I'm soooo stressed to see the Edsel RS2600 in print. Hope my issue arrives soon!

 

We got up to a cement plant in the wee hours to shoot that. Jon had the mere 400lbs of gear the airline would allow him to hump onboard. The RS was cranky until it warmed up (equipped as a summer beast with no choke blades). No registration plates, so it was a run from Johnny Law on top of the whole circus. I was meeting Bryn for the first time. And thinking, "Right, don't wreck this puppy showing off." (They had told me horror stories of other shoots....)

 

The Capri is irreplaceable. It's a gift from Henry Ford II (the LeMans chairman of Ford!!!) to his son Edsel II (who is on the Board of Ford today). I think Bryn may of made contact, not sure.

 

The pic Simon has teased here, is well, stunning to me. Jon didn't have everything he'd have back in the UK on a domestic shoot. To do this kind of work is artistry.

 

Once more, CF has outdone itself.

 

Bowing low, Norm

I´ve been living in Germany for over twenty years now (shit, getting old! ) up until this year i haven´t really missed not living in England to be honest.

 

With posts like this though my attitude´s changing

 

Wish i could just pop down the newsagents and buy one....Will have to wait until my subscription turns up!!!!

 

Based on the last issues we won´t be disapointed. Keep up the good work and looking forward to the show in June, there could be a bit of a german convoy coming over to the Pod!!!

 

"Frohe Weihnachten" and wish the whole Classic Ford team a successfull 2008
