Prototype History: The Ford line of cars was refreshed for 1952, although remaining similar to the all-new 1949 Fords. This time, curved one-piece windshield glass joined a new "Mileage Maker" straight-6 engine with 101 hp. This design would continue through the 1954 model year, with an updated design offered in 1955. The model was available in several body styles: 2 or 4-door sedan, 2-door station wagon (Ranch Wagon), 4-door station wagon (Country Sedan), 2-door coupe, 2-door hardtop (Crestline Victoria), 2-door convertible (Crestline Sunliner) and 2-door sedan delivery.

The base model was called "Mainline" and the mid-level called "Customline". The top "Crestline" included the "Sunliner" convertible, and the "Victoria" hardtop. The station wagon continued with the "Country Squire". In 1954, a new addition was the "Crestline Skyliner" two-door hardtop, which featured an acrylic glass panel over the front half of the roof.
