Notes:
Car is located in Wenatchee Washington
(very dry climate) - has no rust and chrome is in really good condition. This
car was owned by a gentlman here in town that actually had two
Edsels at the time of his death a couple of years ago. Up until that
time the car was driven regularly. Has new muffler and the motor starts
and idles smoothly. Engine is the E-400 and is complete and runs good. Interior
is sunbaked. Headliner has several holes the size of a quarter. Odometer shows
96,000 which is the original mileage. Glass is all good, as far as I can tell the car
is very complete except for the hood ornament. The paint actually comes back pretty
well when you wax it, but it is well worn around each window. The dashboard looks like
it used to have a padded dash, but that is gone. The radio works!
Overall, I would rate it a solid 4 according to the rating guide on this website. It
could be driven as is, or restored easily with a paint job and some upholstery work.
