Rare and mechanically fascinating, this 1959 Ford Fairlane 500
Galaxie Skyliner features the innovative retractable hardtop system
- a true marvel of the era. The two-tone Indian Turquoise and
Colonial White paint adorns the sweeping body lines and dramatic
fins. A frame-off restoration has resulted in excellent brightwork
and crisp body panels throughout. The white convertible top
includes a glass rear window, while the 14-inch wheels wrapped in
P215/75R14 Coker Classic whitewall tires complete the
period-correct appearance.
The cabin features a fresh teal and white color scheme with newly
upholstered vinyl bench seats that provide ample comfort for
cruising. A painted-to-match turquoise dashboard houses a
refurbished gauge cluster that clearly displays vital information.
The homemade center console adds functionality while the floor is
covered with fresh green carpet throughout. Modern amenities
include an aftermarket AM/FM CD player with speakers mounted in the
center console. The column-mounted shifter and power steering make
for effortless driving on any road.
A 352 cubic inch V8 engine sits in this Fairlane, paired with a
three-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. The motor is
equipped with a four-barrel Holley carburetor and connected to a
dual exhaust system with aftermarket mufflers. An aluminum radiator
with an electric push fan has been added during restoration. The
stock suspension uses coil springs and shocks up front with leaf
springs and shocks in the rear. A Ford 9-inch rear end completes
the drivetrain setup, while drum brakes handle stopping duties.
