Ther's a '59 Crown 2dr-ht for sale on ebay
(http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1860016548)
I'm not sure it's a real Crown: look at the interior pic
(passenger side): the front seat hasn't the "dart" die-cast
ornament on the side of the back. And also it seems that the
lower die-cast (+ anodized support) ornament is not here. i think
that only Crown had these seat moldings (at last for '57 and
'58). Ther's a pic (page 87) of the Imperial 55-63 photo archives
which shows a '59 Crown 2dr. Moldings are here ! Surprisingly the
two cars have exactly the same upholstery and the pics were taken
in the same angle !!
Note also that the seller doesn't provide the VIN.
