1956 Ford C500 COE: A Beautiful Kind of Ugly


From Alex Emond: Tucked away in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. The fence makes it hard to get good all round shots . Pretty good shape , considering its age . So few of these beasts left. Nice high vantage point for the drive. A beautiful kind of ugly. I'd like to stick a little vintage trailer on the chassis and head off into the sunset. 

AL: We want to ride it through Harvard Square and down Brattle St., herding Teslae. We've posted another Ford COE, same era, in the Nevada desert. And a Chevy C500 that got radicalized by the Pacheco Bros., out there in Trementina, NM. Dry is good for these trucks.
