Hey, don't merge them, they're 2 different cars (one of 1948, the other of 1956)

I've seen this car before - neat looking machine - quite modern for 56.

You're right, and I don't remember what went through my mind. Maybe I believed that you wanted to merge it with THIS one, which is the 1948 Claveau.

I've seen this car at the Tampa Bay Automobile Museum here in Florida. Great place -- home to something like the top 10 most interesting cars I've ever seen "in the metal" in my life!
