back to the Cote D'Azur,with lots of the Docs favourite cars A Panhard tailing a Renault Floride,a Simca Versailles behind the Plymouth.On the other carriageway a Ford Vedette(49-51 Mercury) and a red white Simca Vedette.In the Foreground a '56 or '57 Lincoln convertible,a couple of Florides and the only German car worth mentioning an Opel Rekord P2 coupe.


Before this shot the Simca Vedette was parked in front of the Plymouth and the red Lincoln was a white 1957 Lincoln Premiere convertible.

My grandma had a '60 Plymouth the same color as the one in 0fldealer.jpg. I think I see the outline of a back door. Her's was a 4DS as well.

The black `61 Fury in the next picture, 0fldealer3.jpg, is a stunner. I don't recall seeing chrome plated tail light housings before. There were never a lot of these in the area that I lived for some reason. Most of the `61's that I recall were old by the time I saw them. I remember at least two that had their tail lights tied on with coat hangers, having rotted loose from the rear quarters.

The rear quarter panel passenger side lower moulding is missing. The movie is Vertigo, with Kim Novak. As many times as I've seen this movie and watched Jimmy drive the DeSoto, I never noticed the missing piece.

====================================================================

On 56 DeSotos, the trim dives down to the rocker just fore the rear wheel. Jimmy and the door
are blocking your vision of this. While I cannot "prove" it is NOT missing, I am guessing it is just
obscured in this shot.

The car is missing the color sweep option, rear antennas, and the factory A/C scoops, amongst
other things, if we really want to dig into what isn't there !

I spy a fine '57 Plymouth at 1:10, another at 1:54, a few other FLs at 2:32 and 4:20, and the streetcar chases a '55 Plymouth
at 5:56.
A neat color look at a time gone by.
