In January 2013 Morgan Milstead was looking for this 1959 Ford Thunderbird. It is a Sea Reef Green hardtop, originally a 430 car. This was his first car and it was sold many years ago. It was last spotted in the Phoenix area in 2011. UPDATE May 2014, Rich Stevenson notified the Registry that he owns this Thunderbird. He says: I recently purchased a 1959 Ford Thunderbird from a person in Harrisburg, South Dakota. The data plate specifies a 2 door hardtop with a 430 engine and a cruise-o-matic transmission but the original engine and transmission appear to have been changed out for another engine and transmission. It has one original bucket seat on the passenger side but the driver side bucket seat is for another vehicle. It does not have a drive train. It will require a lot of work but my plan is to restore it to as much of the original vehicle as is possible.
