1961 Ford Country Sedan

For the 1961 model year Ford fitted a tailgate with a self storing window that could be rolled down into the gate by a crank on the outside or by an electric motor worked by the key or an inside switch. The Country Sedan of 1961 had this new gate. It was the cheaper wagon beside the woodgrain Country Squire and outsold the Squire in every year. The Country Sedan was the mid trim station wagon of the full size Ford range, with plain body sides.
