I thought you'd like a look at this nicely restored 1959 Ford Thunderbird. They've done a great job on this one...looks just like it rolled out of the showroom yesterday. It's powered by the original, numbers matching 352 V8, backed by an automatic. The paint is slick and the interior is very impressive. I hope you like taking a look at it, thanks for watching!

With a jumping bass and off-beat syncopation, this is straight from Memphis' Beale Street. The Hammond organ and electric guitar play together as longtime friends, while the melody changes hands from guitar to organ to electric piano. 011

Looks just like it rolled out of the showroom yesterday!! That color goes well with that car!!☺
I'm sure they were a real bargain at that time. The values are definitely starting to come up on these. Thanks for checking it out Jim!
My favorite T-Bird model ever!!! GORGEOUS!!!
I have watched your video's many times and this is the cleanest and most original Fort Thunderbird I have seen. I love this car, and I could be tempted to pay the price to own this one.
I've always liked the interiors on the T-birds. This one is particularly nice. Thanks for checking it out!
I was really impressed by the dash too...very cool. Thanks for checking it out!
Thanks for taking a look!
Love seeing these still around. Hope this one is still being driven by someone who appreciates its greatness.
What a wonderful color combo. 1959 was the best looking year for the Square Birds.
Yeah, it's not bad at all, considering the condition it's in. Thanks for checking it out Capt!
I actually saw the second hand on the clock working...something you rarely see in a car this old...I'm impressed.
That is one sweet ride. A definite must to be shown on the road working its' magic ! Great presentation !
Very nice 59 Thunderbird. I like your presentation. You didnt mention it but your T Bird also has Factory A/C! At least you have the A/C chrome vents just above the radio.
Thanks for taking a look Kevin!
Thanks for checking it out!
The style was ahead of its time
That car is near perfect and like new. It is beautiful!
Thanks a TON for the detailed look at that one. It helps fill in the blanks from the parts missing on Unkie Scott's 59.
¡¡¡ ¿ Por que no viviré en USA ? !!!!! ESTE ES EL T-BIRD QUE MAS ME GUSTA, GRACIAS POR PERMITIRME DISFRUTARLO A TRAVÉS DEL VIDEO
Wow! What a cruiser and looker
georgous looking car! With a cool classic paint job. I really appreciate you showing us this. Looks like it came right off the assembly line! Love these old cars.😁
'58 and '59 are my favorite years for T-Birds. Wouldn't mind owning that one. I'll let you know if I win the lottery.
Glad you like it!
Yep, this one is really nicely done. Thanks for checking it out my friend!
That is very true....I see a lot of stopped clocks. Thanks for taking a look John.
thank you for sharing the color ive been wanting to paint my car this color and i haven't been able to find the name of this exact color thank you so much for sharing
Thanks for taking a look at it!
I'm sure it would cost more to restore one. Thanks for taking a look!
I´ve dreamed of this car ever since I first cast eyes on it when I was 7 years old...
Thanks so much for posting this. It is such a treat whenever you get to see T-Birds from these years. Love the color too.
great looking car
This was my all time favoured car from being a kid, to today...Who ever gets this one is a lucky person...
They definitely are sharp looking cars. Thanks for taking a look at this one!
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching Matt!
Glad it helped Greg, thanks for watching!
Damn good looking car.
Sharp Looking 1959 Ford T
-Bird
My favorite classic car!
That was a good resto on that I like that year Very Nice
These cars were built alongside the Lincoln Continental and were built like bank vaults.There's still a lot of these and the next 2 generations around because they were just so well made, they were also prized by their owners and well cared for early in their lives, making them good candidates for restoration. This isn't my favorite bodystyle, that goes to the '61 to '63's, but this car is just gorgeous!
Glad you like it. Thank you for watching!
Like it, very nice
Nice
She's a beauty!!
Hey, I bought one of these back in '74. Sure wish I had it today. It was considered an old used car at the time. Hindsight!
what a beautiful t-bird !!! i enjoyed the vid. thx!
A beautiful resto, and at a bargain price !
Awsome beautyfull t bird 🤟 love the color and the interior just Nice car big bring the family to the drive in movie and se Rio bravo Dean Martin and ricky nelson singing purple eyes in the canyon would be great thanks jeff for a great video
I bought my 59 bird last summer after a co-worker died unexpectedly. I decided that I shouldn't put off fulfilling some of my dreams, just do what I can right now. The Lady Bird needs a lot of work but I love her anyway! Plus, it's kinda funny to see the surprised look on people's faces when they find out that she's owned by a mid-forties woman.
Suzanne Parker It's true, none of us really knows how long we have left, so it's important to enjoy yourself along the way. Too many people, set their dreams to the side for a later time. I think it's great that you went out and made yours happen. Good luck with that T-bird, thanks for dropping by!
such a beautiful car thanks for the vid :)
I used to go to a yearly track and field clinic held at the nearby nearby Marriott. Thanks for your regular visits to Gate Way.
That's cool George, hope it brought back some great memories. Yeah, I'd say your model building skills have progressed a bit :)
If the back up lights work, I'll buy it.
Nice car 🚗
No, it's a long way from done...we've just been busy with other things lately.
Sweeet!
I think you're right about that.
I like that kind, classy.
I expected that would cost more than that !
Hermoso!!!!!!!
This car resembles the 1959 Ford Galaxy
riding in comfort
GANGZTER CAR 🚗 G-RIDE 🚗 BABY
where are the other doors?
I had a 60 T Bird with turquoise interior. 2 big issues the electric morots for the windows and the center consul speaker which was bad but replacing it meant dropping the motor. Oh, and it was gas hog dog
I have one exactly like that one, my manager sold it to me 10 years ago I'm only 39 years old my wife is 33 and we will have fun all over the country with it. and is black, and today is going to the body shop I can't wait to have it back it'll be beautiful I'm excited.
Mine has power windows power seats and air pump windshield wipers, and it has like a Paris Air shocks on the rear axle is that original can somebody answer my question thank you.
As always, love your videos.
Are you fininshed with your project car? Haven't seen any videos lately about it...just wondering.
Cream puff!!
I like that one where to go and buy that one let me know soon !!
From luxury -sports-car to Luxury sports coupe ,only americans liked this change!
Looks like it has the A/C vents in the dash but I didn't see a compressor under the hood. My favorite year T'Bird.
That is because so many people who may put $30 grand in a restoration seem to stop at restoring the A/C for some reason. Some people even remove all A/C components. Others lie and say "A/C works, just needs charging" and yet the belt is not installed. I do not know why but so many people do not think A/C is important on a classic car. And so many people are intimidated by restoring A/C systems. Heck if you are going to put $20-50 grand in a restoration, what's another $5 grand? R12 can still be had for $30 a can on ebay. I personally would never buy a car that did not have a fully functioning FACTORY A/C. All the cars I have restored also had the A/C restored as well.
Mine has AC.. mine is in this kind of condition..
the chrome, bumpers ,ect. what happened to cars/ wing wings. kids dont know what a wing wing is, i have the last collector car and its going up in price. quickly, 2002 thunderbird, plastic cars are awful. there not even tough. its so cheap plastic. i cant believe what happened to our cars
thats cheap, couldn't restore one for that price
Thanks for taking a look!
Glad you like it. Thank you for watching!
