1958 Edsel Ranger

Edsel Ranger (1958)
for sale

Price: US $200.00

Description:

I purchased this vehicle from an Arizona seller back in 2011. Since in my possession this vehicle has been stored in a garage. When it first arrived it was running rough but still started up. It currently is not running. The engine turns over but will not catch. I have not investigated further. Since these pictures were taken I have since replaced the front windshield and the drivers side window so both are in perfect condition. The chrome is in very good shape and the engine appears to be the original E-400 V8. Like many other Edsels, the tele-touch shifting is not working and has been adapted to an automatc floor shift. Surprisingly the body has very little visible rust holes except for around the drivers side headlamp and one in the trunk. It appears the previous owner may have added some patching to individual areas. The headliner is completely gone and the seat covers appear to be covering the original seats that match the door panels. I have not investigated further as to their current condition. The interior carpet is not original and will need to be replaced.
The vehicle comes with a clear Michigan title and yearns to be brought back to its original splendor.
I have a very low reserve on this vehicle and it is being sold in as-is condition.
A $500 Paypal deposit is required with the balance in a cashier's check. When all funds clear the car will be ready to ship.
Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements.

The radio illustrated has since been parted out along with the wiper motor. However, both driver side and passenger side front door panels have been swapped out for original Edsel door panels that are in much better condition w/o any slashes in the material. They are of the original model design and color identical to those pictured.
