Summary:
A car for the rest of your life
Faults:
I bought it “junk yard fresh” and got it to start with starting fluid, fresh gas and gas tank. In 1959 Chevrolet used a particularly poor steel, so modern patch panels in the rear quarters are a given. Keeping the floor pans, and fenders well painted and sanding out any hint of rust is a must.
General Comments:
Incredibly simply and reliable car. Mechanical parts are a cinch, decorative parts can be expensive from your local “stick it to ya” NOS parts hoarder.
