1932 Edsel highboy roadster

I don't know if this has been on the board, but I found pictures on the net. Interesting build!

 

Interesting- but nothing resembles a 1932- just 1959.

 

interesting indeed,, good work done,, but still kinda makes my stomache turn

 

Note to self,... "post this picture on the DON"T board"

 

yikes.

 

are you sure you didn't find the pic in the "ugly customs" thread?

 

It's not something that anyone who hangs out here would want to own, but it does have an ounce of "fun" in it. The designer obviously gave-up about half-way through the project. The color isn't "fun" the front tires need fenders to complete the "theme." The tires and wheels are an after-thought. I declare this to be a tragedy, although it could have been fun.

What's with the 32 in the title? Edsel owned some beautiful cars in 32, but this wasn't one of them

 

Should have left the rear stock

 

that's an answer to a question that should have never been asked.

 

i believe Edsel designed the 32s as Henry wanted to stick with the model As forever.

that edsel roadster is pretty coool!

 

Here's some picyures of it when it was painted. I thought it was pretty cool looking with paint.

 

I dig the shit out of it with paint, wheels need to be a better choice, but thats just cool.

 

Nope, thats a '58 Edsel and might I say looks Titties!!

 

Not even sure Plowboy smokes enough to think up something like THAT ! FUGLY..............

 

Defiantly cool with the paint, cant stand ww's with moon discs but if it was a yellow and white 32 coupe I'd glance at it and keep walking whats wrong with something different?

 

I thought it was a neat car but it could have been made to look a little cooler like this Ed newton sketch....

I would look a lot better if it was a little shorter and lost the wheel wells.

I had a guy tell me that the spacetruck would look a lot better with some s-10 fenders on it though. I suppose it is a matter of taste.

 

Remove the hood and sides and it may look good. Albeit not as good as what Plowboy has created.

Still, it took more skill than I have....

aaaah different, nice work, not sure if it is for me ?

 

I like it a lot better in color. Too bad the firewall forward is a different yellow than the rest of the car

Looks like my 56 truck which doesn't have any matching colors either...
