 Looks to be a 4 door 210. I have fond memories of a red & white one - it was the ultimate Drive-in party wagon...

Station wagons weren't kool, but they sure were fun.

Ha! Major flashbacks to The Red Green Show! Remember "If women don't find you handsome they should at least find you handy".

There are actually a few "barn finds" out there, but the cost to restore, not even update, one requires cubic money...Same goes for 55-57 4 door sedans. Plenty out there, seen a few videos about converting them into 2 door versions.

 Agreed. The best way to buy them is done or nearly done, let the seller take the hit for all the parts and labor to make it presentable.

But be prepared to undo some of it if done in a less than adequate fashion....

And then he lets it sit out in ice storms.

An electrical contractor I worked for had a couple of old Ford Econoline vans that were used for jobsite storage trailers. Not too bad for a low budget operation.
