You are quite fortunate and doing a nice job on it...you were certainly in the right place and time. Congrats Hamber...
Actually this paint job was done back in 93, but thanks. This car was definitely a great find, it runs and drives great. I have rented it for two tv productions so far, it's almost paid for itself.
Unless the Canadians did something different in 1959 the pushbutton shifter was only optional in 1958. A close look at the interior of this one shows a column shift. My nephew is resurrecting a 58 with the Teletouch shifter that was not working correctly and last I heard, he has since gotten the troubles sorted. I really like this color on an Edsel. Good luck with it, ENJOY!
