1956 Ford Crown Victoria Skyliner. This old car sported the flashy chrome “basket handle” which stretched the B-pillar across the roof with a smoked acrylic glass window over the front seat area.

What a cracker of a car,vauxhall cresta had it almost as good for uk car!!
I have the mate to it. 1955
I also had a 55 pink & white
I had a 55 CrownVictoria in 1964. Bought it for $150.00 . Black inside and out, not a scratch on it. Wish I hadn’t been so stupid.
lol—i payed 200 bucks for a red 59 ply. convert blew the engine sold it to the junk man for 10 bucks—-
Love this car. One of my all time favorites.
Had one that same color
We purchased the same vehicle at Mecum Kissimee in Jan 20190, equipped with Fordomatic Trans.,P.S. ,P.B, Power Seat and Windows,Optional radio and Factory Air. We still have it. Only 27 of the 603 Skyliners had factory air.
So you paid extra to get the pillar back vs. a regular hardtop. 1950s logic.
Hi Harold,
I also had a pink and white 55 ford crown Victoria.with the glass top.
Prettiest car I ever owned.It brings back pleasant memories every time I think about the car.
I always liked the ’55-’56 Ford Crown Vic’s since a neighbor brought a ’56 pink/black one home in ’56 when I was 14 yrs old -later in life I bought a decent ’55 turquoise and white one- kept it 20 years until I became disabled and sold it a couple of years back- loved to hear the rumble of the twin glass packs I put on it- miss that car but life gives us unwanted speed bumps to navigate
