Today should be a national holiday. It was on April 7, 1933 that the United States officially ended Prohibition, the law prohibiting the manufacture, transport, sales and consumption of alcohol. Before you start popping corks in celebration however, take a gander at the image above and let us know what you think that is. Make and model, please.

This one is too easy: Graham-Paige “Sharknose”.

I concede that this must be the right car.
Nonetheless I do not understand what part of it I am looking at.-
The camera-person was laying on the ground by the driver’s side front bumper,
shooting up and across….
The bodyman in me shrieks in terror at the thought of repairs…….

Robert is going easy on us this week.

Which means he’ll hammer us next week.

Around the same time, Graham-Paige was also offering the recycled Cord 800-Series, converted to RWD, with new front sheet metal. The last gasp for Graham-Paige:

I find the Hollywood rather well looking though. Visually it really benefits from the original Cord’s low stance.

Making them easier does not make us better. I’m proudest of my BMW I-3 win. But as I have already wasted 2 hours this evening trying to identify a Fiat Charmant by Vignale, thanks for the volley return, instead of a strong serve.
