1959 Edsel mild custom car...revisited!

[Big Ape]

I have been away for awhile.............mostly due to working on my cars. I wanted to do more on the Edsel, so I added a 360" engine (OK, yes...it is a sbc) and added a 700r4 transmission which matched up nicely with the 3.50 gear in the 9" rear. Then I did some custom exhaust work and added the firethorn red pearl roof and beltline. I am pretty proud of it.

A few more pictures for anyone interested.

If you noticed the difference, I hated the look of the white decal on air cleaner, so I had it remade in gold.

It was such a clean find and I really dig the way went with it. Nice Work, I'd cruise that.
