Coolford has been around for awhile, but not active because I could not post pictures.  Well finally figured it out and have posted some lately and will be doing so in the future.  Not a Ford, but close, its a 1956 Mercury Montclair two door hardtop.

Yes, it does!!  I had one that I bought new in fall of 55. Rockers were gone by 59 sold it.  Bought this one 5 years ago, it was already nosed and decked, twin spotlights and side pipes with rolled and pleated interior.  Mechanically it is original.

Ford and Merc built some of the best looking cars in the mid fifties.  At church a couple weeks ago I parked my bike next to this Mercury...
