This is my Edsel Ranger. Work in progress, but this is what I have on it right now:

Air Ride Suspension - all 4 air bags are independently controlled.
Engine & Trans- I run a 4bbl 351C with a C6 transmission.

Very nice ride. Good to see these cars are surviving. I rode in one once a few years back, and it was fantastic. Keep up the good work.

Hey Juan,Your Edsel is coming along nicely!!..I just added tons of pics to my Edsel file!!..I think you would like them!!..Ck it out..its taking longer than expected to complete the car..but it will be worth it in the end!!..YES..the 6cyl does roll along nicely!!..Especially since i rebuilt it fully!!..It doesnt handle too god on turns with the thin tires!!..I have a set of 17" torque thrust chrome wheels with BIG WIDE tires..i tried them on and they improved the steering 110%!!!ill only put them on for certain shows,otherwise i want to keep it looking vintage!!..ck it out!!..EDDIE
