That's an early Classis,287 or 327 2nd gen engines.All these cars are past it.Good for giving up parts for others to live.

A friend of mine was just in Phioenix and was at DVAP. He was amazed at the old stuff and rust free too.

This is out of the ordinary, but from 1970-1980, there as a wrecking yard in Baldwin Park,CA right about a half mile east of the present Irwindale 1/8th mile track named Baldwin Auto Wrecking. He had 4-5 Edsels there, and that was when a little collector's interest in Ford's red headed stepchild started. He then began searching and found at least 150 Edsels within about two years. Quite a few of them were convertibles, 2 door hardtops, wagons, and some very rare versions(I said rare-not exactly valuable.)His stash included cars from all three production years, and sooner or later, he sold parts all over the country. He also sold several very nice complete cars. I said earlier that I had a convertible Edsel for about two years and that I sold it to a collector. He was a nice older guy, and a very interesting guy to talk to about nearly anything. He also had Fords,Chevrolet parts, some Plymouths and Dodges,(cash flow), and was there quite a while. The yard is gone now, it's part of an industrial park.Anybody else remember Denis Irving at Baldwin Auto Wrecking in the '60's and '70's?('>')
