It was a bit of '60s styling weirdness. It served no purpose other than
to mount the spare. The design evoked the diving platforms on period

on a ferry ride last year. It's an Edsel. The question is, can anyone
tell me what the purpose of the very elongated back bumper is?

actually the mounting of tires externally on the body goes way back in
automotive
history, but the trend was over by the sixties. It was still very popular
in the
mid to late 50's however.
