Vehicle description

HI I AM SELLING MY 1959 FORD TBIRD. THIS CAR IS TURN KEY AND GO. THE WORK HAS ALL BEEN DONE. THIS CAR IS HIGHLY OPTIONED. IT RETAINS IT"S ORIGINAL 352CI 4V V8 ENGINE. IT WAS RATED AT 300HP AND IT IS VERY DESIRABLE. IT ALSO RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL CRUISE-O-MATIC 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR STARTS RIGHT UP AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY UNUSUAL NOISES OR SMOKE. THE CAR PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. THE TRANS DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES AS THERE ARE NO DELAYS WHEN PUTTING IT INTO GEAR AND IT SHIFTS VERY SMOOTH. I DO NOT SEE ANY LEAKING OR SEAPING OF ANY FLUIDS. THE BRAKES ARE HIGH AND VERY RESPONSIVE. I WAS TOLD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THAT THEY ARE ALL NEW, INCLUDING MOST OF THE LINES. THE EXHAUST IS ALL NEW STAINLESS, FROM FRONT TO BACK. THE EXHAUST SOUNDS GREAT. THE GAS TANK AND ALL THE LINES ARE NEW AS WELL. THERE ARE NO SUSPENSION NOISES. THE CAR DRIVES DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH EASE.
THE EXTERIOR WAS REDONE A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO. THE PAINT AND BODY IS NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING. I AM TELLING YOU THE CAR LOOKS LIKE IT IS STILL WET. I HAVE NOT SEEN A PAINT JOB OF THIS QUALITY IN A LONG TIME. IT WAS REDONE IN WIMBELTON WHITE. THE PANELS ARE RAZOR STRAIGHT; AND I MEAN RAZOR STRAIGHT. I HAVE GONE OVER THIS CAR MANY TIMES TO FIND SOME BONDO AND I CAN NOT FIND ANY. ALL THE SEAMS LINE UP BETTER THEN WHEN IT WAS NEW. ALL THE STAINLESS AND BADGES LOOK TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED OR RECHROMED. THE ROCKERS ARE EXCELLENT AND ARE NOT BONDOED UP. THE INNER WHEEL WELLS TEND TO GET SOFT. IN THIS CAR THEY ARE EXCELLENT. THE INNER DOORS ARE PERFECT AND AGAIN THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF RUST NOT EVEN IN THE USUAL PLACES. THE ONLY FLAW IS THERE ARE 4 SMALL BUBBLES ON THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE FENDER THAT YOU HAVE TO REALLY LOOK FOR TO SEE. THE BUMPERS ARE EXCELLENT, ESPECIALLY THE FRONT BUMPER. I BELIEVE THAT BUMPER WAS EITHER REPLACED OR RECHROMED RECENTLY I REALLY DONT KNOW FOR SURE. ALL THE RUBBER APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND IS STILL EXCELLENT. THIS INCLUDES THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND REAR WINDOW. ALL THE GLASS IS EXCELLEN THERE IS NO CHIPPING OR CRACKS. THERE IS ALSO NO DISCOLORIZATION. THE SIDE VENT WINDOWS OPEN AND CLOSE WITH EASE.
THE TRUNK IS LINED AND I DONT KNOW IF THATS NEW OR THE ORIGINAL. IT IS HOWEVER EXCELLENT. THERE IS OF COURSE NO RUST IN THE TRUNK NOT EVEN IN THE USUAL PLACES.
THE UNDERSIDE IS ALSO EXCELLENT. THERE IS NO RUST UNDER THE CAR EXCEPT FOR SOME SURFACE RUST. I HAVE POKED A SCREW DRIVER ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE AND I CANNOT FIND ONE SOFT SPOT. I AM NOT SURPRISED BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD PUT THIS KIND OF MONEY IN IT IF IT HAD ANY.
THIS CAR RETAINS ITS RARE FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING. THERE IS A STICKER ON THE COMPRESSOR THAT IT WAS CONVERTED TO 134 A COUPLE YEARS AGO. AS IS FOR THE REST OF THIS CAR, IT OF COURSE WORKS VERY WELL, AND BLOWS ICE COLD.
THE ENTIRE INTERIOR WAS REDONE AT THE TIME OF PAINT. IT IS FRESH AND NEW. THAT INCLUDES THE SEATS, DOOR PANELS (FRONT AND REAR), THE KICK PANELS, THE CARPET AND THE DASH PAD. NEVER SAW ANYONE GO TO THIS EXTENT BEFORE BUT THE CHRONE ON THE DASH, ALL OF IT (INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, THE RADIO SUROUND AND THE GLOVE BOX COVER) HAS ALL EITHER BEEN REPLACED OR RECHROMED. I CANT PUT INTO WORDS HOW INCREDABLE THE INSIDE OF THIS CAR LOOKS. ALL THE OTHER STAINLESS IS ALSO THERE AND ALSO EXCELLENT. THIS CAR WAS ORIGINALLY ORDERED WITH THE FACTORY POWER SEAT AND IT IS STILL THERE. THE POWER SEAR STILL WORKS AS NEW. THE CONSOLE ALTHOUGH I DONT KNOW FOR SURE IF ITS BEEN REDONE IS ALSO EXCELLENT IT DOES NOT SHOW ANY WEAR. THIS CAR WAS EQUIPED WITH POWER WINDOWS AND 3 OF THE WINDOWS WORK GREAT. THE REAR DRIVERS WINDOW DOES NOT OPERATE AND I HAVE NEVER LOOKED INTO WHY. THE INSTRUMENTS LOOK GREAT AND DO NOT SHOW ANY WEAR. EVERYTHING WORKS EXCEPT FOR THE GAS GAGE AND AGAIN I NEVER LOOKED INTO WHY. ALL THE LITES WORK ON THIS CAR INCLUDING THE DASH LITES AND THE INTERIOR LITES.
