    Custom 1959 Ford Thunderbird "Watson style"

    Custom 1959 "Larry Watson style" Ford Thunderbird. Originally a "430" car, now has a 4-barrel "352" / Cruise-O-matic trans. Power steering, manual brakes, and dual exhaust. Car is a daily driver, not a show car. Has real NOS chrome reverse wheels from the 1960's on like new 6.70-15" "BFG" bias-ply's. Panel / fade paint job and pinstriping by "Chrisclarkcustoms". Paint has a satin finish and there again is driver quality, not show. With that being said, this car pulls more looks (and phone numbers) than any other car I have ever owned! Car has nice chrome / trim and almost perfect bumpers! Windshield was replaced in 1991 and is perfect. The engine had a valve job done in 1994 and the entire brake system was rebuilt in 2004. The car also has a new headliner and new reproduction white "T-bird" floor mats. The seats were reupholstered in white "tuck & roll" probably 15 years ago and they are showing their age. This car is a great "driver" and cruises down the highway @ 70 mph with no problems. $7,500. Here are a few photos from the "Viva Las Vegas" car show last weekend. More photos to come....
