    Yes, there are two pull out jump seats and one full rear bench. The car also still has the top pictured in the illustration. The deck lid is hinged at the rear and tilts back, allowing the top to be raised forward, attaching to the rear windshield. The driver remains uncovered in the style of earlier town cars.

    Here are a few more photos I've taken of the car (and I'll end with a vintage shot of one of the cars in a parade):

  21. Correct you are Jim! Guess I was so busy with apples, oranges, cantalopes, & melons that I overlooked Southurn, who will likely 'relish' in getting credit from the 'fruits' of his effort...:)

  26. Any savvy Photobucket users here? Why is the new site not letting me upload Bitmap? I could a couple of days ago...

    edit: Seems I get to re-do every one to png, how inconvenient.
