Hi everyone, I am working on a 1959 EDSEL Ranger with a 292 that the thermostat was stuck shut. I replaced it with a 180 standard thermostat. The gauge now reads quite high, but the temperature (with a gun at the thermostat cover) is any where from 180 to 190/195. Previously there was a 160 Degree in it. The gauge seemed to read OK then. So, do I have the wrong gauge? wrong sender? I checked the 6V behind the dash and it is right on 6V powering the gauge. I know the gauge is not original, probably the sender is not original also. Is there some calibration method? thanks! dan

Just wondering what people are using for power steering fluid. ATF? Modern PS fluid? Thanks! dan

I am in San Diego.

wonderful! I am just starting to take the 212 I6 apart. The side water jacket cover is pretty rusted out on the inside, but that is all I have gotten to at this point.

feel free to come back with the price you're thing

Hi that part looks good! I don't even know what to offer? I don't want to be insulting, and low ball you. 75$?

I'm restoring a 46 Super Six, and I'm looking for a glovebox door glass that isn't broken. I have one, but it is shattered. Thanks! dan

Hi All, I have just began working on my 1959 edsel Ranger. I am new to Edsel(s). I am sanding down the entire body to fix holes, and paint it etc. I find that there is no side logo (E D S E L) that goes 1/2 on the door and 1/2 on the front fender. Seems like all the pictures online I see have that. Is mine just special, or are they really missing? Thanks, dan

THis guy is parting out a 59 edsel, I got the hood from him, so I figure he probably has that cable. /dan https://www.ebay.com/itm/1959-EDSEL-TRUNK-LID-421497/132550764177?hash=item1edca42691:g:EeIAAOSwQFJatxOj&vxp=mtr
