CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
---|---|
This 1958 Edsel Pacer convertible went through a frame-on restoration just over ten years ago. It is painted in the correct factory colors of Jonquil Yellow and Jet Black. The power convertible top is also black. The interior was restored to factory original colors of black and white. The Pacer features the E-400 Edsel engine (361 c.i.), topped by a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, together putting out 303 hp. The transmission is the famous Edsel Tele-touch push button three speed automatic, backed with a 2.91 rear end. It has power steering and manual brakes. This Edsel has a build date of September 10, 1957, from the San Jose, CA factory. The engine has a build date of August 15, 1957. I have owned the Pacer for ten years. Over that time, I have continued to make improvements to the car. It has a strong motor that starts easily. It runs down the road very nicely; and the car as a whole drives very well. Interstate speeds are not a problem. We regularly put just over 2,000 miles per year on it. The dash features a compass, clock and AM radio (although these are not currently working). Since we like to drive our cars, there are some scratches and gravel pits that have been picked up over the years. Prior to my ownership, the car was believed to reside in the dry climate of Idaho. In our Nebraska winters, it is stored in a clean, dry garage; where I've been able to tinker on it as needed. The Edsel debuted in 1958. The Pacer is considered to be one of two models in the "small series", as they were built on the Ford Fairlane frame. However, it has more options and finish than the lower Ranger model. There were only 1,876 Pacer convertibles built, making such cars relatively rare.I would be happy to answer any questions or provide any addtional photos that you might like. Shipping will be the buyer's responsibility. However, I can store the car for a reasonable period of time, if that is a concern. |
