Edsel Ranger 1958

Edsel was named after the son of Henry Ford. We're guessing here that he wasn't a particularly popular person. Edsel was not a specific model of car, but a marque created by Ford in the late 1950's. There were various Edsel models, including the Citation, Corsair, Pacer and Ranger (pictured here). However, they were all very similar in their eye-popping repulsiveness, and their ability to make even the most hardened or myopic men cry at considerable distance had an inevitable effect on sales.
