Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is offering this really cool
1959 Ford Custom 300 Tudor sedan. The 300 was the series with the
least amount of frills. Many were sold but used as basic
transportation. Many did not survive over these past nearly six
decades, making this one a real conversation piece. The first thing
you notice about this car is the stance and the color. Painted a
pleasing shade of bright silver, matte black paint accentuates this
Ford's classic lines. A graphic along the rockers let everyone know
this is a Custom 300 model. The custom grille is very unique and
there is custom pinstriping found throughout the vehicle, even in
the door jambs. A set of A-R Hopster wheels give it the stance and
attitude a car of this stature needs. Climb inside the roomy
interior, and the nicely upholstered medium blue vinyl and cloth
seats take you back to another time when cars could comfortably
seat six adults. New matching carpet with courtesy lights along the
floor give the car a pleasing aura when the doors are open. As you
reach for the reduced-size steering wheel (by 2"), the shifter for
the C-6 automatic appears to be a manual shifter because the clutch
pedal is still there! Temperature inside is easy to regulate with
both heat and AC and power steering makes this full-size car steer
effortlessly. Under the hood lies a late model 351 CID engine with
a Holley carb atop the intake and stock exhaust manifolds sending
the spent gases to the back of the car through a dual exhaust
system. This combo really makes the car go, but a set of front disc
brakes and standard drums on the rear make sure it stops reliably
every time. To see 100-plus pictures and a video of this awesome
