Default Re: I just ordered one.

You mean my 39 is obsolete now?


Very fashionable ladies in the video. To echo what Ol' Ron said I was at a car show last weekend with my 39. A guy told me his father bought a new 39, a coupe, I think. He said that he drove it 165,000 miles and sold it after the war for more than he paid for it. Sounds good, but I am a bit skeptical of the 165K miles. Who drove a car that long then and in 5 or 6 years during the war when gas and tires were rationed? Still a good story.
