Probably will be rotting outside for years to come at that price. Too bad the owner wouldn't face facts and lower the price to make it attractive to somebody. With the cost of restoration on a car like this, nobody will want to buy in at $14,000, so the car will likely not ever be saved.

Makes me think..the only thing holding the body together is the closed doors!! Wonder what the frame looks like or lack there of? What a shame to be that neglected and still want over the top $$$ for it.
As much as i LOVE this 59, the money involved in getting it right................ well you better keep it and never sell it. There is no way to recoup your investment when that kind of money is spent. Please do not get me wrong, this car should be restored by some one with really deep pockets that plans on keeping her and enjoying her.

The listing is gone....Good thing we have the pics posted...
In defense...of the sellers seeming high price......I looked in the registry.....and see only 2 59 'verts listed...and they are both 6 cylinders...(one is in Texas)
I didn't find any production figures...but would guess at less than 1000 total...(v8 and 6 cyl. combined)
58 'verts are commanding near 100K...in restored condition.....and my guess is the 59's will be surpassing that soon....

Agree and disagree. Numbers produced doesn`t necessarily reflect value. Just look at Beaumont/Acadian values compared to numbers produced(in most models)? Just my opinion but 40 -60g to get that body back to orig then all the rest(upholstery,chrome,drive train etc). Has to be a labour of luv and the achievement of bringing her back. Even at 110 don't think you'll make a buck. Like stated deep pockets..and have to luv the car! Wish I had deeper pockets.....luv the car!!!!!
