58L-Y8 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I sure would love to know who the coachbuilder was of this Panhard. And a full view of the car would be great too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the bright plated metal brackets above and behind the door window look like folding top brackets to me. I have always had a fondness for the sport coupe models of that era. My first real running car was a 1929 Reo Flying Cloud Master "semi-sport coupe" with the solid soft top down to the belt line and landau irons. One of my longtime best friends at that time had a 1931 model A Ford sport coupe with a fixed soft top very much like your Studebaker! I always enjoy seeing pictures of your Studebaker. Took it out yesterday and did about 120 miles. April 25 is ANZAC Day, our equivalent of Memorial Day and there was a run around a rural area about an hour away from me, as a fund raiser for the local RSA (Returned Servicemen's Association). A nice sunny autumn day and coinciding with a day off work. About 40 cars, the two oldest a 1900 Wolseley and a 1905 Alldays and Onions. Must get my son to put the hubcaps back on. Wheels have to come off to do it. He was having difficulty getting the steering just right and found the front axle bent. Swapped it out for the one of my spare-parts car which had had brake work not too many years ago so a simple swap. The Wolseley ahs been with the same family since 1946 when it was dragged out of a shed and got running for their local centennial parade in 1948. The guy driving in this photo is the second generation to drive it and nowadays his grandson often drives it. Single cylinder 4 1/2" x 5" (about 80 cid), speed about 25 mph. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.J.: Chrysler prototyped one two door brougham and one 5-passenger convertible with the quarter windows on the C-38 121.5" wb, 6-cylinder Windsor chassis, but no roadster like the rendering which it and the brougham are actually included on an early two-page color advertisement. Seven of the 127.5" wb 8-cylinder New Yorker chassis were fitted with hardtop roofs. The one survivor was assigned to David Wallace (President of the Chrysler Division), appeared at Hershey 1999. My source is the book: Chrysler's Wonderful Woodie - The Town and Country 1941-1950 by Don Narus. Steve 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldcarfudd Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 As a retired actuary, I'm drawn to the idea that 30 bucks a week was once something to advertise. Now it won't buy two large pizzas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt G Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Al that Frazer body style - I have only seen one, a pale yellow one that always showed up here at events on long island 45+ years ago. I think ( foggy memory on this) it was owned by someone on the south shore . Can't recall name nor what town he lived in. I thought it was neat too. nice size as well . Good proportions. Current research looking at period material , images, photographs is on pre WWII era Lincolns. Yes, it will be worked into a story. Will take some effort as it will encompass the material and cars that were sold new in Europe as well as the USA. - there were some absolutely magnificent color sales catalogs , huge in size that were developed and printed in Europe on Lincoln. Nothing like it found here in the USA as to that style and level of the printers craft. I have way to much material of the pre war era that can all be worked into concise stories , all it takes is time to make it a "good read" and have lots of eye candy to view. This thread proves beyond a doubt that people like to look at images and pictures. Walt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
