By looks of that photo you have got something better than a 59. you should post the chassis number so someone can check it

that so called " 59 " you have is no good.
that one in the pic doesn't appear to have any overhang over the front windscreens.
I bet it doesn't even have an opening rear hatch.
give it to me, I'll fix you up with a '56. 😉

Um 59. I think not. Looks like a barndoor to me. Anything other than a resto would be sacrilige. Plus you would potentially devalue a very valuable car. And no I am not a purist but that is just too good for anything other than a resto. No bigger motors or anything. Got any more pics of the back etc?

And one last thing. Can I buy it of ya?:thumb

I stand corrected. That fron twindow does have some over hang. Can't see it in the first pics. Does it have semaphore? How many lid at the back. One big one or one on the engine and one above.

Still it look early. I would restore.
