It’s a ’54, and a beauty.

You are correct, a '54 I think.
I was thinking '53. Not sure.
We had a 1953. I remember the headliner came loose driving to Wildwood NJ when I was 5 or 6yo. At the beach, I remember riding on the tailgate flanked by my 2 older brothers. Thinking back about that, how terrifying. Thanks for the memories about our old Ford wagon.
Great set, Spock, a 1954 Ford wagon.
For sure a 54, nice find, and well photographed.

Definitely a ‘54 and you are correct.
My favorite Y-Block was the 57 312 CI with the Paxton super charger.
That’s a beauty. If it’s a resto they made it new again
Looks like it is parked next to a Rolls Royce. Great picture
Yup a 1954. The first year Ford had an OHV V-8. The flat heads died in 1953.
1954. The ‘55 and ‘56 had different headlights.

Had one like it, more likely 55 or 56. Mine was 56 that my Father bought new. My Uncle was the general sales manager of the Ford dealer in town.
The 55 had a wraparound windshield... I had one, Banner blue...
