Notes:On cusp of war car production in America was a fairly half hearted affair in 1940. With this the manufacturers relied on 1938 - 39 designs when it came to 1940 and 1941 production runs. You can seen this in the lines of Roadster which are classic art deco in reference. This immaculate example was originally export to Argentina in 1940. It was found by its current owner in 2003 and exported to Auckland where it enjoyed a ground up restoration. The level of finish reflects receipts in excess of $100,000. Having won a number of show events this rare machine has been acknowledge as one the best.
