What if the '58 Edsel's had fins like most of their contemporaries?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

OUTSTANDING Fred, superb work there.  :thumbsup:

I never thought an Edsel could be anything but pretty boring, not any more!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

That is SICK!

Second that. I did not expect that it was possible to pimp the already bombastic Edsel...  :thumbsup:

Even though I somewhat expected an Edsel/AMC Pacer kit bash behind the title.  ;)

Now I know nothing about cars, real or otherwise, but that's some model mate. Well done  :bow:
