Hi, guys. This is my '58 Edsel. The first model I built with the encouragement of my husband.
I am sure I picked the Edsel off of the shelf due to all of the pretty shiny chrome work, but working with Bare Metal Foil was very difficult. Many times I thought I was through with a part, then the foil would tear and I had to remove it and start over. My next build will not have as much foil work. (But I still like the kits with the pretty shiny bling. What can I say?)

Don't sell yourself short Annie, that is a very good-looking model that would turn eyes on any contest table. That Edsel is an intimidating car to foil. Hoping to see more of your work, Great job!
