Interesting, I’ve seen these pics before and never noticed the cowl vent, must have been added when they set this car up at the factory.

These are great pictures, I wonder if there’s any place where they could be found annotated ? I’d guess they are in order here ? So many questions !! Like, started out with wires, changed back to artillery wheels ? Where ? When ? Why ? What did they do with the hood in all those pix that show the car without it ? Did babbitt washers fail in the rear end ? Where ? When ? Did Edsel himself pull wrenches on the car, or did he have “people” for that ? Any road, great pix and fun to look at, thank you for posting this George !!

Never seen these pictures before. Thanks for posting them to the forum.

Those photos are mixed up. The car started with wire wheels, but returned with wood wheels. Draw your own conclusions.
