The Ford Country Squire Cruise-O-Matic is an estate/station wagon with 5 doors and a front mounted powerplant which transmits the power through the rear wheels.
Power is produced by an overhead valve, 4.8 litre naturally aspirated 8 cylinder engine, with 2 valves per cylinder that provides power and torque figures of 195 bhp (198 PS/145 kW) at 4400 rpm and 383 N·m (282 lb·ft/39.1 kgm) at 2400 rpm respectively.
Power is transferred to the wheels via a 3 speed automatic gearbox.
