That 'Edsel's front grille reminds me of this SNL commercial:

"The Mercury Mistress"

At least someone only took the time to photo shop those instead of actually building them.

Maybe the first picture, but the second is real.

I think one of the Edsel designers must have had an old horse collar on the shelf...

I am SHOCKED to see that these are real.

We don't have snow days here in South FL to come up with crazy stuff like that.

First one is worse

2nd one is not an HPP unless he got rid of the lacy spokes.

The lacy spokes were on Crown Vics.... I believe those are the right rims for a GM HPP.

I saw Lacy Spokes at a local club...she is one heck of an exotic dancer!

:D

I like to call them 'BBS' mesh style rims...

Those are the "teardrop" wheels from a GM LS

Couldnt you get an LS with duals and not have HPP? Im almost positive you could until ford nixed that option.

If not, maybe he added em?
