Artifact Overview

The Country Squire was Ford Motor Company's top-of-the-line station wagon throughout its production run from 1950 to 1991. Ford downsized its full-size cars -- including the Country Squire -- for the 1979 model year. The 1979 wagon was 11 inches shorter and some 1,000 pounds lighter than the previous year's model.
