Congratulations Frank.

Thanks for the additional info Frank. Have a question though,
Isn't the Edsel retractible originally pictured, a 58? Yet the Hemming's add lists it as a 59.

Actually, I think it's a '57 Ford dressed as a '58 Edsel.

WOW - I'm shocked - Never knew Edsel had made a retractable hard top - Thanks for the post !!!

Ron, Edsel didn't.

In Ottawa Ontario, quite a few years ago........
there was a beautifully done '58 Edsel "sedan delivery" which an enterprising restorer had made from a '57 or '58 Ford Courier. The fenders and hood line up perfectly with the coresponding Ford and the trim from the Edsel was added to make the project look authentic.
I have no idea what eventually happened to it since I haven't seen it for many many years.

What about that Marquis de Sota on the second site?
