Great picture of a real oldie, I noticed three things in the under hood picture. 6volt positive ground and a bright shinny vacuum pump for the windshield wipers which means ran very well going down hill hi hi.


Correct

My father had one of those. It was shiny black and blinding chrome. It was a pretty nice car, but I have no fond memories. Nobody had fun when my old man was driving. He was the original road rager. He was in a rage backing down the driveway. Oh well, enough love for today.

Bench seats, I almost forgot. Straight eight flathead-how long ago. For a car that is 71 years of age, it is in great shape. Wish I was in as good a condition. Thanks for taking and sharing.

It definitely was in mint condition....
He was nice enough to open the door so that I could get shots of the interior and when I saw how pristine it was I was amazed. You couldnt even tell someone had even sat in the driver seat. I did ask how often he drove and he told me about once a week.
