HELLO,

YOUR LOOKING AT A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL BARN FIND, A STRAIGHT 1959 CHEVROLET KINGSWOOD STATION WAGON. I AM SELLING THIS '59 FOR A FRIEND, THE OWNER WANTS TO SELL NOW. (please don't bid if your not a serious buyer) I CAN NOT RESTORE THIS '59 AS HE HOPED BECAUSE I HAVE THREE 59'S IN FRONT OF IT AND THE OWNER CAN NOT WAIT ANY LONGER TO DO SOMETHING WITH THIS ONE.

AS THE STORY GOES, THIS CAR WAS RESCUED FROM A FARM BACK IN KANSAS IN 2004. THE CAR LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN RETIRED IN THE LATE 60's WITH OIL TAGS SHOWING SOME MILEAGE HISTORY. ( SHOWING 87,181 NOW ~ TITLE SHOWS 87,000! ) SO IT HAS SAT FOR A GOOD 40 YEARS BEFORE THE CLEAN UP. IT IS A NEAT TIME CAPSULE AS IT SITS. THE CAR THEN SAT IN STORAGE FOR YEARS WAITING FOR A TOTAL RESTORATION TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD EVER SINCE. THIS CAR IS A OVERALL VERY STRAIGHT, ORIGINAL, MAINLY A UNRESTORED CAR, SCREAMING FOR A TOTAL RESTORATION, OR JUST TO LEAVE IT "AS IS" A ORIGINAL CAR WITH THE PATINA PAINT CLASSIC.

THIS IS A ORIGINAL UNALTERED CAR, OR NOT A PIECED TOGETHER FROM 5 CARS '59 KINGSWOOD, WHICH ARE GETTING VERY - VERY HARD TO FIND IN THIS TYPE OF OVERALL UNALTERED ORIGINAL CONDITION. KEPT INSIDE AT A SECURE HEATED FACILITY WITH OTHER CLASSIC CARS IN A COLLECTION. THE OLD OWNER STARTED A RESTORATION IN 2004 WITH SOME DISASSEMBLY OF THE INTERIOR AND MAIN DASH COMPONETS, A TOTAL RESTORATION WAS PLANNED THEN AND THEN HE STOPPED, DUE TO OWNERS CHANGE OF MIND IN BUYING ANOTHER CLASSIC CAR.

THE OWNER DECIDING TO NOW SELL IT AS OF APRIL 2014, ALL THE ORIGINAL PARTS WERE THEN CLEANED AND PUT BACK IN PLACE BY THE OWNER, SO THE RESTORATION WILL BE A EASY ONE, IF THAT IS YOUR GOAL, OR YOU GET A VERY CLEAN GENERALLY UNRESTORED CAR WITH MOST ALL THE PATINIA STILL SHOWING, WHICH IS VERY COOL! THE JAMS AND ALL SEAMS ARE CLEAN AND NICE ORIGINAL PAINT COLORS INSIDE AND OUT. THE MAIN BODY PAINT HAD A RE-PAINT WAY BACK IN THE EARLY SIXTIES AND THE PATINA HAS TAKEN PLACE SINCE THEN. SOME FADE MIST TOUCH UP TO THE BARE SPOTS HAS NOW BEEN DONE FOR PROTECTION OF BARE METAL, BUT THE OVERALL CAR IS CLEAN AND NEVER BEEN TRULY RESTORED, ONLY CLEANED AND DETAILED.

THE ONLY SPOTS THAT HAVE BEEN REPAIRED "IN THE PAST" ARE THE LOWER REAR QUARTERS AND A FEW DINGS HERE AND THERE, WHICH HAD SOME SCRATCH & DING DAMAGE AND RESPOTED IN. HAS SOME PIN HOLES AND SOME FEATHER BONDO AREAS WITH OLD PAINT SPOTED OVER. INSPECTION SHOWS NO BAD ACCIDENT DAMAGE, OR REPLACEMENT METAL WORK, JUST FEATHER BONDO REPAIR FOR SOME DINGS AND SOME POUND OUTS WITH SOME DENTS AS SHOWN.

OVERALL THE CAR IS A VERY SOLID '59 ESPECIALLY IN THE MOST ALL CRITICAL 59 SPOTS. THE ONLY REAL "RUST OUTS" NOW ARE IN THE "LOWER ONLY" FLAT FLOOR PANS, ON ALL 4 MAIN PANS, ONLY AT THE LOWEST POINTS- AS SHOWN IN PICTURES. (PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS!) THE FLOOR SPOTS ARE A VERY EASY FIX FOR A RESTORATION SHOP, AS NO BODY SUPPORTS OR FRAME SUPPORTS ARE NEEDED, JUST LOWER PRE-STAMPED PANS DROPPED IN THERE. WE LEFT THIS AS IS TO SHOW THE ORIGINAL CONDITION TO THE NEW OWNER. THE UPPER, INNER, OUTER, ROCKERS AND FLOOR SEAMS, ARE ALL SOLID AND BEAUTIFUL CLEAN & RUST FREE. THERE IS A LITTLE RUST IN THE UPPER REAR ROOF DRAIN DRIP RAIL, INNER BEHIND MOLDING, AND HAS BEEN NOTED. THE TOP OF THE CAR HAD NO PAINT AT ALL LEFT, ALL SUN BAKED, SO A WHITE SEALER PROTECTION FOR THE BARE METAL WAS APPLIED USING POR-40 WHITE OMNI SEALER (SAME AS THE ORIGINAL COLOR), GOOD STUFF WITH A SATIN FINISH SEALER.

FRONT FENDERS ARE GREAT AND HEADLIGHT LIGHT LOWERS ARE SOLID. HEADLIGHTS WERE DISSASSEMBLED AND NEW REBUILD KIT INSTALLED FOR PROPER GLASS LENSES AIMING. 3 ORIGINAL HEADLIGHT T-3's ARE STILL THERE! REAR TAIL LIGHTS ARE GUIDE 59 ORIGINALS ALSO.

PLEASE NOTE: WHAT DO YOU WANT?

THE CAR CAME WITH A 283 V8 (code is from a 1964 Chevelle SS) & a late AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, THAT IS NOT RUNNING AND OUT OF THE CAR CURRENTLY. THE WORD WAS IT WAS RUNNING WHEN PARKED, 1969?, IT DOES NOT TURN OVER NOW - STUCK FROM SITTING. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS A LATE AUTOMATIC REBUILT IN MID 80'S, MILES? AS old PAPERWORK IN GLOVE BOX SHOWS?. THIS MOTOR AND TRANS WILL ALL NEED GONE THREW IF YOUR GOING TO USE THEM, WE CAN SET THEM IN THERE FOR TRANSPORT IF YOU WANT THEM?. OR TAKE THE CAR, "AS IS" NOW, WITH NO ENGINE OR TRANNY IN IT. THEN YOU CAN DROP IN A '59 BIG BLOCK 348 IN THIS WAGON TO MAKE IT A HIGHER DOLLAR ORIGINAL V8 '59! AS IT IS, IT IS FACTORY CODED A V8 KINGSWOOD WAGON. PLEASE, LET US KNOW WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO, TAKE WITH THE OLD MOTOR, OR NO MOTOR?

ALSO PLEASE NOTE! HE HAS AVAILIBLE A 283 V8 POWERGLIDE AUTOMATIC COMPLETLY REBUILT FOR $2,000 SEPERATE, IF YOU WANT THAT OPTION ALSO, CAN SET IN PLACE ONLY?

FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, HAS VERY STRAIGHT LINES AND NO MAJOR DAMAGE OR BAD 1" THICK BONDO FOUND ANYWHERE. AGAIN, THERE IS SOME MINOR BODY WORK THAT WAS DONE WAY BACK ON THE LOWER REAR 1/4 PASSENGER SIDE, BUT FROM LOOKING INSIDE WHEEL WELL AND SPARE TIRE WELL, THE METAL LOOKS STRAIGHT, AND MUST HAVE ONLY BEEN SLIGHT SCRATCH DING TYPE DAMAGE REPAIR. THE CAR WAS REPAINTED ONCE WAY BACK, AND THE PATINA IS NOW SHOWING THREW IN SPOTS AFTER SITTING SINCE THE LATE 60'S. AGAIN, THE OWNER DID NOT RESTORE THE CAR AND DECIDED TO JUST CLEAN AND RE-ASSEMBLE THE CAR.

THE FRONT END HAS A FANTASTIC ORIGINAL GRILL AND THE ENTIRE FRONT END IS SUPER STRAIGHT & CLEAN.

THE ORIGINAL STEEL CHEVROLET 1959 CORRECT NIB STEEL WHEELS ARE THE ONLY REAL RESTORED PARTS, THEY HAVE BEEN PROFESSIONALY BLASTED AND PAINTED, BLACK ON THE BACK SIDE AND BLUE ON THE FRONTS. WHITEWALLS ARE SEARS F-78-14" TIRES BIAS PLYS. OK SHAPE GOOD TREAD, NICE LOOKS, BUT OLD 80's?. THE DOORS ALL OPEN & CLOSE NICE, ALL WINDOWS OPERATE GOOD, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS ORIGINAL, NOT CRACKS OT BULLSEYES!!! THE SIDE GLASS IS ALL ORIGINAL CODED EZ-EYE, BUT FOR THE DRIVERS REAR DOOR AND WING WINDOWS. THE DASH COMPONENTS CANNOT BE TESTED BUT LOOK CLEAN, AS THE MAIN DASH WIRE HARNESS IS IN A BOX. YOU WOULD NEED TO PLUG THIS BACK IN AND REPAIR ANY NEEDED WIRES OR INSTALL A NEW HARNESS. THESE ARE REPRODUCED. DOOR PANELS WERE REINSTALLED TO SHOW CONDITION AND ALSO THE TOP METAL CAPS ARE NICE IF YOUR GETTING NEW DOOR PANELS THE REST OF THE PANEL WERE IT WAS WATER WARPED WAS REMOVED. THE DOOR UNDERSIDES ARE AS NEW FROM FACTORY CLEAN AND ORIGINAL AS SHOWN. HANDLES AND ARM REST ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH ALL SPRINGS AND PLASTIC LINERS IN PLACE.

NOTE: THE REAR POWER WINDOW WORKS WITH A BATTERY WIRED DIRECTLY TO IT, AS THE REAR WINDOW WIRE HARNESS PLUG IS OUTSIDE THE TAILGATE FOR THIS OPERATION ATTACHMENT, BY-PASSING THE MAIN HARNESS PLUG. WINDOW GOES UP AND DOWN NICE. WINDOW MUST BE DOWN TO LOWER THE TAIL GATE.

AGAIN: MOTOR & TRANNY WERE TAKEN OUT AND CAN BE SET BACK IN FOR TRANSPORTATION, NOT HOOKED UP, THEN EASY TO REMOVE IF NEEDED. FRONT END STEERING IS OK, COULUMN IS NICE, TIGHT, BUT NOTE YOU WILL NEED UPPER AND LOWER A-ARMS BUSHINGS! ALSO FRONT END BALL JOINTS WOULD BE MY GUESS.

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WORKS GOOD TO STOP THE CAR!

WAGONS ARE BECOMING STRONG INVESTMENTS, SO PUT IT AWAY, OR RESTORE TO SHOW, OR KEEP AS IS AND HAVE FUN!

PLEASE ASK IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION ON ANYTHING! A NICE ORIGINAL 59 WAGON THAT'S HARD TO FIND, AND IT'S 99% ALL THERE!

Some points of interest to answer some questions people have had:

The '59 has a free and clear Kansas Title signed off and ready, a current bill of sale will be provided with the title, talk to me after the close.

The '59 has original GM key and it fits the side door locks, and the original dash ignition switch fine, Ignition switch turns and feels great in all positions and will lock ingnition. Also fits the rear tail gate lock, to operate power rear window. wont operate glove box lock? its in open position though so its ok to access. thanks

The '59 has had one re-paint way back in the 60's and now has some paint misting touchups over bare surface metal areas for protection during the clean up. This is only to keep the car from surface rusting in other humid areas than Colorado where it is super dry and not needed here. Nothing is being hidden, and there are no thick tar cover-ups. The detailed close-up pictures speak for themselves, PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AD FIRST.

The '59 can sit here for a short time while you arrange your shipping and we will help with loading it on this end. If your including and want to purchase the new 283 engine & tranny, or take the stuck used 283 engine & tranny (free), you have to let us know ASAP on what we are to do for you to set these in place for your transportation. The engines & trannys will not be hooked up, just set in place on the motor mounts. Otherwise the '59 will be delivered as a no-engine & no-tranny car, or delivered as just a roller only, has a good E-Brake!

Thanks

THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

New Takata problem results in recall of 414 GM vehicles

Mon, Oct 19 2015

An airbag-inflator rupture discovered by Takata during testing has resulted in a new recall affecting 414 vehicles from General Motors, including 395 of them in the US. This latest campaign covers 2015 model-year examples of the Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Camaro, Equinox, Malibu, and GMC Terrain. There are no reported breaks in any of these vehicles on the road, and the company estimates only one percent of them actually have the faulty parts. According to documents submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), one side-airbag inflator failed a cold test at -40 Fahrenheit "releasing high pressure gas and propelling the separated components apart." The supplier told GM about the failure the next day. In these vehicles, the safety device might not only burst but the bag could inflate incorrectly, as well. GM and Takata say that a cause is not yet known, but they are "conducting an investigation." GM will begin notifying affected owners via overnight mail on Oct. 19. Dealers will replace the side airbag modules on all of the affected vehicles with new components outside of the suspect lot. All of the removed parts will also be collected for further study. Takata's faulty front airbag inflators have resulted in a serious scandal for the supplier. Initial figures indicated 34 million US vehicles are need of repair, though more recent figures have knocked that down to 23.4 million bad parts in 19.2 million automobiles. GM was already among the dozen automakers with models to fix, and some of its pickups were affected, along with the Saab 9-2X and Pontiac Vibe. GM Statement: General Motors is recalling 395 cars and crossovers in the U.S. because one of the front seat side air bags inflators may be defective. In the event of a deployment, the air bag's inflator may rupture and the air bag may not properly inflate. The rupture could cause metal fragments to strike the vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. GM is unaware of any incidents involving vehicles with these components, which were part of a lot in which one inflator failed acceptance testing at the supplier. Dealers will replace the side air bag module or modules in affected vehicles. Including Canada, Mexico and exports, the total population of the recall is 414, GM estimates 1 percent of the recalled vehicles may have the defect.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
