No show room date given.

It gives PUBLIC PRESENTATION of JAN 6, 1954.

- Why JAN 06, 1954 when the car line was released in SEP/OCT 1953?

Then gives 1955 car line production start of OCT 25, 1954.

The correct answer has to be out there on the net. I will keep an eye peeled.

Sorry about that.
I've been wondering ...

If the release date was JAN 54, did it have something to do with the KOREAN CONFLICT (production delay)?
