This is a reupload of my original Edsel video, which I had to take down and do some amendments to in order to fix some technical issues.

Back to cars for this week, and we take a gander at what is often considered the most famous automotive failure in history. The idea behind the Edsel marque was based on fairly sensible principles, but the execution was something truly special, one that resulted in this machine going down in motoring legend as an abject commercial disaster.
