P.S. the thing that surprised me about this fine vehicle was the amount of room in the rear seating area, it is huge back there.
    Yeah, a family of refugees could live in the back seat. However, cars of the 30's "wedge" really hard to the front. My frt seats, from a 2010 Cadallic STS, just barely fit, side by side.

    Since the car is a four door I wanted to shave everything and get it as low as conciveable to increase the "cool" factor.

    Thanks Ryan. A friend of mine just bought a 40 Sedan. It's a little rough, but workable.
