130 HP Club Sedan $2274, fender shields $18, white sidewalls $21
Why do you suppose they illustrated this sedan, driving through mud on a construction site? To imply they were “movin’ on up” to the post-war, affluent side? That people who buy new cars also buy new houses? All I know is I sure do like that kelly green.

You should write ad copy. I bet that is exactly what they meant to portray. It is a nice car and color.

Love those long, sleek lines and all that chrome! What a land-yacht!

Why can’t they make them like that today? I guess it wouldn’t fit in compact parking spaces.

I know! What is their problem? You and I could design a more interesting design over lunch.

I like the kelly green and all the grille- work. It looks like a very cool car and probably would have been out of my parents’ budget. They dated in 1953. Not sure if my Dad owned a car then or not? Mom rode a bus or trolley from Middletown to Cincinnati. 🙂

It makes you wonder if $2200 was big money, yes.
