Expert Posts: 2932 Location: Lemoore CA | The more 59 Dodges I look at the more I see that seem to have the 2 speed transmission. I was wondering if anyone knows the production numbers for 59 Dodges built with the tourkflite verses the powerflite. | ||

Board Moderator & Exner Expert 10K+ Location: .Norfolk..Mafia.. ,England UK | SNAP... Most i have seen Advertised have been Powerflite,,,, It seems the Torqueflite were only ever fitted to the Higher Models, Lancer and Royal... I wonder how much the Option of Transmission would have been in it,s day | ||

Expert Posts: 2932 Location: Lemoore CA | It's funny, The 59 Coronet 2 door hardtop I have, is fairly fancy, it isn't completely optioned out or anything like that, but it is pretty nice. It has the two speed transmission. The four door sedan I had was a lower line model. It had rubber floor mats and radio delete, and was originally a one color car I am pretty sure, and it had the 3 speed. Strange combination. | ||

Expert Posts: 1506 Location: Colo Spgs | Hola If one would have gotten a car from the 1959 Imperial Division ( http://imperialclub.org/Yr/1959/index.htm ) , the Power-flite was not listed and the torque-flite was an Standard no cost item. Rodger & Gabby COS | ||

Expert Posts: 3951 Location: Bama | http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f310/Larry57savoy/MLK.jpg Rough I was going to use the side glasses and back glass for that 58 behind it. Seats too, but if someone felt froggy I would sell the car...Those back glasses are hard to find unless you know something I don't about that. I know you know a hell of a lot about these cars... | ||
