Daily Driver
This Edsel is frequently seen around Longmont, rain or shine. The owner
bought the car at auction here in northern Colorado about 18 months ago, and was told
it came out of an estate of an Edsel collector, but has no documentation. It has
green big E windshield stickers I recognize as EOC made in the '70s. Interior is
partially original and partially an older reupholstery job. Paint is a partial
repaint over old, amateur rust repair. Engine and transmission seem original. The
car does not have any evidence of ever being equipped with Power Steering, which seemed odd
for a Corsair.
