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.
This Edsel has been a lot of fun, and gets a lot of inquiries wherever it goes.
