Keeping in mind that 59 was the least desirable year for the Edsel.
The best year (impossible, or almost so) to have is a '60, while the
original 58s were second. The 58's were almost all custom built on the
Continental assembly line, while there were only a handful of 60's
built at all--created from a mish-mash of parts that they had lying
around!
