Struck a cruel blow shortly before his eightieth birthday by the death of his only son, Edsel Ford, on May 26, 1943, Mr. Ford unfalteringly returned to the presidency of the Ford Motor Company, which he had yielded to his son twenty-four years previously.
Marketing research and development for the new intermediate line had begun in 1955 under the code name E car, which stood for experimental car.. Ford Motor Company eventually decided on the name Edsel, in honor of Edsel B. Ford, son of the company's founder, Henry Ford (despite objections from Henry Ford II).otal Edsel sales were approximately 116,000, less than half the company's projected break-even point. The company lost $350 million, or the equivalent of $2,800,000,000 in 2015 dollars, on the venture. Only 118,287 Edsels were built, including 7,440 produced in Ontario, Canada.
