Hi Jeff, you know you should have checked in the trunk there probably was several jars of Grey Poupon ! [LAUGHS ] Once again this brought back some old memories, back in the day I worked on one of these and if I remember correctly I think it was a 1955 I was thinking at the time it probably should have its own zip code . Thanks for another long forgotten trip down memory lane . As always take care my friend . Larry .

Those rear view mirrors must be a bitch to adjust. Looked like the armrests on the front doors were adjustable.

Wouldn't mind pulling up at work in that.

Beautiful. I think that body style is beautiful but I see how Cadillac ruled the day. A Cadillac of that era had a bigger engine, more features and a nicer interior. I must say, that interior looks pretty basic and the doors sound terrible. That could be helped with some lube but they are definitely a step behind a Cadillac of that era.
I do admit, I think I like that Bentley body style better though. It's so flowing & elegant. That shape has always been my favorite for a luxury car ever since I was a kid.
