1959 FORD GALAXIE GROUND UP RESTORATION
BARN FIND with 41,510 original miles, without any accidents or dents on original body.
BODY AND PAINT:Fresh body and paint completed 12/2019 by a body and paint expert who has worked at Caliber Collision for 28 years. Pictured you will see the straight body before it was painted. Nice body lines, NO RUST anywhere on the clean original floors or trunk area, fenders completely solid with the exception of ONLY one small rust repair on the whole car. This car has several coats of paint and is very thick. The vehicle was painted using single stage just like the factory would have done and color sanded and buffed. The trunk area was completely restored and fully painted with a new trunk rubber seal, trunk mat, wide white wall spare tire and original jack. All door jams painted. Under hood completely sandblasted, hood, firewall, and inner fenders, and painted. Front clip was removed, sandblasted, and painted. DASHBOARD was also REMOVED, sandblasted, and painted. Car was assembled without any scratches or chips on fresh paint. I have left over pink and white paint. This vehicle is the original color scheme, Colonial White and Geranium.
