I always loved the body style of the '59 Fords... just gorgeous!

School buddy picked up one of these fully loaded for $200, top quit because of a bad ground he fixed it and it worked perfect, we had a lot of fun in that car. I like the 57 even better..

A dear friend of mine had a '58 Skyliner in the mid-sixties.  She decided to get rid of it after experiencing a flat tire with the top down.  Apparently, the top will not operate unless the car is level and you can't get to the jack and spare unless the top is up. Made for an interesting challenge!  She traded it on a Dodge Phoenix!  Yuk!

Yeah, those retractables were something, they were a real PITA to work on too when they quit.

Very first car was a 61 Falcon. Second was 58 Fire chief where the head lit up :P Both didn't last long and paid like 50 or 75 bucks. Picked up a 69 Spitfire then got my 1970 Boss 302 that I traded in on a new 1974 Mustang II Ghia. Yeah I was stupid, but someone here was just as stupid. Weren't you Art LMAO

I think we all had great collectibles and just didn't know it :(
