Howza Bruthas- welp - I have decided to part ways with my '59 Edsel Stranger. Not because I can't stand it, but, I want to focus on my '57 F-100 and would like to throw some $$ into the savings to maybe one day find my Edsel wagon. So here's the skinny. It is a runner and a driver. There is a brake line leak I have no found, but, I have never had a brake failure. But, I do add fluid on occasion. The heater core needs to be replaced, I have not done as such, because I drive the car during late spring and summer. So add to that, I have never hooked up the temp control or defrost. Radio is a shell only. Speedometer will need a new cable, I used the app on my phone for MPH. Tires are only a couple of years old, and the front suspension is not worn out. It has been lowered 3" by using Aerostar coil springs and lowering blocks in the rear. It steers really well, and there is no play. Wheels are 15" late 1960's 15" Ford steelies. Gas gauge and temp gauges both work. The radiator is new. All hoses are in great shape and it has new ignition wires and a Pertronix ignition swap. 1 wire GM alternator as well. Transmission is a C6 and shifts well. The engine is a 1973 Ford truck FE 360 engine with an Edelbrock carb and intake manifold. The door panels are all original and have some issues as shown. The seats are out of a 1959 Ford Fairlane. Driver's seat has the worse wear as pictured. Steering wheel is a 1959 Thunderbird with 1958 Edsel center cap. Floors are pretty solid. Included is a carpet kit and new headliner. The original Edsel sill plates are included. The body has rusty rockers and will need lower rear work and rear fender well work too. Paint is rattle can. Satin black and green metallic. Bumpers have some dents and dings, grille is in very good condition. Taillights are 1959 Impala. Dual Impala antennas and Edsel side view mirrors have been added. 20 footer for sure. Look, the rockers and patch kits are available online. Local pick up, please. -Cooler not included- PM me-
