    It was for sale back then in the magazine.... $ 4,000 ! :eek:
    I'll take 10 of them :D

    That magazine article / pictures was probably at the Big Auto Rama Show at the Hartford Armory.

    Not 100% sure but I think he has a son Peter Tytla in East Lyme, CT that has a 3 window coupe.
    Then again - maybe not - maybe is THE Peter Tytla in his 80's.

    East Lyme is close to where I grew up.

    Great looking coupe. The article says it's Cadillac green, so I'm assuming based on the magazine date it looked like this color. Brewster green poly.
