I just loved the Edsel with the "toilet seat" front grill🙃
apparently so did a lot more people 😁
it was by most accounts according to the car shows and history stories was just ahead of its time by too much and just kept buyers away
I would think the horse collar / toilet seat grill did not help
lets not forget the pinto and vega and colt

I was a Maverick man back in the day. Straight 6 cyl. 3 on the tree and very easy to work on. My then girlfriend (later wife) named that car "Maudy". It was a 1970 2 door that was later traded in for a 1973 Chevy Nova 2 dr. She named that one "Nelly" 😎
She was so good at naming cars that I let her name all of our 4 sons.

one of departed uncles who was a major influence on me and drag racing and cars .too many stories RIP Tom
any way he bought a 1970 maverick grabber when they came out it was a bright green with black stripes and a 302 4 speed he added a cam headers and changed the gear ratio he traded in a super nice I think 67 /maybe 68 390 4 speed Fairlane GT ( I wish I had now )
but he also sold me my first car in 1974 total of 800.00 a 1965 ( it may have been a 64 1/4 ) bright red 289 3 speed mustang that came from Arizona some old man and lady had just moved here to Ohio a few houses down from my uncle it was super nice to say the least
it would be a rare car now another sad moment and loss but I took out the front bench seat ( yep factory bench in a mustang ) the A/C put in a 4 speed took out the prefect red interior and replaced it with a all black set with bucket seats from a local wrecking yard ( cost me 100.00 ) added cragars , headers , shackles if you old fellers remember them added big rear l-60-15 tires air shocks then ran the snot out of it .. I miss that car so much so many memories and all my run around buddies from back then have all died ( rip to bunch of misfits like me )
my mom always said there going to have cut Tom ( her brother ) out of a car some day . but he put the car fever and loved to race and could never go fast enough into me so his title of being cut out of a car transferred to me LOL crashed a lot but lucky ( may still happen I have not given up still have two 69 bbc camaros) I run the crap out of .

Good friend I grew up with and he works for me. Last name Horney.
Drag raced a Maverick, fast one to. Announcer would say "it's Horney all the way down the track".
Goodness that was 50 years ago.

Back when I was teaching middle school (and when NASCAR meant real racin'!!) I had a pair of boys who were convinced Fords were near perfection because they would win some races.
One Monday when Ford had won a big race they were yakking about how good those Fords were.
I just shrugged and said, sure they won. A big team of top mechanics worked on them for weeks getting them ready to drive 500 miles and they next week they were back in the garage for a full rebuild. No wonder they run well!
They kinda looked at each other and couldn't argue with my logic😁

I started building small block Chevy's in '58. 20 years ago my son and I built a '71 Camaro with a 406 SBC to race at Raceway Park in Indy. Those days are over now and drive a '15 K1500 but do have a '70 Malibu in my shop. I'll probably never finish it though.

How 'bout this?
And on the seventh day the Lord did walk close to his Thunderbolt, and it came to pass that he popped the hood, to gaze upon the race-prepped 427 he had created, and he saw that it was good. There were 8 venturis upon the aluminum intake, gilded flags upon the aluminum fenders, and this too was good.
So the Lord closed the blessed hood and did drive from the garden of Dearborn, until he came to the house of Chevrolet, where Satan was again lamenting that his camshaft had once again walked through the tin can timing cover.
And the Lord didst ask "Why art thou persisting with such mechanical heresy? Turn thee to the light and see that the oval is blue".
And Satan grunted, for his water pump-on-a-stick didst fall upon him, he was of foul humor, and he knew that weak small blocks and rear-mounted distributors would not cure the ills he had passed onto gullible men.
Seeing this, the Lord didst spin his tires all the way into 4th gear, and lo Satan was enshrouded in a curious blue mist that not being of oil, didst confuse him, and he was unable to see the light through the heavenly cloud of burning rubber and the smell of leaded race fuel.
And so it came to pass that Satan remained loyal to the house of Chevrolet, wasting away whilst his manufacturing facilities churned out engine blocks forged from recycled Corona bottle caps.

You do know that the Lord prefers Plymouths and Hondas, right? It's in the Bible.
"for great is the fury of Jehovah that is kindled against us" -2 Kings 22:13
"When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one accord." -Acts 2:1
