Hi, Gerry, I looked thru your site several times in the past. I used to be a semi regular on Linden from Manitobas 59ford.com site until he pulled the plug a while back. Any chance you may expand your Meteor site to include some later versions? My 59 Niagara 300 feels like an orphan!! A buddy of mine still has the ame 57 Rideua 500 2 dr. "immitation hardtop" that he drove to high school back in 1967. He has owned & parted out many Meteors over the years, mainly 57 &58`s, he also owned a 57 Meteor Ranchero for many years. According to my Perry Zarvitz Meteor-Monarch book, they only made about 300 of those Ranchero`s. Another guy I know has a 56 Meteor Crown Victoria, another rare one.

A guy just joined my car club and owns a 57 Meteor Ranchero, not the one Rory mentioned either.
