Due to age and lack of time to devote to this car because of a large family in all parts of the country I am forced to sell my Skyliner.
This is listed on Ebay - item #(273217605076)
This car is on...
I know the rear brake shoes are a different part number on the Skyliner and the rear brake shoes are wider on the Skyliner.
Does anyone know the inside depth of the Skyliner rear brake drum?
I...
I think I have a slight leak in the bellows. This car was off the road for 12 years before I purchased it. I have been working on the brake system for the past two years. I have them that will...
I have a 59 Skyliner with the Kelsey Hayes underdash bellows style brake booster - B9AZ2005A.
Does anyone know if the 1958-1960 Thunderbird brake booster - B9SZ2005A will interchange?
Obviously...
Thanks for your thoughts on the matter. They are very difficult to put on or take off. The tires on the car when I bought it were like new but the car had not been driven in over 12 years so I...
These skirts were on my 59 Skyliner when I purchased it. I have never seen fender skirts that attached in this manner and the brackets certainly look like factory welds. Also they are very...
Thanks for your response. I think we have the problem finally resolved. Last weekend we replaced the steel brake lines from the master cylinder to the wheel cylinders and bled the system and...
I have posted previously regarding the lack of braking power on my 59 Skyliner and continue to have the same problem - very little stopping power.
After replacing the wheel cylinders, the brake...

He has a spot at the Charlotte Auto Fair and always has the plywood cutouts for sale.
I asked him if he...
Does anyone know of a source for a power brake master cylinder?
I have power brakes on my car but it has the master cylinder for manual brakes. I assume the incorrect master cylinder is the cause...
I have a 59 Skyliner that had been off the road for over 12 years when I purchased it last February. Needless to say I have encountered many problems due to the car not being used for such a long...
Attached is a photo I received in response to my post in case anyone else can use it.
I relined the brakes on my 59 Retractable this week and I noticed that the stud on the front body to frame mount has nothing attached and I cannot find any listing for the missing part. I assume it...
I purchased the luggage tub decal from Dennis Carpenter but am not sure exactly where it is supposed to be put as I did not have a decal previously. Can someone help by telling me where the decal...
After talking with Wayne Rollins we found the wiring harness in the right hand side of the trunk area had bare spots on three of the wires. In fact one of them had broken all of the wire except two...
Thanks Dave. I will check. I also received a call from Wayne Rollins. I really appreciate the help from the forum.
I purchased this car earlier this year and the seller told me that he had purchased the car from a private museum in North Carolina. After receiving the car I saw on the title that he had owned it...
Dave - thanks for the reply to my post. I assume that I have to remove the rear trim panels to access the roof erect switch behind the RH door?
I just acquired my 59 Skyliner a few weeks ago. The top worked flawlessly before I got it home. When I try to erect the top I have a problem initially that the top goes about 3/4 of the way up and...
