so im on the hunt to put another car together i originaly was looking at 50/53 buicks then i thought about another 49/54 chevy then after searching here i started to see some pics of the edsel and now i want one.i found a complete 59 edsel ranger 2 door that the body is near perfect and fully complete all the trim etc but the motor is bad no big deal.if you guys have any pictures put them please put them up so i can get some ideas.also this one has a straight 6 would you rebuild it or put somthing else in there.
Im not sure how far you are willing to travel but this one is in NH. The guy has been trying to sell it since spring and has made several price drops. http://nh.craigslist.org/cto/3140766999.html I have a few parts from a 59 Edsel if you do end up buying one that needs something, and no I dont have a motor, haha
thanks for the link thats only about 4 hrs from me and when i end up with one i will let you no if i need any parts.
so you gonna build a g***er out of it? would be too cool ifn ya did i love 58 edsels someday i hope to own one
no but that would be cool,i want to build a daily driver and somthing my oldlady can drive also,i really like the way the car looks that darrenc put up.i had a 64 coupe deville and miss drivin a cool old car.
My old 58... Roof eventually went HOK candy organic green with mild scallops over this silver flake base. Can't find any good pictures though haha. Lowered 5", shaved, 64 t-bird interior.... And my friends 59... Lowered 4". HOK brandywine candy over silver flake with panels and lace. Otherwise stock...
thanks jalopy kid,thats all im lookin to do lower,cool paint and some white walls,these cars have such a cool look i dont think it takes much.
