Nice quarters, nice taste in radio gear: Hallicrafters SX-28 "Super Skyrider" with speaker up near the eaves, and headphones at the ready. Sorry - no ID on location or the pinups.

Correct it is a 1955 Eldorado. Technically in 1955 it was called just an Eldorado. The Biarritz name came into play in 1956 when the hardtop Eldorado Seville was added. Nice pic

Just before I was born My grandparents were in this one. I grew up hearing a story of a Baby being taken out of her mothers arms and landing safely several blocks away but the mother lost her mind as soon as it happened! It was according to my Grandmother her next door neighbor this happened to

I did not know that.

I thought Six Pack was based on a Indian frame, and PP & Vinegar was based on a Harley frame.
