59 T Bird: A Rare Convertible Find

When it comes to classic cars, few are as iconic and alluring as the 1959 Ford Thunderbird convertible. With only around 10,000 units produced, this rare find is a true gem for any car enthusiast. Located in Bixby, Ohio, this stunning droptop is now up for grabs on eBay.

The story behind this car's discovery is as fascinating as it is intriguing. According to the seller, the previous owner, an elderly gentleman, drove the T-Bird into his facility in 2008 and left it there. For 14 years, the car sat idly, waiting for its next owner to come along and give it a new lease on life.

Although the carburetor needs some attention, as well as the brakes, this Ford Thunderbird is still drivable after a bit of TLC. The seller has even gone ahead and replaced the top and hydraulics, which are still in their original boxes and valued at $1,700 alone. Additionally, the dash pad is said to be new, although it appears to have some wrinkles.

One notable feature of this 1959 Thunderbird is its leather upholstery, an option that became available on certain models during this time period. The car also boasts a powerful 352 V8 engine, which was a common configuration for many Ford vehicles from the late 1950s.

For those who appreciate the finer things in life, the T-Bird's unique design and styling make it a true head-turner. With its Pepto Bismol pink paint job, this convertible is sure to attract attention wherever you go. And with its rarity and history, this Ford Thunderbird is an investment opportunity that won't want to pass up.

Don't miss your chance to own this rare 1959 T-Bird convertible for $19,000 or make an offer on eBay that the seller can't refuse. With over 53,000 units built in 1955-57 and a limited production run of only 10,000 cars in 1959, this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime find.
