S4 Ep19: The Ford Edsel - 1958
Manage episode 231741140 series 1401244
It's 1958. It's the US of A, and The Ford Motor Company have just released a car so incredibly fugly not even Frank Sinatra can shift any units.
In what original cast members of Grease are already calling the wela-wela-wela-19th! episode of the CB Wallop podcast join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss The Ford Edsel - the fifties muscle car that was supposed to be greased lightning, but ended up being a gigantic chrome fireplace no one wanted to buy.
Was it because it had a front grille that looked like a lady's part? Yes.. yes maybe it was.
Trigger Warning - Nothing to worry about in this one - it's just chatting about cars - although, full disclosure, we do manage to say the word 'vagina' an impressive twenty-four times. So be ready for that.
