Condition
From the John Staluppi collection. AACA Narional First Prize. One of 76 such cars built late in the run of the Edsel brand. On the last day of Edsel production, in fact. Originally white, then body-off restored in 2005 to top notch standards. Older but still excellent paint and chrome. Even gaps. Very good interior. Very clean underneath. Not done yesterday, but still presents like a much fresher car than it is and there's nothing serious to criticize. Probably the best `60 Ranger convertible in the world, and king at any Edsel gathering.
Market commentary
Reported sold for $110,000 at Mecum Indy in 2018. That was a massive result for a car that was the butt of jokes when new and still isn't all that well respected. And this price is even bigger, but this Edsel is the best of its kind. Collectors will pay a premium for that, but this is a premium that is impossible to justify.
