Vehicle Description

1959 Edsel Corsair convertible. 1959 Edsel Corsair Convertible: The Pinnacle of Refinement Often hailed as the most "refined" year for the marque, 1959 saw Ford elegantly temper the polarizing aesthetics of the Edsel's 1958 debut. This "Snow White" example represents the brand's top-tier trim, offering a sophisticated blend of mid-century flair and mechanical durability. Mechanical & Driveline * The 332 V8 Powerplant: A stalwart of the FE-series, this engine is prized for its longevity. While the block is substantial by modern standards, its architecture shares high parts-interchangeability with the more common 352 and 390 variants. This ensures that maintaining this "orphan" marque is surprisingly straightforward. * Mile-O-Matic Transmission: This two-speed automatic--a rebranded Ford-O-Matic--is engineered for effortless cruising. While the shift intervals may feel extended compared to modern gearboxes, smooth engagement is the hallmark of a healthy unit. * Enhanced Braking: The inclusion of power brakes significantly elevates the driving experience. Prospective owners should verify if the system utilizes a period-correct vacuum booster or has been updated to a modern dual-reservoir master cylinder for increased safety. Body & Interior * Exclusivity Under the Sun: Production of the Corsair convertible was remarkably limited, with only approximately 1,300 units produced in 1959. With the power top in verified working order, attention should be paid to the hydraulic cylinders and lines; ensuring these remain dry is key to avoiding costly seal replacements. * The "Americana" Aesthetic: The Turquoise and White interior offers a quintessential 1950s color palette. Given the age of the restoration, the brightwork is of paramount importance. The massive chrome bumpers and iconic vertical grille are the Edsel's signature; their condition is vital, as high-quality re-chroming for these oversized components is a significant investment. Value & Collectibility As the flagship model for 1959, the Corsair Convertible occupies the highest rung of the Edsel value hierarchy. Finished in striking Snow White with classic wide whitewall tires, this example possesses the "parade-ready" charisma that remains highly coveted by serious collectors of post-war Americana. Power Brakes Aluminum Radiator. $35500. Terry 952-451-2104
