Truly unusual colors.

"Decapotable" simply translates to "convertible" in English, but it sounds like something that the "guillotine" was invented for.

I recall reading that there have been numerous bogus versions of that Pontiac.

I'm so sorry! The picture came up in my search for the Oakland Landau coupe and I just assumed it was correct. I noticed a difference in the roof. It's a beautiful car nevertheless.

Lots of cute ones on Google Images: I just noticed that this photo is reversed. You can tell by the license plate.

I've never been to Hershey or Carlisle, but they both bring folks from all over the country. Isn't there a Carlisle event coming up? maybe someone you know could take a look on your behalf?

I've been pondering this Hupp myself, George, but have decided for various regrettable reasons not to explore the possibility. I have a fondness for the brand. While they are pretty conventional engineering-wise, I always admire their styling. As a resident of sunny Edina, George, I wish you the very best luck with this pursuit. James Sheehan

I can't help but wonder what happened to the brave new space-age dashboards that we all saw in the couple of prior years. This one is almost utilitarian looking.

The way I see it, this car has four things going for it -- It's a lower production car because it's an orphan make, a model from a year of abbreviated war time production, a convertible and lastly it has novelty headlights. None of those things would mean that much to me after I owned it for a couple of months. I think that I would be thinking a lot about what else I could have gotten for that kind of money.

I'm sure that it's just me, but I find that "Tomato" red blinding.

It strikes me as something meant for Australia.

58, Thank you for that. I thought that was the case. I can even remember those moldings coming rolled up in boxes. It's just that it has been a while and I couldn't quite recall. Well, that should be an easy fix, as long as the paint isn't damaged

But are you a gentleman?
