Notes:
This car was sold at the "Lemon Grove" auction in May 2006 to this salvage yard, where
it began to be parted out, despite at least one offer to buy and restore it. The owner
was sucessful in selling the front grille, taillights, E-D-S-E-L letters, and Ranger script
to a west coast collector, however the rest of the car is sitting in a swampy part of the
yard, rusting away. The "B" interior parts are still good, but are starting to fade in
the sun.
