1959 Ford Fairlane 500 Galaxie 2dr - Classic Cruiser -

Up for your consideration is my 59 Fairlane 500. I bought this vehicle

with the intention of restoring it but due to economic reasons and

lack of time, I have decided my plans have to change and therefore

have decided to sell This vehicle is in very good condition. This is

a running driving car. You can leave it as is and have the rat rod

look popular now or restore it.This is a very solid start to your

restoration as this was my idea when I acquired it. The body is

solid with no major filler in the panels.I made one video of the

exterior and did a magnet test on the whole car to show the lack

of bondo or filler on this car. The other videos are of the trunk

area and the underside.If you're serious about buying this car I

suggest you send me your email address and I will send them to

you.They will more clearly show what I'm describinghere. The

motor is a replacement 390 cu. in. and is running as it should

very smoothly. Theautomatic transmission shifts very well and

is operation well. This engine and transmission are running well

and moves this big car effortlessly. The car runs smooth and gives

you that big boat feeling these classics are known for.The car does

have an exhaust manifold leak. Not sure if the manifold is cracked

or a bolt is loose. Dual exhaust.There is surface rust visible but no

rust thru anywhere except acouple tiny holes on the driver side

front floorpan shown in oneof the videos.The radio is aftermarket

and is not working. I also have the original radio which goes with

the car. Again this is a very solid car to start a restoration project

with. You can register and drive as is while you work on it. The

interior is complete but does need work as the door panels and

headliner and rug are not good. I have a replacement headliner that

goes with the car.I have all the chrome for the car but it needs to be

replated and polished as there is pitting and dullness in the chrome

pieces.Bumpers are there and in good condition but also need

replating. .Door jambs are solid as are the rockers where there

is minimal surface rust visible. The frame is solid withno rust

thruanywhere on the frame. Thereare a couple of small holes

showing on the radiator support underneath but nothing major.

All these issues can be seen in my videos so please email me and

I will provide them for you. No power brakes or power steering.

There is a leak coming from the oil pan area shown in the video

the car runs a bit loud when driving due to the exhaust manifold

issue but it does not heat up and the radiator and fan seem to be

working fine.The windshield has a small star crack in the upper

center shown in my video and two other windows have small cracks

also shown in video. Windows roll up and down and I have the door

handles for them. Seats are very solid with very little in the way of

major tears or damage. Overall this is a great car to work on or drive

as is.These classic fairlanes are works of art and not verymany

around. Trunk area is also solid with surface rust showing. Original

jack and owners manual also included.Before youmake an offer
