Vehicle Detail

1959 Edsel Corsair 4D Sedan 59,151 Actual Miles (currently titled in Indiana as an actual miles car and previous title was an actual miles car – copy of previous titles provided) 332 CI V8(Has 361 valve cover decals. Previous two owners think this was a factory error. Factory errors were common at Edsel as the cars were built on Ford and Mercury production lines) Ford-O-Matic Auto Trans Power Steering Runs and Drives Well AM Radio and Clock(Radio works - Clock needs Cleaning) Factory Deluxe Wheel Covers Newer Coker Tires This is an excellent running and driving car. It is an older restoration and the paint is not perfect but presents nicely as shown in the pictures. Looks great for cruising and car shows and has the "right look" and two-tone paint scheme to turn heads. Has a few areas that will require attention if you desire. The previous collector put tape on some delaminating paint near the rear window. I've never removed it and it's never been a problem. Bumpers are outstanding and were re-chromed at some point. Interior is very clean and original. Has a split on the driver's seatback which I'm told can be fixed without removing the seat. Has been undercoated - this car came from a dealer owner's collection. It was probably saved (as a four door) because it was in a dealer owner's collection. Drips oil and trans fluid. Just an annoyance. I keep a pan under it as shown in the picture. Can been seen in Knox, Indiana by appointment. Below are the current values as a reference. Remember that this is an extreme low miles example. Car sold as-is where is with no warranty. Please ask questions. I have done my best in good faith to describe this car. 1959 Edsel Values Model C6 C5 C4 C3 C2 C1Corsair 4d Sedan 600 1900-2200 3100-3500 7100-7700 11000-11900 Varies Current prices (in US dollars) are compiled from "The 2016 Collector Car Price Guide", "Old Cars Weekly" as well as actual prices from Edsel owners. Class 1 is a 100-point show car, and prices will not be included because at this level of perfection, each car can fetch an individual amount. Class 2 is a winning show car, in all-around excellent condition. Class 3 is a car that could enter a show, running smoothly with very little evidence of wear. Class 4 is a driver car that runs and drives well but is in need of cosmetic repair. Class 5 is barely running and in need of serious repair - a step up from parts car. On Oct-05-16 at 11:14:21 PDT, seller added the following information: I have had a few questions about the mileage of the vehicle. You will receive the following with the purchase: Copy of Massachusetts title dated 05/23/2008. The mileage is documented as 57,113 and has ACTUAL MILEAGE in bold in the odometer reading "box" on the title. Existing Indiana title dated 05/10/16. The mileage is documented as 058899/ACTUAL. In addition, as pictured, there is the oil change record in the door jamb from 1982 stating that the mileage was 45,454 on 04-20-82. Since 1982 this car has been driven 13,697 or about 403 miles per year. I hope that answers any questions. Thanks for all the bids and the interest.On Oct-06-16 at 13:16:48 PDT, seller added the following information: I just got an email from an eBayer who said that the seat inserts were re-upholstered. I was told that the interior was original so I am posting this information for your review.
