The previous owner lived in Belpre, Ohio. Dressed in President Red (code F), the car's paint and trim are in overall excellent condition, with some minor blemishes visible upon close inspection. The bodywork is straight, including the rear fender skirts, the car's chrome bumpers look great but the car's windshield wipers are inoperable. The power-folding white soft-top provides great contrast to the paint and looks good. The car rides on Coker Classic wide whitewalls, size P215/75R14 at all four corners. Within those tires are steel wheels topped by body-color factory wheel covers. The tires and wheels are in better-than-average condition. Under the hood is the Ford-Edsel 361 CID "Super Express" V-8 engine (VIN code W) with a four-barrel carburetor and dual exhausts. Backing this motor is a Dual Power Drive three-speed automatic transmission (code 4) and nine-inch rear end with a 2.91:1 differential (code 5). Inside, the car's red and black (code 44) interior is in overall very good order. The red and black vinyl seats look great while the black carpeting is in satisfactory order. The big three-spoke steering wheel looks ready for cruising while the highly stylized and metal instrument panel sparkles, however the fuel gauge is inoperable but the inner door panels are in very good order. A factory AM radio completes the interior. The 1959 Edsels were introduced in the fall of 1958. However, for the 1959 model year, the Citation andPacer models were dropped from Edsel's model range for 1959, as was the trouble-proneTeletouch system. The 1959 Edsel's styling was significantly toned-down, as was the vertical grille assembly, which now featured a fine bar pattern.The Corsair now represented the premium Edsel model range, replacing the discontinued Citation. Unlike in 1958, the Corsair now shared its body panels with the Ranger - the two being differentiated by trim and options. The Corsair also gained a four-doorsedanand convertible version. The 1959 Corsair rode on a 120-inch wheelbase and the 361CIDFE V-8 was standard in sedans, with either a two- or four-barrel carburetoras was a three-speedmanual transmission.
