    Those cars are truly underappreciated around here. They are absolutely gorgeous, and yours is exceptionally so.

    I always thought the same about the front fender trim, but I'd never seen anyone do it before.

    Is the back bag over leaf, or some kind of trailing arm conversion? Did you have to modify the front A-arms at all? It sits nice, I could see doing something similar with mine if it didn't involve too much cutting for the air ride.

    You hit the nail on the head, bag over leaf and no cutting.

    I've never been a fan of '59 Edsels (especially when compared to '58's and '60's), but your car makes me realize that I lack vision...

    Great job.
