LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1967 Ford Country Sedan Wagon
There likely isn’t a baby boomer alive that hasn’t ride in a station wagon at one time or another. These land yachts could carry up to 8 passengers, with plenty of room for all their luggage up on the roof rack. The standard engine for the 1967 Ford Country Sedan Wagon was the straight-six, but buyers now had quite a few more powerful options to choose from. One was the 289-cu.in. small-block V-8, which developed 200hp with a two-barrel carburetor. The other optional V-8s were a 250hp 352-cu.in. four-barrel and a 390-cu.in. big-block, available in either 265hp two-barrel trim or as a four-barrel version that made a meaty 315hp. The top gun was a 428-cu.in. 345 hp V-8; very few wagons were so equipped. Only 206 came factory equipped with the 428ci engine and C6 Automatic making this one of the most desirable station wagons ever produced.
This ultra-rare wagon was sold new at High Performance Ford dealer Mel Burns in Long Beach, California on 11/08/66. His dealership sold and delivered many original Shelby Cobras and Shelby Mustangs. This car was factory ordered in the attractive Brittany Blue paint scheme with a matching 6B Blue Vinyl interior. This wagon came highly optioned from the factory, the most important of all being the Q-Code big block 428ci Engine backed by a C-6 Automatic Transmission. Other options include Factory Air Conditioning, Deluxe Trim, Closed Crankcase Emission System, Exhaust Emission Control, Power Rear Window, Power Side Windows, Power Drum Brakes, Power Steering, AM Radio, Rear Seat Speaker, Tinted Glass, Deluxe Seat Belts, Manual Right Hand Mirror and Remote Control Left Hand Mirror. No one can deny the cool factor of a station wagon outfitted with a 428ci engine that spent the better part of its life on the west coast.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
