Thread: Can anyone ID this car? Bob included.

Tweet

Here's one. This is one of the last models produced by this company. Can anyone tell me what it is or anything about it? Bob, if you know, don't spoil the fun.

Another view.

Another view. If no one can get it, I'll post the front end pics.

Okay, okay!! Your Uncle Street might get it if his CRS hasn't wiped out his near term memory though.

Bob, if you think you have it, email me and I'll tell you whether you are right.

Here's another view.

I dunno. Hadn't noticed it before. Is it that chrome strip?

Oh, com'on Streets, we learned this when we wuz young bucks. It's called tain't. Tain't fender, tain't hood!

Tracked down the old thread you were refering to. You said the correct answer was a Hupmobile. While what I posted looks like one, it is NOT a Hupmobile. Do you know what it is? As for the pic you posted, I have already wasted enough time and not found it yet. It looks a little like the Chrysler Atlantic or something Ghia or Pinin Farina might have put together. You stumped me on this one. At least my Rambler Gotham Limo got you all.

The other thread was at http://www.clubhotrod.com/t2373.html so no one else will have to search for it.

1941 Graham Hollywood

The Hollywood, and sister model Hupmobile Skylark, were last-ditch efforts by Graham and Hup to survive the highly competitive auto business in the late 1930s. They were rear-drive sedans derived from tooling of what had once been the highly regarded but unsuccessful 1936-37 front-drive Cord 810-812 Beverly.

Here is a cool Street Rodded Hollywood...

Dave got it right, but you all didn't notice something. The interior of the car I posted was straight out of a Cord. The guy that put this car together didn't have a Hollywood around with an interior, so he patterned it after a Cord.

plus something you didn't realize either, The Graham has the same steering wheel and interior as the pic YOU posted also..

Yes, Streets, I know you got it right second. Dave was the first to actually come out and say it in pubic, though. The first person to get it right was BOB. Like always. And I never proported to be an expert on Grahams. I just happened across them while doing a search for who used Bi-Ray headlamp lenses. All I know about the car I posted was what I read in the article they were attached to. I just thought they were obscure enough you all may not be able to recognize one of their cars. I probably should have tried an earlier one. Better luck next time.

Come on now. I made a simple mistake. Sorry. You were the first one with the first posted right answer. Now at least take a guess at my other post.
