This was a stylish old girl. Any guesses at year & make.
It was my parents car back in my young days, I had the use of it when they upgraded.
It towed a heavy caravan across Australia & back, maybe twice.

Looks like an early to mid 50's Ford to me (emblem on the nose) with a V8 badge on the front fender.

Judging by he chrome on the rear quarter panel, I’m thinking it’s a ‘54.

It is a '53.
The '52, '53, and '54 shared the same boxy style with just trim, grille, and bumper differences.
The '49-'51 versions shared a rounder style, again with trim differences. Pictured is a '50 Ford.

On closer viewing of the front chrome, I realized I was wrong to say it’s a ‘54. It is a ‘53.

I’m pretty sure it’s a ’52. If I remember correctly, the ’53 had a grille that was squared off on the ends.

Not sure but maybe a '51 or '52 Ford.

My dad got one for my mother. It needed painting and we did it by hand. I did the detailing around the trim and he did the rest with a brush. When he traded it to a used car dealer the dealer just put it on the lot. It sold in less than a week.
