Nice set of Edsel models. I think I am in a minority, but I like the looks of the 1958 Edsel.

Piece of trivia.   Martha Stewart owns Edsel Ford's magnificent former home in Maine and apparently she drives a red and white Edsel Roundup station wagon as featured in a Jay Leno You Tube video.

@john-quilter Yep, saw that video a while back....as I recall, Martha had special rocks & mulch brought in  to ensure the long scenic drive through the property remained as it did when the Fords vacationed there.    👍 👍

-- attachment is not available --

Sure here's an Esval, a 1958 Peerless.  This was a Triumph based coupe made only for a few years. Never thought is was as attractive as a Triumph 2000 Italia.
