Francisca a dit…: This is a beaut too, Louis. Although perhaps my size would be more that little red number beside the Packard? I'm so disappointed with car designs in the last decade or so... they all seem to be so generic; can't tell one from another. Even in Europe, where a nice Saab used to be distinguishable from a Benz... now no more... :-( ... it's all gone to mass design. Or mayhaps you know better? Is there a current model that makes you go WoW?; 17 août 2010 15:20
Bibi a dit…: Now I'm confused...do I like today's car or yesterday's more?; 17 août 2010 21:20
LD a dit…: Magnificent styling. Maybe it's not too late. How much would it cost..a mere million? Seems to look quite different from the 1934 sedan I saw.; 18 août 2010 03:40
Small City Scenes a dit…: I love the coupe. Well that year even Ford made a good looking coupe.

Those old cars were so well made and made of steel too--Maybe heavy but they lasted! MB; 18 août 2010 04:40
