Really neat photo, are there brakes on the front? I have a spot light like that, it has a mirror on the back.

The car has a lot of neat period accessories. Bumpers, 5 lug Firestone demountable wheels, and Hassler shocks along with the front brakes. Looks like he is getting his money's worth from the tires!

Did you count the exploded air bag as one of those accessories?

Also, is it possible that 'his' is actually a her? Kinda looks like the girl in the middle is making change for the two customers.

Click on the update for another view of the same car. Very high quality image from glass negatives. The person's hand print is on the hood.
