Did you know that engines for Edels were built in Lima?
Dennis Morrison shared with the Icon this photo of his father, Jack, who Dennis says was either the first or second person hired at the Lima Engine Plant when it opened.
He later became a maintenance foreman and retired from Lima after 30 years of service.
This photo shows Dennis’ father hot testing the 410 Edsel engines. The engines were V-8s. This photo was taken in December 1957.
Dennis also worked at the plant for 40 years, upon graduation from BHS in 1965 until 2006.
