Rambler.
When I was born my parents had just one car between them-an old 1952 Studebaker, which my father took to work. If my mother had to go somewhere she waited until he came home. When I started school, they started two carpools, which didn't become all that much of a problem until I got to kindergarten. Somehow that was their breaking point for sharing. So, our family took on a new weekend hobby--visiting car dealerships to find a second vehicle to buy. What she wanted was one of those new compacts--specifically a Rambler. But they were popular and selling at list price and above. There was no way my father was paying that. So what she got was a discontinued 1960 Edsel --the total opposite of a compact--because he could get one at dealer cost. I still have "her" Edsel. She never got got that compact. The Rambler she would have wanted would have been the 1960, which would have had tiny fins. But I like the tall fins of the 1958 better. So here is one of the cars she really, really did not get: suburbia's favorite, the front and back view of the 1958 AMC Rambler. (file w104N-ch, #5369757)
