This Month's Ride of the Month is a 1959 Ford
Skyliner Retractable Hardtop belonging to
Andy Costonguay of Zephyrhills, Florida. It has a
very nice Red and White paint job with a 332 V-8
engine under the hood. The steel roof and rear-deck
panels, are operated by a bevy of servo motors,
relays, screw jacks, assorted cables, springs, and
pivoting arms. The car was considered a "dream car"
for the masses and was so popular in it's day, that
Dwight D. Eisenhower even ordered one for himself
and Mamie to ride around in. The technology
that powered this car in 1959 certainly seemed ahead
of
it's time. Thanks Andy, you have one really unique ride!
