bdc Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Price? Location? Engine pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchan Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 What's the Edsel connection? Being cryptic about price, location, etc. really doesn't heighten interest if that's the intent. A lot of potential buyers just go on to the next ad, assuming the owner wants a gazillion$. If I was a gazllionaire, I'd be on it, though. It's gorgeous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mark McAlpine Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The real 1934 Edsel Ford Model 40 Speedster (a one-of-a-kind speedster hand-built on a 1934 chassis for Edsel Ford) is currently on display at the Taubman Museum in Roanoke, VA, in its "Drive! Iconic American Cars & Motorcycles" exhibit. We saw it during the ODMA's Fall Tour this past weekend--it's beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
