Pretty car (except the two greens together on the body and the wheels- I've always thought that combination was especially bilious, but it is "correct"). Can't tell exactly from the photo, but is that the Victoria body style? They're rare, and some hot rodder is just salivating to get his hands on it.

Pretty well modernized. Does it have hydraulic brakes? They came with digital turn signals; you put your arm out the window and pointed your digit in the direction you were turning. In addition to the spark advance a hand throttle was also located on the steering column. The choke control and carburetor mixture control is the located just under the fuel tank on the passenger side.

yup, its got hydraulic brakes too 12v conversion also. i really get a kick out of investigating the old school technology that went in to stuff like this. simple technology that still works. also amazing, i have a book on the history of ford tractors, and there were aftermarket kits to convert model t and model a cars into tractors. they were able to pull small plows and disks. neat stuff.

I like that term "old school technology". Todays "high tech" stuff doesn't do a darn thing different than "old tech", except instead of turning the adjustment manually, you just push a button.

I can't imagine what kind of bodywork the 'ol gal would need, she looks better now than she did 76 years ago.
