Here it is 2008 already! And the Old Guy is still running strong. I redid the interior seats back to the original style and found another Edsel with almost brand new looking door panels, but they are original. The engine was removed so I could replace the flywheel. So while it was out of the car, I cleaned it and repainted it along with the firewall. So now he looks like he just came off the showroom.
He is my daily driver in the summer.
And yes I would consider selling him. I have several other older cars (1968 AMC Rebel Station Wagon, 31 Model A, 26 Model T, 40 Merc with suicide doors) and I enjoy them all. They aren't trailer queens, but they do turn a few heads when I'm crusin'.

IT'S AN EDSEL ! ! !

Very nice. I bet you DO turn some heads with that beauty. I have always wanted one, --- maybe someday. I like the red, is the interior red also?

Hey nice Edsel! It looks like it is in real nice condition. You just don't see very many of them at all. My dad has a couple of them in pretty rough shape--one green and one pink, yes pink. I doubt they will ever be as nice as yours, but they are such cool cars with an interesting background. I'd love to see more pictures!

I like the edsel. Come and check mine out. What 6 cylinder are you running? I run a 351C and C6 trans. I have an Air-Ride suspension.

Nothing wrong with Edsels! I will forever believe the Edsel was too far ahead of its time. I'm in the midst of acquiring a '58 Edsel Corsair of my own for restoration. I think I can find a place for it along with my '64 Galaxie. Please check my Galaxie out sometime!
