    Beautiful restoration job. One question. Why didn't you use the chrome spears on both lower sides of the doors, that were an integral part of the 1959 trim kit, that distinguished the 1959 from the 1958 and 1960??

    Way too much pin stripping, but the rest looks great, I like the root beer brown.

    Nice restoration but, sadly, the 1958 models on up were butt ugly brand new... and still are. Can't imagine why Ford , at the time, seemed intent to destroy Thunderbird's once very very sexy image... and absolutely succeeded as later models kept getting more and more bloated and hideous.
    At least Chevy didn't follow suit with it's 2-seater rival, the Corvette. Yeah, beginning in 1968 they were crappy designs up until not that long ago, but at least they were true to their beginnings as a sexy 2-seat sports car. My then new 1980 L-48 was beautiful and sexy but underpowered and handled like crap. What's worse was the initial quality featuring sloppy fit and finish, the worst I've experienced in any new vehicle to date. Thankfully, the new 'vettes are amazing. Too bad the Thunderbird is history.

      @@michaelshort7297You went out of your way to say that tired old line? Really? If Ford didn't want to make the two-seat T-Bird anymore they should have just quit making them. The original T-Bird should have been the only model made. They already made sedans. They just didn't have pride in their choices
