1960 Edsel.....
« on: June 27, 2022, 11:07:39 AM »
Was taking a photo this morning, in my coffee village, of this Edsel when the owner came out across the street and hollered, "$5 for a photo!"
I paused, and said "Sorry, but I can't take any less than eight dollars!"

Dino asked what we were talking about....he thought that was hilarious...not so sure about the owner.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

I was going to ask him if it had been lowered...or if it was just sinking into Mother Earth?

Before the owner appeared, and before I took the 1st pics, I looked to see if someone was living in it......which wouldn't be that unusual around here....

Damn that's fugly!  Never seen the attraction to that type of styling, but then here in the UK we were accustomed to swoopier lines, think Morgan or Austin Healey.  That said, one of my favourite toy cars as a kid was a Chevrolet Impala!  OK, I'm inconsistent.
