You've probably met a few of Jim Wagnon's very cool Ford Motor Company cars from the 1960s that we've already featured. If not, check them out in the links below. This is one of the rarest in his collection and is becoming his "go to" daily ride around Phoenix! It still wears its original patina but has had a heart transplant with a few upgrades. Check it out and let us know what you think?

The space between the body and the roof looks larger than the American 1960 wagons. What a piece of history you have there.

... Love the 1960 body style ... Tan is a great color ... ... I'm in California, and of all things, I own two Canadian built cars ! ... A 1965 Studebaker Cruiser, and a 1953 Dodge Regent ... Both are four door cars ... Both have front & rear operating wing vents ... And both are well loved, appreciated and admired ... Oh, and both are daily drivers ... Best regards ...

Hi I'm the guy whose friend owned this car in Vancouver at least untill the early 1990s when I last saw it I last rode in it when we went to the 1986 Vancouver World's Fair. Glad to see it survived I owned a 1955 Meteor Niagara from 1984 until last year.

Amazing that there was anything left of it after northern Ont. winters. I'm Canadian so I know how many cars from Canada from that era have long since turned into a pile of rust. Incredibly rare car and so nice to know that a least one of these survived. You always have the most interesting cars on this channel. Thanks.

My first car, when I was 15 in '74, was a 60 Starliner. Of course I wish I still had it. This Meteor is probably rarer than a '60 Edsel, and a 2 door wagon too! The engine and transmission are really nice additions. You've done a great job.

@IfThisCarCouldTalk 2 месяца назад

Very cool comment and thanks for watching! Actually the '60 Edsel is rarer and wish we had one of each!

@jimf4492 2 месяца назад

@@IfThisCarCouldTalk Do you know if any Edsels were sold new in Canada? You are right about the 1960 Edsels in terms of numbers built - by a lot, but I wonder if more of the '60 Edsels were saved than the '60 Meteors? Cars of this era rusted bady. I've see 4 or 5 1960 Edsels in person, but only one '60 Meteor. I'm not Canadian. Maybe the 1960 Meteors were popular and were preserved.

@jetsons101 2 месяца назад

Fun Fact: The 60 full-sized Ford cars, same sheet metal as a Meteor, was one year body because it was too wide. The car, at 81½ inches, were actually wider than normal limits, and technically should have been sold with orange “clearance” lights on the roof. LOL

@lancasterritzyescargotdine2602 2 месяца назад

Bull!

@Kevin.W. 2 месяца назад

Not sure about the clearance lights lol, but yes, 1960 was the widest Ford ever built

@ml.2770 2 месяца назад

I saw this car in Vancouver when I moved there in the early 90s. I remember remarking to my friend "Look at that massive station wagon!". Whatever made it move from North Bay to Vancouver is the only reason it survived.

It appears the 1960 model of the Meteor was a fairly subdued modification of the 1960 Ford . My recollection is that in some other years the Meteor styling was a bit more flamboyant. Thanks for sharing this.

My dream truck would be a Mercury Truck (crew cab) if possible......... Great to see a vintage Canadian car.

@IfThisCarCouldTalk 2 месяца назад

We love the Mercury truck too!!

@lancasterritzyescargotdine2602 2 месяца назад

Mercury trucks were produced from 1946 thru 1968. Sadly, none were offered in crew cab formation. There had been a huge collection of Mercury trucks in the southwest California desert collected by a snowbird who drove one down from Canada each year. Unfortunately, back in the late 1990s some cigarette jerk came along and accidentally set fire to his place and all were destroyed. I cried for days...

Great car, I've only seen one US '60 Ford 2 door wagon, and several Falcons. I am in Mesa, have a '60 Comet 2 door wagon, also an original six/3 speed, also a V8 conversion with a 302 and C4. Its not Canadian, but it's rare enough that a few have asked me if it is.

@IfThisCarCouldTalk 2 месяца назад

Sounds like a very cool car you have there too! Thanks for watching and maybe we'll see you out and about with your Comet!

@robwhitehead9602 2 месяца назад

Very cool. Where do you get the autolite battery ?

@IfThisCarCouldTalk 2 месяца назад

Hi and thanks for watching. That battery is a reproduction available from most Ford or Mustang parts vendors. There is also a top plate that fits over a more modern battery to make it look like and original one. Keep watching!

So do you think you will ever sell it?

I'm in Enilda Alberta Canada's north country. Please don't ignore this message? I'm no dumbass either!

Jim’s my dad, probably not for a while as he just finished it and got it from his friend who has passed.

@lancasterritzyescargotdine2602 2 месяца назад

If you're not a dumbass, you'll buy the car and repair the hotrod damage done to it by previous irresponsible owners! Good luck, bro. Seeing this car back in good shape would make my day. And Beechwood Brown is the perfect color for a Ranch Wagon.
