Price: US $3,995.00

Description:

I bought this '59 Villager 6 passenger wagon from The Edsel King Leroy Walker's son, Jeffrey Walker in North Dakota with plans on restoring it for my wife so she could have her own Edsel. It was in their legendary collection of hundreds of Edsels since the early 80's.I have collected a lot of parts for it but now she actually likes one of my other cars more and would prefer the efforts be focused on that one instead.This '59 Villager is very special, likely to be the only one like it left in existence, equipped with:361 Super Express V8Dual Range 3 speed AutomaticDual ExhaustPower Steering/Power BrakesElectric Wipers (needs replaced, missing when I bought it)*Power Windows**Dial-Temp Factory Air Conditioning**Town & Country signal seeking deluxe radio*Day-night rear view mirrorTowing package
W code engine - 361 cu. in. 4 barrel V8 (largest Edsel engine in '59)Body 71F - Villager 6 Passenger WagonColor ME1 - Jet Stream Blue body with Snow White Trim and RoofTrim 52 - Lt. and Dk. Blue Handcrush Vinyl and Nylon Puff B/ClothDate 20M - Built December 20, 1958 at Louisville Kentucky Assembly PlantTrans 4 - Dual Range 3 speed automaticAxle 5 - 2.91:1 gear ratio
Despite right rear collision damage, the body overall is in good condition with rust only in the rocker panels and a few small spots in the front floors (still has it's original rubber floor mat) I have a full set of 5 correct 14 1959 Edsel wheels that go with it as shown. I have a nice rear bumper core to replace the bent one, I have a rust free spare tailgate with hinges, a whole lot of wagon specific interior parts, very nice unpitted chrome tail light bezels, wagon specific fuel tank, all the trim. Also a NOS set of window vent visors new in box. This car is complete except for wiper motor and AC compressor/condenser. Car came without a radiator but I will provide a good radiator from a parts car. Car has a clear title. Car was last on the road in the late 70's. Between having the car shipped from ND to SC, the cost of the car, and what I have spent on parts, I am starting the listing at less than what I have in it. Car has not ran since the late 70s and needs full restoration and be towed.Buyer has 10 days to pay for the car in full. Car is located near Rock Hill, SC. I can work with the buyer for time to schedule shipping if necessary.
Thanks for looking and please contact me if you have any questions!
