I don't worry about storage because this type of fuel is sold at a huge fuel depot that caters to farmers, truckers, you name it--so I'm sure it's pretty fresh.
Oh, on the subject of Edsels, the mechanic working on my DeSoto had a '58 Edsel Corsair 4-door hardtop in his shop for years...longer than he's had my Desoto. I think it was a total restoration, and the owner sunk close to $200K into it! Here's a pic I found online of it...
It just had crank windows, so yeah, power windows probably were pretty rare, even at that price point. FWIW, the Corsair 4-door hardtop started at $3425, while the Citation started at $3615. I'm not sure what all was standard at that price point though. For a rough comparison, my '57 Firedome started at something like $3,085, but the Torqueflite, power steering, power brakes, radio, and even the heater were options. Probably the whitewalls, tinted windows, and even the little mirror on the visor. I spec'ed it out once, using one of those American Standard catalogs, and it actually MSRP'ed for around $3800.
**edit: I just noticed the Edsel isn't sporting the correct type of whitewall in that pic. I found a few other pics showing wider whitewalls and nicer looking hubcaps, so apparently that wasn't a "totally finished" pic. None of the other pics showed the overall car quite as well, though.

As for the Park Ave, still have it. The brakes went out on it last year, and I de-tagged it and took it off the insurance, and it's sitting down by the garage. I've been thinking about trying to sell it, but don't know if I want to go through the hassle. Might end up just seeing if I can donate it.

When my dad passed, he had two oddball cars I could have probably got for free (family needed the T&C) - an early 90s Dodge 4x4, and a 75-76 Datsun 610 sedan. I kind of wish I had taken the Datsun, as those are insanely rare, and even in unrestored condition, worth more than the ~$100 he paid for it out of an estate in the early 00s. But I had no place to keep it, and never need another mouth to feed.
I've thought if I ever got around to a fintail restoration, I'd probably be in for at least 50K. Don't think I can get into that.
560SEC in silver, nice like most of them
Dark green 67 Mustang coupe, good original looking car, no fender badges but definitely not a 6
And the highlight, a lovely two tone blue 62 Olds 98 6 window 4 door HT, either an immaculate original or mellowed restoration. I think it had a club sticker in a window. Like this, but blue:

When I was a kid, there was a 62 Starfire sitting outside for ages near a warehouse building. It appeared to be in very good condition, but the elements couldn't have been helping it. One day it was gone, I assume someone saved it rather than scrapped it, as it looked too nice for the junkyard - but in the early 90s, there was only so much demand for one of those.

Near my turn off, the cars ahead stopped then kind did a dance around something.
Turns out a dead tree fell across the 2 lanes in the direction I was driving in.
A Civic had hit the tree and the front was pretty smashed in, bumper was off the car.
The driver was on the phone and the airbag did not deploy, so I just drove around like everyone else.
Getting out to clear the tree would have been a big risk.

I kept warning my son when he lived in Columbus around OSU about the cross traffic and to watch out for the runners. If I have an accident, I'm taking photos of license plates for wittnesses if I'm still mobile. Maybe even the VIN plates.

Sorry to hear about the accident, hopefully your daughter has a mild concussion.
Maybe some local business has a security camera.
I think I will do OK in insurance, other than deductible, as I shop 'hard' and I paid notably under-market (around here anyway) for the car.
