Michigan Rally Committee releases Diamond Anniversary designs to be
available for purchase exclusively on Polo shirts and T-shirts!
In Memoriam:
Jim Popp passed away Decem-ber, 5, 2016 at age 76. Jim and his wife, Carolyn established the "Shrine of the Holy Grill" 501(c)charity to raise money for local children's charities.
Wanda “Fluff” Martin passed away February 5, 2017 at age 67. She is the sister of Joyce Strick-land, Andrew Martin, and Donna Martin, and Jeff Strickland’s aunt. She was a long time mem-ber of the Southeastern Chapter.
Chuck Durphy from Boston, NY passed away February 7, 2017. He was a member of the Western New York Chapter.
Diamond Anniversary logo features a
blue diamond with the upper facets of
the diamond resembling the rotating
speedometer drum found on the 1958
Edsel. An Edsel logo “E” is located on
the lower portion of the diamond
flanked by the commemorative years
“1957” and “2017”. “49th Annual Ral-
ly” and “Southgate Mich.” at the base
complete this clever design by Dennis
Majors and Pete Randel. The rally
logo will be embroidered on the polo
shirt and printed on the front upper
left chest area of the T-shirt.
Back side of the T-shirt
will feature an artistic
rendering of a Citation
convertible parked at
the entrance to the Ed-
sel Division Headquar-
ters Building. It is in-
spired by an iconic fac-
tory photograph widely
distributed to the press
for publication when the
car was introduced on
September 4, 1957.
These shirts are a must
have for any member
whether you can attend
our rally this summer or
not! Order form the
Polo and T-shirt is part
of the Rally Registration
Form found on Page 4
of this issue.

Jack Whipple reports:
Jack Demmer passed away January 31, 2017. He was the co-
owner of Spitler-Demmer Edsel in Wayne Michigan. Many who
attended the 2007 annual rally in Dearborn will remember that
Mr. Demmer spoke to us about his experiences as an Edsel deal-
ership owner one evening under the large tent in the parking lot.
Springing Forward!
With Spring just around the corner, it’s great to see our column for
national and local chapter news on the front page filled once again
with several “Edsel Events” to attend. As a reminder, announce-
ments for these events can also be found on our club’s website.
Many have been fortunate this year to experience one of the mild-
est winters in decades. If you were one of those lucky souls then
perhaps you were able get that Edsel out of hibernation a bit earlier
this year to make ready for our big Diamond Anniversary Rally in
Michigan this summer. Which leads me to say, in all honesty, I
may not be opposed to a reasonable amount of global warming ... I
actually think it saves energy! I have the heating bills to prove it.
This issue contains the first printing of our annual rally registration
form found on pages 4 & 5. As a reminder, the registration fee is
$25 per family if postmarked by June 1 and $30 thereafter. Page 5
presents several optional tours to local areas of interest that the
committee has planned. Many of these outings have a special
group rate negotiated for our club. Hotel reservation information
for the Holiday Inn Southgate is found on page 1.
Springing forward now to next year and our club’s fiftieth anniver-
sary rally; Jim Turner and Rick Galas have been working on our 50
year membership pin design which will be fashioned in black and
gold for those members celebrating fifty years of club membership.
Fifty years … Wow! Where has the time gone?

Part 3: The Edsel Colors and Upholsteries Book for 1960 Article by: Bruce Dean
Above: Fourth page of the book contained illustrations of Ranger four door hardtop
and Villager wagon listing Edsel Color Codes in single and two-tone combinations.
Tabbed fifth page entitled “Body Color Chips” contained paint chips of the fifteen
paint colors available for Edsel in 1960.
In this third of a multipart series we will look at the fourth and fifth pages of the 1960 Edsel
Color and Upholstery Book. On the fourth page illustrations of the Ranger four door hardtop
and the Villager wagon showed both single tone on the upper portion of page and two-tone
on the lower. Due to the thin top design for the 1960 Edsels you have to look real close to
see that the two-tone illustrations have the top colored black. Factory paint codes are listed
with the note that two-tone body and top combinations are reversible and that convertible
tops are available in black and white. The fifth page contained sample paint color chips with
factory paint code letter designations.
Story continued next month.

You & Your Edsel: Frank Chan’s 1958 Edsel Pacer 2 DR HT
from Alexandra, MN. Sold new in Sept 1957 and was parked
for 30 years. Motor and trans were out but after putting new
ones in and new tires he’s enjoying the car now.
Thanks Frank!
