Default Re: 1959 Edsel Corsair Retracrable


Regarding kahuna's comments of his experience as a new driver, the convertible would have the top of the line Citation, as there was no convertibles available in the Corsair series. Both the Citation and Corsair models were built on the long wheelbase. There was also a Pacer Convertible available on the short wheelbase Edsels. The E-475 engine displacing 410 cubic inches was only available on the Citation and Corsair models. The E-400 of 361 cubic inches was used in the smaller Pacer and Ranger models, as well as the station wagons. So the parade car would have been a Citation.
