1959 FORD Galaxie Sedan, original 80k miles

1959 Ford Galaxie Galaxie 1st yr with Fairlane Badges Description

Almost like time travel to 1969 and finding in a shed, a real survivor that has managed to stay inside a lot during the past 58 years. Car looks straight, original and does not appear to have any restoration work attempted. It does have a few rust bubbles, holes and chrome pits as expected for its age. As you can see from the pictures the car still has the complete jack, finder skirts and all 4 hubcaps.
I have kept the car indoors in a building with A/C and used as backup car for the 80mi work drive if needed along with meeting the guys occasionally at the Saturday night old car get together. To make sure this vehicle is mechanically sound after I purchased the fuel system was completely refurbished (New Tank, Straps, Sending Unit, Fuel Pump & Carburetor Rebuild restoring the original glass sediment bowl). With Arizona's 110 degree days that was followed by a New 3-Core Radiator (Early Ford Store), 6-blade Fan and all new hoses, coolant overflowrecovery tank and system tests to 20PSI. New battery and all 5 tires are about a year old with less than 500 miles on them.
This car starts every time mo matter what the weather without any blue smoke and will get 22MPG highway at around 65MPH. The Borg-Warner automatic overdrive functions shifting up and down adding additional range to the 3-speed manuals 2nd and 3rd gears as stated in the manual. During the mechanical work I accumulated extra parts including a new OEM fuel pump with glass sediment bowl which can be installed, all spare parts are included.
