was just reading the first pwner’s wife’s book, where she talks about the car which she remembers as dark green. I am an old time friend of her daughter. The trip across the US and down along the coast before heading back to Washington DC must have been in 1954 or 55, when they moved to Stockholm. Her husband, Carl-Henrik von Platen was a diplomat.

But the build date is strange. It says April 56, up on the table, but that is one year after they left Washington.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
