My god. Still such a magical car. I love everything about him. The soft, generous curves. The running board, the door handles, the large cooler, the small casement window ... so many lovely details. A car with style. A baby when it is rebuilt.

The last pre-war model. Certainly worth the effort. I love these old cars and admire the people who work to keep them alive.

Its all about the lines, the Decco look, the build quality. There are collectors these days that want cars in this condition feeling that to restore them is not right...something is lost when the original patina is gone. Sounds like antique furniture, doesn't it:) Nice job...hope we find lots more during our future travels.

A distinguished vehicle, My brother went through a street rod phase when he was younger, and lowered the roof on a car of this vintage, only to find that he could not sit upright ! While he was still modifying it with a Perspex bubble on top it was in a fire... There's a moral somewhere.
