Big Dave ◊ 2008-06-08 17:31	Yes it is a 2 door. Four door would have a small window at the very back.

I found there were 3 options, but I can only find two (perhaps the third is without the styletone insert used on the Custom 300 series) http://www.hubcapcafe.com/ocs/pages01/ford5805.htm http://www.fawcett-movie-cars.com/50_59_cars/1958fordcopcar92.html (I've never seen those "holes" on the rear fender. I guess the idea carried over into 59 on the Tudor Business Sedan.) -- Last edit: 2008-06-09 06:56:57
