For Sale: 1959 Ford Thunderbird in Arlington, Texas

Vehicle Description

1959 Ford Thunderbird 2-Door Hardtop Only 28,500 miles!

Price reduced by $8,000 for a quick sale!

This is a true survivor with only 28,500 miles and is in remarkable shape for being almost 60 years old. The car is almost entirely stock with the exception of a few repairs that have been made over the years. We have the original owners manual and registration from 1959 to go with the car.

The engine is the original 352cid V-8 that pulls 300 horsepower with a 4 barrel carburetor coupled to a Cruise-O-Matic transmission with 3:10 gearing. The car has had the water pump replaced, the radiator re-cored, bypass hose replaced, water control valve replaced, custom fit new spark plug wires, points and condenser replaced, ignition timing adjusted and the battery compartment and soldering redone with new cables. The entire brake system has also been gone through and overhauled including repacking the front wheel bearings and replacing the seals.

The suspension is all stock with the exception of the upper and lower control arm bushings, idler arm and sway bar components being replaced. The front end has also been aligned.

The interior is just as it came in 1959 with the original leather on all of the seats. They were taken apart and all of the foam padding has been replaced prior to putting the covers back on. All of the leather was cleaned and reconditioned along with the front seat mechanisms adjusted and lubricated. All of the electric window motors that needed were replaced. The original AM radio works perfectly and plays through the revolutionary (at the time) center speaker located in the console of the car. The dash panel and pad were removed, copied cut, dyed and replaced as the old one was cracked and faded. All of the gauges were taken apart and lubed. All of the mechanisms for the clock are intact but it is not currently running. All of the interior lights and other gauges/warning lots function properly.

The exterior is in very good shape for its age with no rust and only some minor paint flaws. All of the chrome is in excellent shape with the exception of the arrows on the door and the antenna holder on the front. There is some pitting on those parts but nothing that cannot be fixed and re-chromed. The major parts (bumpers, trim etc.) are all in great shape.

This is an exceptional car for a Thunderbird enthusiast that is looking to do minimal work to have a show winning car that is also a pleasure to drive. It runs and rides like an absolute dream.

It is being offered at $29,990.00!
