A 60 flower car is more rare than a 59 Hearse or Ambulance. IMHO it would be destroying 2 great cars to make one crappy clone. I would buy a flower car for $1750 and be happy with a 60. And then restore it to original. First you'd have to locate all the 59 parts to make the switch, and trust me 59 parts aren't cheap, I know, I own one. Then all the cutting, chopping and bodywork to get them to fit would cost and arm & a leg. Then, even if it looks good enough to pass for a 59, the title will still say it's a 60. So it would never sell for what a 60 or a real 59 would sell for to anyone with an above average education. But it would be your choice and your car. If you need a 59 to savenge parts from, send me cash and I'll send my 59 to you.
