  9. Must have been quite the car to drive back in the day. I'm still amazed how well built these old cars are. Excellent find, Andy.

  11. These were economy cars before economy cars became popular. Good shot of this sad old car.

  12. I saw a lot of them back then--- There were a lot of Kaiser employees who may have gotten a discount. Henry J. had a very nice estate not far from my childhood home.
