If it looks a little bit “off”, it’s because this picture was originally black and white, and I’ve had it around for a while and I color a little bit on it in photoshop when I get bored. It’s not done, but it’s kinda like a puzzle, you just work on it a little bit at a time. Here’s a link to the original file. I’ve had it for a while, but don’t think I’ve ever shared it. So there ya go.

When they came off the line they were pricey for the times, but imagine if you had one in that good of shape now!?

Those cars sold for around $2,500 and up in 1951. Which would be the same as about $19,800 today.
It’s hard to say what one in perfect shape today would sell for. I saw a link for a convertible one that sold for $45,000! Yikes.
