Equipment
Narrow whitewalls, body color steel wheels with hub caps, dual mirrors, bench seats.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Fair paint with a few small blisters on the driver?s side fender and near the rear bumper. The engine compartment is slightly grimy. Most of the brightwork has been redone. The seats have been redone, but the remaining interior is original and aged. A largely original car showing 51,020 miles (which may or may not be actual) that's gotten some cosmetic attention and is in presentable driver quality shape.
Market commentary
1955 Chevy 210 wagons could be had in two-door Handyman trim or as the more upscale four-door Townsman. This one was bought new and owned by a Kansas farmer until 1997, but seems to have been used for runs into town rather than hauling hay bales or dirty equipment. Even given its preservation, it's still a driver quality example of a model that's not particularly valuable and the seller frankly should have been thrilled at the reported high bid.
