the Village of Durand Illinois acquired an abandoned building full of antiques, car parts, furniture and three 1959 vehicles untouched for 35 years. A 1959 Thunderbird, a 1959 Fairlane 500 Galaxie and a 1959 Ford Club Wagon Ambulance.




they're asking 4k for the Galaxie, which only has 40,800 miles on it, 

the Ambulance only has 39,300 miles, and they want 5k for it

and the T Bird had 94,700 miles and they want 9k for it.

  1. I'm not much on four doors but the Fairlane looks pretty cool and it does have a manual transmission!
