Happy birthday. A couple minor corrections, though. Even though the Edsel was produced by Ford Motor Company, it's no more a Ford than a Mercury Marauder or a Lincoln Zephyr. "Edsel" was a seperate brand, not just a model.
Put differently, saying "Ford Edsel" is like saying "General Motors Pontiac".
Secondly, even though the Edsel was introduced in 1957, it was a 1958 model-year vehicle.
September 2nd, 1957: A very significant day for this blogger. I contrast the photo of the 1957 Ford Edsel above to the 2009 Ford Flex below.
Happy birthday?
ReplyDeleteYES! I was born the same year as Shirley Babashoff, Gena Davis, Michelle Pfeiffer, the Sputnik and Denis Leary. :-)
