Notes:
This Edsel spent a lot of years in a barn in Ubly, Michigan prior to my purchase in Sept 2005.  Prior to Ubly, it came from the state of Iowa (and still has an Iowa Community College Decal in the corner of the windshield).  This Edsel has been restored back to original with one re-paint of original Frost White over Frost White with Copper Scallops in summer of 2006.

It has been to the Frankenmuth, Michigan ClassicAutoFestival for 4 consecutive years.  Several times 2006/07/08 at the Woodward Avenue Dream Cruise.  In July 2007 it made it's way back to Dearborn for the Edsel 50th Anniversary celebration.  (Other Edsel owners were awed by the back-up light delete plates, as it was the only one there without back-up lights. Aprox. 200 Edsels attended).

In September 2009 it was selected to be a 2010 Calendar Car Winner at the Michigan Antique Days Festival, (Midland Michigan Fair Grounds), and can be viewed at miantiquefestival.com - scroll down to click on Calendar Photos 2010.
This Edsel has been a lot of fun, and gets a lot of inquiries wherever it goes.
