Update: This is no longer for sale. It has been sold.
This is a Christmas Holiday special. We purchased this in 2021 in Montana and it still stored on the Montana farm we purchased it from. My Uncle, his son(my cousin) and I restore old vehicles and this is one of those vehicles. It is currently listed on eBay for $3000. Unfortunately, someone hit the buy it now button so I think it’s final. The buyer emailed me right after buying it and said it would be a couple of weeks before he could get the money to us. Ordinarily, I don’t do business this way but this person has purchased from us before so I’m giving him a few days before I relist it.
I found this old vehicle while out riding around back in 2021 when I went to South Dakota and ended up in Montana traveling the scenic Beartooth Highway. I talk about this in another post. Montana, Wyoming and South Dakota was great and finding this was a real treat. I’ve loved old, classic cars since I was a kid. My Dad got me into the love for classic, old American made automobiles. He routinely took me to the junk yard. He worked in Detroit at the Ford Motor Company and when I first went to Michigan it was one of the most exciting times of my life because in many ways I felt like I was retracing my Dad’s footsteps although of course I wasn’t. I traveled route 66, went to Sandusky, Ohio because Dad worked there too, California and Nevada, my Dad worked there as well. Every place I visited that I knew my Dad had been was exciting. I’ve included all of the pertinent information about this old 1954 Ford Ranch Wagon here. This is mostly for informational purposes only. I regularly list classic vehicles for sale on eBay. My next one will be in about a month. I also sell jewelry and other items on eBay and Etsy. I show my jewelry listings on my blog on blogger and occasionally livejournal.
Location: Great Falls, Montana • V.I.N U4PR155160, Engine 239cid V-8 OHV 130hp (Y•Block), Do not have engine number Transmission “Fordomatic” 2-speed automatic, Mileage: 84615 miles, Firewall Stamp: F12782 (passenger side), Body: 59B, Color: RM (Torch Red/Sandstone White), Trim: AU, Production Code: 864043, Interior Color: Red/White, Stored on Montana Farm (bought from original owner), SOLD WITH Notarized Montana Title, I have no issues shipping overseas.
Purchased the Ford Ranch Wagon in 2021 from the original owner who had parked the car circa 1970. There were ‘Great Falls Select’ beer cans to carbon date to at least 1975 which is last year of pull tabs. Spent a day digging out the car and loading it on trailer. Installed used tires to move and the driveline is not installed.
I try to make my listings as informational as possible so that there should be no question of what the winning bidder is receiving. The listing has/had 90+ photos and five videos.
I have been selling on Ebay since the wild west days of 1999. I have 100% feedback. Contact me with any questions that I have not answered in this listing or any incorrect information. I have sold 11 vehicles on Bring-A-Trailer (currently they only sell trailer queens!) so bid with confidence.
Engine Does Not Turn Over, Original ‘Y-BLOCK’ 239cid V-8 • Overhead Valve (First Year), Fordomatic 2-speed automatic transmission, Missing Radiator, Driveline Disconnected & Cut, Original Paint: Torch Red/Sandstone White, Passenger Door has rust on bottom, Rest of body in good original PATINA condition, Hood Springs do not function, All original Glovebox decals intact, Floorboards rusted which is normal for a car this old, Rear window floor area has some rust, Ignition/Door Keys Included, Used Tires Installed, No cost short term storage available after final payment, Will store until shipping arrangements are finalized.
If the buy it now buyer doesn’t come through by some chance I will relist it and repost here. In a couple of months I will be listing another vehicle like this one that we found in Pennsylvania in 2020. It’s almost exactly like this one with the same body style.
If you have any questions about my eBay listings please email me or leave a comment on this post.
Another thing I like are classic car museums and while traveling I visit quite a few of them. Sometimes I go to classic car places looking for a vehicle to purchase and other times I just like to photograph them. It’s a real help to have something to tell you where all of the interesting car museums and places to purchase them are.

Until next time……..My story……..UPDATE: I’m moving to a marina on Lake Keowee, only in a smaller boat, a 1981 Yukon Delta 28 that needs a ton of work…………….I’m Rachel Xie Qi Holbert-Jones Page and this is my story: living in Iva, South Carolina (Anderson County), part time in Hartwell, Georgia on my boyfriend’s boat, a 1986 Chris-Craft Catalina 381. I was at the Hartwell Marina which doesn’t allow liveaboards so I left. He purchased a 1996 Holiday Mansion 39 Barracuda, 1977 CHB Trawler 34 (I’m remodeling), 1986 Marine Trader 54 Sunliner that I’m updating, 2018 Sunseeker Manhattan 52, 2001 Nordic Tug 37 and a 1983 Fishcraft 28 (similar to the AdventureCraft 28 I lived on and still call home). I’m also camping at various places, mostly lake campgrounds. ****************I still care for my aunt in West Virginia sometimes and hoping not to have to return to Memphis, Tennessee. We are scheduled to move my aunt to Dead Women Crossing, Oklahoma but first it’s to Georgia for the winter & Michigan in the summer. I’m still traveling for work and have been to my Uncle’s ranch in Alpine, Texas to oversee it and the cattle he retitled in both of our names, Texas Longhorns, Scottish Highlands, Brangus and show horses. He’s also added Bison and Beefalo to his ranch. **************************************************************** For my work travels my uncle purchased a 1995 Ford E-150 Econoline GT Starquest Campervan. I wasn’t sure about an older van like this but the man that owned it had completely converted it with solar power and electrical, it was a good deal. It only has 112k miles. It only has a sealed portable toilet but it is okay because I prefer a public toilet and only use a camper toilet if I’m dispersed camping, at a Walmart or Cracker Barrel. I prefer rest areas and truck stops. For short trips, I drive a car or SUV. ***************************************************************** I have an avid love for photography and capturing the essence of old, abandoned houses, allegedly haunted places, classic, antique vehicles, lakes, rivers, nature, museums, art galleries, antique shops, car shows and historical places. I’m not a ghosthunter or paranormal investigator although I’ve had people request me to lead their groups, I’m a legend hunter. I love scary podcasts and spend more time on YouTube or Audible than Peacock or Tubi. I used to watch TV or movies when I stopped for the night but now I usually go right to sleep when I stop and prefer the podcasts of Darkness Prevails, What Lurks Beneath, Swamp Dweller or Red Owl. I like to listen to scary trucker stories too, occasionally grizzly/polar bear attacks, audiobooks & Dateline Podcasts. I like google scholar, casetext, medium, wordpress, livejournal, blogger, unsplash, pexels, pixabay, pinterest, instagram, facebook, X, tumblr, amazon, eBay, shadowlands (for places that are haunted), reading, greek mythology, animal shows, National Geographic, the metaphysical, food, camping, fitness, weightlifting, nutrition, health, gua sha, face rollers, beauty, fashion, tai chi, yoga, YouTube (listening to van lifers and people living in their vehicles), road tripping, computers, internet and creating videos. I also like long drives & deserted back roads. Work consists of scouting for investment properties and rehabbing/remodeling those properties for my employer. We also remodel old boats and restore classic cars. *****************************************************************Visit my blogs at https://rachelholbertjonespage.com, https://sassygrrl32x.blogspot.com and https://youtube.com/sassygrrl32 ……………………..By Rachel Xie Qi Holbert-Jones Page AKA sassygrrl32 & Haunted Legendhunter & Bourbon Street Blogger **********************************************************Alot of people have asked me the story of my homeless situation and I’ve removed it for now and will discuss it in my blog posts. *****************************************************************#rachelxieqiholbertjonespage #sassygrrl32 #Iva #Keowee #SouthCarolina #Hartwell #Georgia #andersoncounty #Michigan #livinginacar #vanlife #nomadlifestyle #carcamping #roadtripping #boondocking #carlife #livingoffgrid #vandwelling #vanliving #legendhunter #haunted #abandoned #xieqi #sassyaftersixty #deadwomencrossing #oklahoma #westvirginia #memphis #tennessee #bourbonstreetblogger #bepositive #prayer #GodBless #rebranding #westernzhoudynasty #daxie #nanyang #mandarin #xiemei #lowbow #vitallifeforce #flowingvitalenergy #unseenenergy #taichi #davisislandersllc #rizzoreipartners
