I happened to trip upon this from the legends of Le Mans Dinner last year. Cool video from a great man!

Thanks for sharing that! I never get tired of hearing Edsel speak to his memories of his dad and his trip to LeMans in 1967.

Perhaps the only thing better for those of us not in attendance in 1967, was to be at LeMans in 2016 with Edsel, Bill, Henry III & Ford families, as well as a core group of our Forum members for that epic repeat victory 50 years later.

I'll never forget that. ;-))

When we were hanging out in the Ford suite at Le Mans last year I showed this picture to Edsel's Wife...

I told her I don't know Edsel that well and he's usually very stoic and even keeled in his disposition. I said in this picture I see pure joy and happiness. She said you are so right
