Default Looks like a 40 two door coupe to me!

A while ago, we were in Virginia City MT and came across this rig

Cool trailer. Looks like a person could take a nap in that coupe if the trunk was left open, but they'd miss a lot of nice scenery in that area. It appears to be parked in front of Rank's Drug Store and Mercantile.

That car on the trailer looks like one of the 5/8 scale dwarf cars
that master dwarf car builder, Ernie Adams made...
