giddyup Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Saw this sitting in a repair shop a long time ago and it's never moved, so I doubt it's in for renovation. Be interesting to know the history behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I didn't ask, just said a rare beast in Pattaya and would like to know it's history.

elgenon Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I saw a beautiful black Lincoln Continental, forget the year but the best looking classic, coming out of a parking garage on Suk yesterday, Was wondering how well the Yank Tanks can maneuver on Thai roads. Sucks up a lot of gas too. But many people stopped to stare and to see who the people in the car were. If you like attention, buy the Edsel and have it restored.

captnhoy Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 If that Edsel was a station wagon or a convertible it would still have some monetary value. I'm surprised that the grill in the OP has not been requisitioned to enhance someone's tractor. I never quite liked them but I must say the grunting one pictured above does change my mind.

elgordo38 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 My personal opinion for what it is worth it is a 1958 year old for old farts back seat love nest from that era who want to relive some of their romantic fantasies. The windows are all covered with dust so nobody can peek in. If your bones will allow you to attain the love position of way back then your good to good. Maybe the rental fee is $50 an hour similar to a love motel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
