Tough question as there are both old and new interests. Always wanted a '59 Thunderbird, but would also take a Galaxy or Fairlane from the same year - preferably with the retractable hardtop.

Dave, I'm almost there. Last summer I aquired a 1959 Dodge D100 long wide bed for a very reasonable price (free, I just had to haul it off) The truck has the old polyshpere 318 and a 4 speed. I managed to fire it up after going through the carb and it ran fairly decent considering its been sitting for 15 years (yep, I burned 15 year old gas) It ought to run alot better on some good fuel.

My 11 year old son has taken a liking to the old beast so it looks like it will be his first truck project.

Bobby
