1959 Ford Galaxie Skyliner Hardtop Convertible

This 1959 Ford Galaxie Skyliner is finished in two-tone turquoise and white over a matching two-tone interior, and it is equipped with a retractable folding hardtop, a Continental kit, dual spotlights, reproduction Space Saver luggage, and more. Power is supplied by a 352ci V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission and a 2. 91:1 rear axle. A refurbishment reportedly was commissioned approximately 18 years ago, and the car was acquired by the selling dealer in 2015. The body was reportedly repainted in the factory two-tone Indian Turquoise and Colonial White (DE) during a refurbishment conducted approximately 18 years ago. Additional exterior features include chrome rear-wheel skirts, an extended rear bumper and a color-matched hard cover for the full-size spare, and dual front spotlights. 14? steel wheels with chrome covers are wrapped in Goodyear Custom Super Cushion whitewall tires. The interior is upholstered in a turquoise and white two-tone motif described by Ford as “Radiant Turquoise Sof-Textured Vinyl Bolster and Turquoise Striped Nub Fabric w/ Silver Strand” (34), which corresponds to the door-jamb trim tag pictured in the gallery. Additional amenities include Select Aire air conditioning, a four-way power front bench seat, and power windows. “Galaxie” and “Fairlane 500” badges decorate the glovebox door; the model name was changed to “Galaxie Skyliner” partway through production for the 1959 model year.
