The 54 has frenched tail lights as this one does and were originally chrome. the 53 had no actual surround around the tail lights, they just jutted out of the body. We had a 54 station wagon my Dad bought new and we kept it for almost twenty years before it crapped out.

There is a hidden ignition switch on the 1951. Right by the oil pressure gauge!
@gosportjamie4 жыл бұрын
I thought I saw that too. It's far from unusual for older cars to have hidden switches fitted to isolate the ignition or fuel pump on injected cars as the standard security equipment was pretty much non-existent so they were hugely easy to steal. Being as both vehicles clearly came from the same person then it's more than likely that they both have the same sort of security modification...

A 3-on-the-tree!!!! Buy it Randy and don't even think about replacing that inline-6!!!! BTW, here is the shift pattern: Up R 2 The I I The Seat ---N--- Dash I I 1 3 Down R- back toward you and up (From Neutral) 1st- back toward you and down (From Neutral) 2nd- up- forward toward dash and up (From 1st) 3rd- straight down (From 2nd) Neutral is usually spring-loaded so it'll automatically push the shifter towards the 2nd/3rd position when you push it into Neutral from Reverse or 1st. There is nothing like driving a vehicle with a 3-on-the tree- long, lazy gearing that pulls for days. Buy it, Randy, you'll really love it. I've been wanting to buy a 60s or 70s F100 with a 3-on-the-tree myself. It is a really special experience driving one.

Do note that if you go back far enough in the vintage of the “Chevy 265 straight 6-cylinder” engine you are going to run into poured crankshaft bearings. The transition was somewhere in the early 50’s. Rebuilding a 265 with poured bearings is not worth the effort as the skill to do that is long since been lost: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_straight-6_engine

The problem with that is that this era of Mazda is already rust-prone, and having been swimming, this one is going to rust even quicker than normal. People who buy cheap cars tend to be an awkward lot so if someone buys that and it rusts out in a couple of years, they're going to moan like hell about it and tell everyone they know not to buy a car from Weird Beard or Randy. That kind of thing gets around, inevitably gets inflated in the retelling and can destroy a business very quickly...
