HI: I have a 59 Plymouth Sport Fury iceburg white 318 ENG. std. w/OD- blue interior. I purchased new in Oct. 1959 at ripe old age of 21. I drove it 124000 +mi. and parked it in an old barn of my Dads in 1970. ( My Dad was first a mechanic 1939 and then a service manger in 1952 for a Chrysler Plymouth Dealer) In 1987 I restored it body off frame. I did all mechanical work . In 1989 it won first junior in HERSHEY AND SEINOR IN 1991. I have driven it more then 17000 miles since to more shows then I can count. (by the way I courted my wife in it and my daughter was born in it in 1964 and we took her to the church when she was married. RLB.

Welcome aboard Dick! Have any pix you can post? And, do you mean to say that your daughter was physically born in the car?! It must be something about '59 Plymouths! The original owner of Faulkner (my Sport Fury) had a similar experience...
