Fossil Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 This is one of those vehicles that I think would have looked a lot better with running boards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boobtube Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Would have been nice to see a couple pix of the super-charged engine. Seems like a nice deal from the description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the original Cord front fenders, I think the car looked very sharp and avant-garde without the running boards. When you mess up Gordon Buehrig's legendary design with that horrible front end, you might as well put the running boards back on! 😝 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 As somebody that owns one of each, I actually like the Graham front end. The cord has a 5 inch longer nose, so it’s going to look better, but really there’s nothing wrong with the way the Graham is styled. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 (edited) The Graham Hollywood/Hupmobile Skylark frontal styling was done by Briggs designer John Tjaarda, best known for the first Lincoln-Zephyr prototypes. While Norm DeVaux and Hupmobile management wanted the low, fleet looks evocative of the Cord which he got with the bodies, he did not want a copy of its frontal styling to remind buyers of a car recently withdrawn from the market. Cord 810/812: 125" & 132" wb, one car 135" wb Graham Hollywood & Hupmobile Skylark: 115" wb Edited August 25, 2022 by 58L-Y8 added wheelbase comparison (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a great job with the Cord leftovers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
