Here are a few interesting photos of a rather rare car back in the day, it’s still around.

And rare it is.  Assuming it is a '33 President,  the Production Figure Book For U.S. Cars by Jerry Heasley shows only 635 "92 President 8's"  and 1,194 "82 President 8's being produced.   Convertible production is usually a small fraction of total production so I would venture a guess that there weren't more than maybe a hundred or so of them.  I have been an astute car watcher since the '30's and have never seen one.

Yes !

 

While the lines, and the wheels surely suggested Bugatti, an elephant mascot might have seemed out of place, given the sleek, smaller nature of this sporty example
