History Car Spotter's Guide to the 1958 to 1960 Edsel

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Bill McGuire, Aug 8, 2013.

  1. Maybe I'm twisted but I like Edsels. Especially the '58 Ranger and Pacer two-doors.

  2. My favorites are the 58 Roundup 2 door station wagon, and the 60 2 door hardtop with the Starliner roof. Both are cool, but quite rare.
     
  3. Two very rare bears -- less than a thousand of each if I'm not mistaken.

    There's a 60' wagon sitting in a salvage yard near Hilsboro, Oh. Complete and waiting for someone to bring it back.
     
  7. Thanks, that's a great reference.

    Somebody needs to save that '60 wagon. Very rare car.
     
  10. Maybe so, but I really like the look, especially the '58. I totally get how people will identify the distinctive styling with failure, but I still like it.
