    Back in the day the grill was called the Horse Collar grill.....I always liked the look of a 58 Edsel grill... The 59 grill and front fenders were a flop to me...

    My dad bought a new 1958 Ranchwagon. The Edsel version was a couple hundred more. He said he just couldn't see himself going around with a BIG-O kisser! :D

    Thanks for the update REV, my most favorite wagon of all time!

    Just the name "Bermuda" is cool not to mention the crazy tail lights, beautiful wood, cool colors, chrome for miles!

    THAT is a keeper!

    "oh that wagon!"

    That wagon gave me chills..licked or not...I guess.:slap: Really like the looks of it. Never seen one like it.
    What's the little yellow one out near the street? I like that, too.

    My answer to seeing if things are gonna break is drive it with a thermometer (whatever u want to call it) installed so u can see the temp in cockpit while driving. If it overheats stop, have AAA ready! That way you dont overheat it too much. Killer wagon by the way.
