1957 Ford Courier


 ford-1957-12997.JPG
This Ford Station Wagon served as an official coroner’s car in Colorado. Known in the trade as a “courier”, the car’s windowless cargo area, Black paint and special signage were clear signals as to its purpose. The bland Tan and Brown interior is all business, with vinyl upholstery, air conditioning, radio, heater, defroster and spotlight all necessities to the job at hand. Restored in the 1980s, the car is equipped with Ford’s baseline 312/190 HP V-8 and optional 3-speed automatic.
