I stumbled across your site this evening while researching cars for my weekly Old Car Column. I found the images very interesting, but since I’m an old car expert of sorts, can’t let a mistake go uncorrected.
Your picture with caption, “How many surfers can you fit in this Buick 8 door wagon? (Image: http://www.rthimage.com)is incorrect. That wagon is a 1940 LaSalle… the less expensive Cadillac alternative. I tried going to http://www.rthimages.com but the address was not working.
I really enjoyed your site… particularly the old advertising!
Keep up the good work.
Sincerely,
The FIN MAN
