Only in a picture above. Obviously all '59 Diplomats were 4-dr. sedans in
FINland..
But I don't even remember just '59s anywhere outside pictures.. I have seen
'55,
'57, '58, '60 and '61 Diplomats in real live.

I placed some Diplomat pictures on my web site. I just started to build a
whole site
2-3 weeks ago using primarily only Notepad and writing html code.. They are
under
construction and very simple..

When clicking a picture, it will popup to a new window. If you use a Pop-up
Stopper or
other such programs, remember push Shift or Ctrl button when clicking one.

I think list member Daniel Andersson owned one in Sweden. It was originally
2-dr. Ht , but someone had cut out it to a self-made convertible..
