When I was little, my grandparents had 2 toy cars, one grey, one drab green. Steel chassis, plastic bodies, no interior. They were promo toys from a Ford dealership! Never knew the year. Now I do; they were 1954 Fords. Not Crestlines, nor Sunliners, but '54 Fords nevertheless. What a great car. The shape has been with me my whole 45 years. I was playing with those promos before I could walk. Thanks so much for this video. Cleared up a great mystery!

@loucostabile 6 лет назад

Hi Todd Wall, That is great that this "cleared up a great mystery!" :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing, adding to the story, and you're welcome, Lou

@opera93 3 года назад

Todd Wall thanks for sharing, we had two 54 Fords, etc, see my notes,

@TheGunfighter45acp 6 лет назад

I love that black car, too! With a drop top, dual exhaust, & the red/white interior, I bet this one is gonna sell fast, & just in time for cruising season.

@loucostabile 6 лет назад

Hi TheGunfighter45acp, I wanted to video this one to share, because I believe you're right that someone is going to purchase this one soon, Lou

@AtlantaGymFan 6 лет назад

Terrific! My older cousin drove a car identical to this and to a 5 year old, it was the most beautiful car in the world!

Hi Brock White, Glad you think this one is "terrific!" :-) Thank you for sharing your Older Cousin's car looks like this one, as it sounds like a wonderful memory, Lou

Hi Scott Brady, Glad you enjoyed this "bit of history". Thank you Scott for the VERY kind words. Clearly I'm not where Jay Leno is from automotive knowledge, Team of Editors, Influence, however we both love cars and are having fun. I'm humbled by the wonderful compliment :-) Pleased you're enjoying the Channel, and glad you're along for the ride with me, Lou

@craigjorgensen4637 2 года назад

Just beautiful with rare options. A one year only engine. A 239 which was the same as the 53 flatheads. The following year Chevy had the 265’s coming so Ford had to respond with the 272’s. 1955 brought many changes to the entire industry.

@loucostabile 2 года назад

Hi Craig, Happy to read you enjoy the looks and appreciate the rarity of these options. Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou

@hishamelfiki8111 6 лет назад

Hi LOU how are you doing . Wish you all the best in your business . This is one of the nicest cars that Ford introduced to the car business . For that reason it's a great collectable rare classic Ford , also you can find it only in the car museum . I believe it will be very difficult to find another one today . This particular model was very common in CAIRO Egypt during the period of the kingdom of Egypt . Also the color is so beautiful and elegant. I really like this awesome Ford . Thanks LOU for sharing this beautiful Ford . I enjoyed watching the video. Thanks LOU and please have a great successful business day . Kind Regards HISHAM ELFIKI

Hey Lou. Awesome looking 1954 Ford convertible. I've never seen one in person. I've seen 2 door hardtops, and I've seen 2 door sedans, but I've never seen a convertible.

@loucostabile 6 лет назад

Hey Jason, Glad you enjoy this one and think the looks are "awesome" :-) This is the first 1954 Ford on the Channel so I'm glad I was able to share this one with you, Lou

@opera93 3 года назад

@muaythai193 3 года назад

0.85 bore/stroke-ratio V8 with side valves is what makes this awesome sound! Would love for modern V8s to get back to that for retro cruisers...that and a true dual exhaust without crossover or h-pipe I assume. 👍 7:40

Why did he park it an inch from the wall?

@loucostabile 6 лет назад

Because there is a garage door there, and he has SO MANY cars going in and out we didn't want to scratch this one.

@MrFishface5 6 лет назад

@thomasnorman951 2 года назад

Why is this automobile park next to a wall you can't walk on that side of the vehicle or open any other doors come on Lou tell the owner of this vehicle to get in it and drive it away from the wall so we can get a good look at it we want to see the top open and close we want you to start the motor owner start your motor we want you to drive it somewhere ..... the top down... Place the pedal to the middle and drive it about 125 miles an hour

@loucostabile 2 года назад

Hi Thomas, This video is in the Volo Auto museum with about 300+ other cars and videoed in Winter. There are many cars are stuffed into the many buildings they have at this location. The car is actually in a pretty large spot where I could walk around it a little. No top down with temperatures below freezing outside :-) Lou
