Steve, I haven`t seen the magazine yet, but I`m a bit confused. I always thought that the "SKYLINER" designation was used on the 57-59 Ford retractable HT`s, with the "SUNLINER" name used on the soft top converts. Or is this a 56 hardtop with the green plexiglass roof panel? I know Mercury called them "SUN VALLEY`s", did Ford call those cars Skyliners?

Yes, it's the one with the green plexiglass roof panel.

This month's PHR has a story on the building of the Skyliner.

My wife last night told me she couldn't understand my facination with it. She thinks it's butt-ugly!

Women!

Steve

Sorry to hear about your impending divorce

And to think that just a week ago you were commenting on Pam being wonderful.
