In 1955, GM had just gotten away with this -
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
. Surely 3 years would be enough time for a high-scooped fender line, cheek holes in the fenders, gull shape tail, high position headlights, and a narrow grill to become accepted-yet-cutting-edge, right? The answer was no, but you could forgive Ford for thinking it might be - and nobody else was using it...

The problem with the Edsel was the vagina grille, not the styling

There were other points of awkwardness other than that, and they tried to water down everything across the board with the ‘59.
Exaggerated narrow ovoid or shield shapes weren’t anything new, but they were out of the norm by that point.
It’s valid that the grill on the ‘58 Edsel being a *hole* rather than an outline was a problem and led to a very popular“can’t unsee” effect that didn’t help at all, but fixing that and going to a filled in version and what was already well-tread ground didn’t solve things either -there were deeper problems. Styling issues with the ‘58 start with “vulva”, but don’t end there.

I’m calling it. This was a red herring to bait Ford into doing something stupid.

If so, well done. This thing has a fuckin’ Marvel Comics Skrull chin.
