Notes:
Submitted by Jim Turner:
This is believed to be one of the "Special Service" Delivery Wagons.  It is rumored to be just 1 of 12 Roundups that were built by Edsel to haul around service trailers and promote the new Edsel.
It was a painted Kelly Green and White and came with all the power options.  The axle code is stamped with an (0).  This wagon appears complete, but will need a full restoration.
