Yes.  '56 Ford, also.  The area behind the rear tires on the wagons went
fast, and thereafter gravel would fill the interior.  Also the rocker panels
and on the top of the front fenders right behind the headlights.  Legendary
Rusters here in the salt cities.

In the early 70s I went to central Kansas and was astonished to see rustless
Fords of this era on the street.  By that time they were all gone or going
in the Twin Towns.
