              For those of us who aren't '55 experts, in what body styles was a President available?

                Years ago, I owned two 1955s, a C and a K (Speedster) and do not consider myself to be an "expert" on them.
                By body styles, I would say four door sedan, coupe and hardtop. Then in the sedans you could say that the early ones were a different body than the Ultra Vistas. Of course, there are also trim differences, like Deluxe and State sedans and State and Speedster hardtops.

                  We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

                    Awsome! My first car was a 1955 Commander. My dad had bought it before I was old enough to drive and did a fantastic job of resto-moding it. When it finally came to me it was a little screamer that was loads of fun.
                    Have fun with yours. Will look for pictures.

                      Good to hear about another '55 owner. I was driving mine today, it is certainly a nice riding car even though as has been pointed out to me "many" times it is the less desirable 4 door sedan.
