I purchased
my 1930 150B Station Wagon from a man in Plymouth, Mass. who had
owned the vehicle for fifteen (15) years. He had taken the car
from original to about 65% restored but had finally given up on
the project due to lack of time and patience (I think). I am currently
refinishing all of the wood body parts with six (6) new coats
on high gloss marine spar varnish.
The body
is a reproduction Pleasantville Manufacturing body that is faithful
to the original materials and dimensions. The previous owner had
the engine completely rebuilt by Knight Engineering in Gloucester,
Mass.
The Model
A Station Wagon first produced by Ford in 1928 was very popular
here in New England with hotels and inns across the region. Many
fine examples exist and, in fact, our club has approximately nine
wagons owned by club members. December
