1935 French Delage cabriolet coup'e Does it get more beautiful?

Yes, I know BillM , but this is all I have at my disposal at the moment, assuming I can borrow $297, 000 to buy it.
1935 Pierce Arrow with awesome performance and a rumble seat. Arguably the king of cars. It ran rings around the likes of Duesenberg and Packard with V12 under the hood. .

Interesting how the terminology is different between UK and USA, you call it a 'Rumble seat', here in the UK we call it a 'dickey seat' perhaps not appropriate on this website as probably brings on sort of other connotations !

Fascinating the roots of words, I remember riding in a rumble seat in 1936 at the then age of 3 1/2. It was exciting and a bit scary since the wind bit your face with its wintry blast. US slang for to rumble suggests making out in that rumble seat.

In the 1970s my father decided to chase a dream of operating a volunteer ambulance service. The small fleet of ambulances was comprised of a few Caddys and one or two Pontiacs. I don't believe there were any such things as the big boxy "meat wagons" of today. Despite his efforts, and my grandmother pouring in about $75K to help, he could not compete with the county and the venture failed after a few years.

I have never before seen an Oldsmobile ambulance.

1963 Jaguar XKE Coupe. Note the co

vered headlights, small bumpers, and utterly inadequate side mirrors.
