Publication differences and research limits
Dimensions: the August 1959 catalog and opening AMA sheet list 213.7 inches overall length; the Buyer's Digest lists 213.6. Overall length is withheld from the verified specifications. Turning-diameter figures and axle-ratio tables also differ between editions and are withheld.
235-hp 352: the AMA general-specification and engine-detail sheets differ in their compression figures; the engine sheet gives a different fuel description from the retail publications. The disputed compression and fuel specification are withheld.
High-performance edition: the Buyer's Digest, PDF 23, also lists a 360-hp 352 Super V-8 requiring special equipment. It does not appear in the August 1959 catalog's four-engine list. It remains outside this three-source verified set until the separate high-performance Ford publications are reconciled.
Production totals, VIN and paint-code tables, prices, exact axle combinations and additional trim claims remain outside this reference until three distinct original publication families support them.

Framed Print
Framed Print
Our framed prints feature a black, hand-stained solid wood frame with a white mat, museum-quality paper, archival inks, Acrylite glazing, and hanging hardware. The frame features a slim 0.8-inch face and projects 1.3 inches from the wall, creating a clean, contemporary shadow-box effect. Made in the USA or Europe, depending on your location.
Stretched Canvas
Stretched Canvas
Our stretched canvas prints are produced on acid-free, pH-neutral, and fade-resistant canvas. Each canvas is hand-glued to solid wood stretcher bars and stretched over 1.25-inch-thick pine bars. Mounting brackets are included. Made in the USA or Europe, depending on your location.
Giclée Art Print
Giclée Art Print
Our Giclée prints are produced using premium 200gsm semi-gloss paper and high-quality archival inks. Each print includes a white border around the perimeter.
For the 40 x 60 size, we use 250gsm museum-quality archival paper with an off-white, uncoated finish.
The listed size refers to the overall paper dimensions. The image is printed proportionally within the selected paper size. Made in the USA or Europe, depending on your location.
ChromaLuxe
ChromaLuxe
ChromaLuxe prints use a state-of-the-art coating process that infuses the image directly onto sheets of alloy metal. The result is photography with an exceptional combination of vibrancy, clarity, and durability.
Each print arrives ready to hang. An alloy subframe on the back allows the artwork to float away from the wall for a sleek, modern appearance. This is the finest-quality print we offer. Made in the USA.
