    Cool!
    Here's my car's info:

    Villager, 4-door 6-p*** wagon, Light Aqua
    Buff/straw vinyl,332 Express V8, Mile-o-matic 2-speed transmission, 3.10:1 axle ratio
    Edsel number 5710 manufactured in Louisville, KY on November 5, 1958

    I need to get some fresher pictures. It was liberated from the yard where it spent the last 29 years. It's running now, and I'm going through the brakes. Hope to drive it soon.
