1959 Ford Thunderbird

For sale on one of the nicest and RAREST T-bird convertibles around! Extensive restoration on a southern rust free car. Body panels including the floor are original and never rusted! Bottom side of the car was left in factory undercoated condition. The quality of the paint is outstanding!! The bumpers were rechromed and look fantastic too!! New exhaust, brakes and front end. The engine and trans were said to be rebuilt also, the engine starts with no hesitation. Sounds great with no strange noises. The automatic transmission shifts as it should. It goes right down the road with no wandering, it.s a joy to drive.
To sum it up so far, the mechanics and cosmetics are in fantastic shape.
The car has power windows, power steering, power brakes, power seat AND a power top that work great! The power top works perfectly and is very easy to stow, somewhat like a retractable hard top works. Just a flip of a button takes around a minute and you're off!!
It's the 352 cubic inch "interceptor" engine, factory chrome dress up kit and take a look at those wide whites on Kelsey style wire wheels!! Beautiful "Continental Kit" with a brand new whitewall inside.
Whats bad about the car?? Well, the previous owner installed a modern sound system in the car, the unit is tucked away in the glove compartment. The speakers, however are mounted in the lower 1/4 of the door panels and kick panels as pictured. It's not something I would have done but easily rectified. Also, the AC works and blows cold but has a leak that needs to be addressed. That's about it. It's not so over the top restored that you'd be afraid to drive it. It's for sure a trophy winner at any car show you take it to, it's a head turner!!
Any questions? Give me a call anytime I'll be happy to answer them. Call Tom 402-650-3849
I'll be asked the reserve I'm sure...what I'll say about that is that it's a LOW RESERVE and makes it possible for anyone to own this beautiful classic. the reserve is approximately HALF of the overall restoration costs. Unfortunately there is no paperwork, but it's clear to see someone spent alot of money on this car. The previous owner was an 80 year old local businessman which shared all of the facts about this car.
