    I also wonder why it still has a name of Crain's Auto Service on the hood, from Sergeant Bluff, Iowa? Right smack in the middle of the USA? With a 59 Chevy wagon, and two large grain elevators in the background. Looks like Iowa to me. Must be a picture taken before it traveled east.

    Yes. That was amazing. He gave the car more European proportions. Looked like an SS saloon.

    Here's one I bought from Messerli's Junkyard in Switzerland 8 years ago. It'd last been used in 1958 as a stockcar and was an early (in the 4000s) V8 model.

    Also bought this Topolino which fitted easily into my pickup truck!

    The chassis went back to Switzerland and is now running under a roadster. The body is still waiting to be built into a vintage stock car. The axles went under another 32.
