Edsel launched its Edsel brand with the 'Ranger' model being the entry level and built on a 118-inch wheelbase. In fact that wheelbase was also shared with the more expensive 'Pacer' and both cares shared bodies with the 118-inch Ford Fairlane. Power came from a 5,916cc ohv 361 V8 which gave 303bhp. For 1958 the Ranger was available as 2 or 4-door sedans, 2 or 4-door hardtops, and the 2-door Roundup station wagon with the 4-door Village station wagon. One option for the low price Ranger was Teletouch Automatic transmission, but this was very troublesome and was dropped for 1959. With only 63,000 Edsels sold in the first year, 1959 Edsels had to make cost savings; the first of these was to reduce the Edsel range to just the Ranger and Corsair lines. The Edsel Ranger now shared the 120-inch body and chassis of the Ford Fairlane and was given restrained styling; engines were also reduced in size for driving economy. The 1960 Edsel production lasted just a single month with all cars being built with 'Ranger trim. There was a convertible along with 2 and 4-door sedans, 2 and 4-door hardtops, and 2 versions of the Villager station wagon. All the bodies were Ford Fairlanes. Approximately 21,000 Edsel Rangers were made.
