Hi Paul, This car was on the cover and featured with a Rex Burnettt cutaway
drawing in the December 1949 issue of Hot Rod. A full year before I was born.
The late Mark Dees owned it at one time, I'm sure it is in someones collection
today. I'll try to scan the article and send it to you. Years ago I got a
stack of pre 1952 Hot Rod Magazines and two years worth of SCTA newsletters
from
a very unlikely source, a local owner of a 1926 Rolls-Royce. It is raining
here too! Merry Christmas! Bob in connecticut
