1959 Ford Galaxie Fairlane 500 Retractable 5.8L

We are offering for sale one Very Rare One year only 1959 Galaxie Fairlane 500 Hideaway Hard top Convertible. This vehicle comes from a long time owner(25+years). They came with 3 motors and this one has the biggest! Its the 352/300hp with Automatic Transmission and Factory A/C. (Which Works) Power Steering and Power Brakes. #2 condition Black Book on this car is $75. 00! This is a great buy!!!!Well loved and it shows. It is painted in the original Factory Raven Black. We have looked and can not find any current or previous rust on the vehicle. She starts right up and runs and drives great. The plastic is still on the seats and the dash is in great shape. Door panels are nice and usable but not perfect. All the chrome and Stainless is good and very usable. Low miles are supposed to be original. We can not guarantee this but i believe it. Everything on the car is supposed to be original except the previous owner put in a new radiator right before we got her. She has dual exhaust and sounds awesome. There does seem to be a minor exhaust leak at the manifold on the drivers side that you can hear when she is cold. The car is a 15 footer. The paint still shines and looks good in the pictures but it is an older repaint and you will probably want to paint her for showing purposes. The bad is the top does not complete the locking process. The mechanics go up and down but do not complete closing. We have had the top up and down and can have it locked in the closed position for transportation. We have just left the top down and only used her in nice weather. Please ask any and all questions before you bid. An inspection of the vehicle is welcome anytime before you bid. Once you bid you have entered into a contract to purchase. NOT A CONTRACT TO INSPECT!
