Description for Ford Other 1958

YOU ARE BUYING A 1958 FORD COURIER SEDAN DELIVERY PROJECT . NO MOTOR . 3-SPEED MANUAL TRANS . FORD 9" REAR END WITH 3. 89 GEARS . INTAGE AMERICAN RACING TORQUE THRUST WHEELS WITH NEW LUG NUTS . NEW LEFT AND RIGHT DOOR GLASS . ALL STAINLESS STEEL BODY TRIM AND ONE COURIER EMBLEM IS INCLUDED . ALL INSIDE DOOR AND REAR INTERIOR PANELS ARE INCLUDED FOR TEMPLATES . THIS IS A VERY SOLID OLD FORD HOWEVER THERE IS A LITTLE RUST AND OR REPAIRS IN THE NORMAL SPOTS BUT NOT BAD AT ALL . FENDER TOPS ABOVE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SOLID AND RUST FREE . THE HOOD IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND FITS VERY NICE BUT IN THE PICTURES THE GAPS LOOK BIG THAT IS BECAUSE I UNBOLTED IT AND IT IS JUST SITTING ON THE CAR WITH THE BOLTS IN FINGER TIGHT . THE FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS NO CRACKS BUT THERE IS SOME WIPER ARM RUB . I HAD NEW GLASS MADE FOR THE SIDE WINDOWS THE PASS SIDE IS INSTALLED BUT THE DRIVER SIDE NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED . THE ROCKERS ARE NICE AND LOOK TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT ONE POINT IN TIME . THE FLOORS HAVE HAD A PATCH PANEL SCREWED DOWN ON TOP OF THEM BUT ARE NOT THAT BAD UNDERNEATH (SEE PICS) . THIS IS A VERY RARE CAR AND I HAVE "1957" IN MY LISTING TITLE BECAUSE FORD JUST USED UP THE LEFTOVER 57 BODIES FOR THE 1958 COURIERS WITH A DIFFERENT SIDE TRIM IT STARTS BEHIND THE DOOR AND GO'S FORWARD ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF THE FRONT FENDER . ALSO DIFFERENT ON THE 1958'S WERE DUAL HEADLIGHTS I HAVE READ THIS WAS AN OPTION ON THE DELIVERY'S AND COULD OF BEEN ORDERED BOTH WAYS BUT IM NOT SURE IF THAT WAS THE CASE OR SOMEONE SWITCHED THEM FOR 1957 UNITS . I AM NOT SURE OF THE PRODUCTION NUMBERS ONE SITE I FOND ONLINE CLAIMS UNDER 325 WERE MADE FOR 1958 AND ANOTHER SITE CLAIMS UNDER 3000 WERE MADE EITHER WAY IT IS VERY LOW . THIS DELIVERY WAS ORDERED THRU FORD FOR THE ATLANTA AIRPORT WHERE IT WAS USED FOR ON SITE MAINTENANCE UNTIL IT WAS SOLD OFF IN THE MID 1970'S AND DRIVEN UNTIL 1983 WHEN IT WAS PUT INTO CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE UNTIL OCTOBER OF 2014 WHEN I PURCHASED IT . AT SOME POINT IN TIME A 260 V-8 AND A 3-SPEED TRANS WERE INSTALLED FROM A 1964 MUSTANG BUT WHEN I GOT THE CAR THE 260 WAS LOCKED UP FROM SITTING SO I PULLED IT OUT WITH PLANS OF INSTALLING A 302 BUT ANOTHER 1950'S FORD PROJECT CAME ALONG AND I CANT FINISH BOTH SO THAT IS WHY I PUT IT UP FOR SALE ANYWAY WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PICS IS WHAT YOU GET NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS .
