Ford Country Squire (second generation)

Following a redesign of the Ford model line for the 1952 model year, the second generation of the Country Squire was introduced, designed by Gordon Buehrig under a goal to maximize parts commonality between sedan and station wagon lines. It was the equivalent of the Crestline sedan, and for 1952 all steel bodies replaced wooden body structures to reduce production costs, with simulated woodgrain trim. It gained an inch in wheelbase and lost about 10 inches in length. Its model years run from 1952 to 1954.
