For '59 we have that information.  Check
http://www.imperialclub.com/Yr/1959/59Pocket/index.htm
 and you will find all the standard items and what the options cost by
model.

I ran an inflation calculator on this some time ago and was amazed at what
some of those options cost back then.
Dual AC was $777.75 which equals $4967.84 in 2005 dollars
A radio was $168.80 which equals $1078.20 in 2005 dollars
etc.  etc.  etc.

Amazing how much technology cost back then.
