Intro post

Another great forum to help you with upgrades is the 1952-59 Ford Social Group on the H.A.M.B. it has a HUGE information only file available it has been around since May of 2009.

Thank you, I've found some info on HAMB - I'm going to sign up there.

Your car is nearly identical to the Australian 1955 Ford Customline that was illustrated on the original Post Card that was issued by Ford Australia. This was the only model 1955 Ford that was offered in Australia beside the Mainline Ute. They all came with the new 272 OHV Y Block and standard Three Speed Manual Transmission. The only choice that a new car buyer got was what colour he wanted. We were not spoiled like buyers in the USA where buyers got many body styles in three series to choose from.
 
All Fords ( except trucks) starting in 1949 up to the 80's had a 4.5 inch bolt pattern and some still have the same bolt pattern. Merc's were different up to a point, don't know where that is Lincoln used the 4.5 too, at least for certain years and models.

I have a space saver spare off a Lincoln and it is 4.5.
