it’s nicer in person than what the pictures show.

Please pay close attention to the pictures, I have more pictures of the documented build available.
