Re: 1933 essex terraplane. John Dillinger's favorite car
supposedly the 33 terraplane had very high HP 94 ratio to its weight. Maybe Dillinger thought this would give him a getaway advantage. He used it only once and it was shot up but he got away and dumpted it. They usually stole the cars for their bank jobs. Looked for 8 cylinder cars.
