History Edsel's...

I'm really enjoying this thread. Never thought the Edsel was ugly at all. However these pics show how with a little tweaking a rodder/customizer can really make anything look better!

 

Here is one I got a shot of at Moonshine Fest

 

This 1959 Studebaker Villager Station Wagon
has a history involving a family and Kansas
and The McPherson College …





A great story told by one of the brothers
on my YouTube channel …

It’s funny how a wheels up shot will improve the look of any vehicle…

 

Ya know, those old Edsels can look pretty good. There's a 4 door here in town owned by a mortician, but damn it's rusty. He keeps it running and driving though. I see it every once and a while driving around town.

 

Now there’s something you don’t see everyday, a mortician keeping something alive…

 

I like that^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

Well yesterday my Buddy and I were riding around, and I spotted the old Edsel sitting at one of the local bars here in town. I met the guy once, and he was made for the Mortician job. Dude was bred from a different tree than the rest of us.

 

I am not gonna lie, but I'd swap my '57 F100 short wide for a Edsel wagon.

 

Is this photoshopped, AI, or a real car? If it's real there has been a ton of work done to it. It's bad ass!

 

I don't know.

 

@Fat ASS Whitewalls AND @1stGrumpy That is a fellow named Floyd Dutton's ride.

Thank you for that. That's one COOL Edsel.

 

Photoshopped on stance but otherwise pretty correct. Floyd built one of the coolest Edsel wagons I have ever seen and is also a great guy. Car was chopped a couple inches and had all kinds of subtle custom things done to it past that. It is now owned by Dan Shea in Texas.

 

I saw this one at a local Sunday cruise, very clean!

 

here is our old 58 Ranger. Low miles 4 door.
