The Edsel Registry
The on-line Edsel Registry gives you a spot on the web where you can tell the world about your car, ranging from how many awards that it's won to how much the salvage yard gave you for it. Any Edsel in any condition - if it's got an Edsel patent plate, people want to know about it.

Latest Edsel News and Edsel Page Updates
Earlier site attacks prompted the email service to suspend delivery. Yeah, maybe "suspend" isn't strong enough, as everyone who's tried to send mail to admin@edsel.com and received an automated "I give up, sorry" message can attest to. That's finally been corrected, too.
Please resend anything you've tried to deliver in the past.. well, since 2011 Christmas carols started playing on the radio.
Is it time to sell the Edsel.com domain and all its content? Perhaps. Make me an offer. ;)
If you find your offer (or anything you send over) fails to get delivered, please note that the backup mailbox is always "edselweb"(at)comcast.net, without the quotes.
In the meantime, let's get back to updates. The Southlanders Edsel Owners Club announced their new online presence at www.edselowners.com, which serves all of Southern California. The site really shows the club's dedication and excitement, which is good motivation to get all Edsel owners through a cold winter.
Also, the 2012 Edsel Price Guide was compiled and is now online. Unfortunately very little movement in the Edsel market is forecast, as the economic recovery continues.
Come on 2012.. We're counting on you to be a brighter year!
Autumn 2011
Since moving to the new server earlier this year, we've been hit with a number of hacker attacks. Sorry for
the delays. Now that things are looking more secure, it's time to get back to the updates (which now
number in the hundreds of VINs, ads and Edsel submissions of all kinds).
April-May 2011
Behind-the-scenes work continues on Edsel.com, and a few new features should be released shortly.
Edsel owner Eric Anderson wrote in to share an episode of The Car's the Star, a British classic car
television series that focused a 1998 episode on the history of the Edsel. The full episode is
online in parts One and
Two. It features lots
of interviews with both Edsel enthusiasts and key players of the Edsel Division. Must see TV.
March 2011
There are still a couple of pages worth of minor fixes to do after moving links to the 7000+ files
that make up Edsel.com, but it's great to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Deepest thanks go
to Gary Gilmore who offered to host the Edsel Gallery from
2004-2010 since my old site server couldn't handle the volume.
Updates to the site have begun, most notably to the Promo pages,
and if you look under the "Extras" heading at the top of the current page, you'll see a new
Search Edsel.com option. This utility gives you
the power to search the site by keyword, which includes every car in the online
Edsel Registry. Find all recorded Edsels in your
home state, or all the cars that share your color, etc., with a few keystrokes.
I don't know.. I think it's pretty spiffy myself.
