What the designers of the Edsel were going for was very futuristic!!! Here are some pics I found on the net of the original concepts for the car.
Inspiring . . . but since my project lives an hour away at a buddy's house I'll do my part to spread your word by embedding it in my myspace page...
Thanks for the help. The filter question was actually a few weeks before we actually got it out on the road. Never thought about using the brake...
btt Ok, we got the Edsel out on the road this weekend. Made it about a half mile before the trans felt like it was slipping out of gear. At...
