Back in 1956, Ford Motor Company realized that there was a void in their selections of mid-size automobiles. In order to correct the problem, Ford instituted plans for an entirely new car division, and an entirely new car. The 1958 Edsel came in two sizes – big and bigger! The “Senior” Series cars are Citation and Corsair models. They were built on the large Mercury-based frame. The “Junior” series cars are Rangers, Pacers and station wagons Bermuda, Villager and Roundup, which were built on the smaller Ford-based frame.
