Someone who needs the convertible top mechanism will pay at least 2K for it. And sell anything they don’t need from it to try and break even

Is the serial number given for a 1951 Special 4-door on eBay.
I am still a little confused.
Thanks, again!!
I had a ‘52 Super convertible. Mine was 16606586. The 1 indicates that it was built in Flint. 6 on yours denotes Atlanta. See below

Took Almendrón for a spin and to a mini car show sponsored by a body shop which happened to be owned by an Argentinian 🇦🇷 fellow who is passionate about cars and meats. He welcomed patrons with a great “Asado” (Argentinian BBQ) thanks DZ Customs!
I love those Santa Maria grills where you can raise and lower the grate. Oops, wrong photo

Is there a difference in the parking lights?
I believe’50-‘52 are all the same

Yes, the ‘52 deck lid is sort of squared off, while the ‘51 is more rounded. As Ben said, the ‘52 has fewer (19) and fatter teeth than the ‘51

Why reinvent the wheel.
"Now Dear, for six months I will drive your Chrysler wagon and you drive the new car. Then we can make a decision."
One of my cars had 148 microprocessors and two network communication buses. But I have learned a whole lot about those digital analog and monologue systems. I think the monologue parts are the ones that talk to me.
Oh, forgot to mention the Buick Enclave we had. OnStar was supposed to be programmed with the prime directive: "To serve and obey. And not issue more than three 90 degree turns in the same direction." Ask my wife about that second one.
Didn’t they buy their cars from Mr. Haney?

Dale, did you ever see the Crosleys that are on display at the Cincinnati airport (which is actually in Kentucky)? We saw them last year https://thenewswheel.com/cincinnatis-crosley-car-a-small-vehicle-that-made-a-big-impact/

Yes, John. Weather has been getting better down here by the day. Salt’s all washed away. Took the Cascada out today for the first time since early December
