OK, I'll nibble at that bait....
Gosh Vito, that post indicated a lack of
knowledge about Post-WWII automotive
engineering. Looks like you were thinking in
terms of the frame-suspension-coachwork formula
that existed before 1939. The 1940 Nash changed
all that.
Or, maybe you are just caught up in busses,
trucks and SUVs.
Yea cats folks, bringing this guy up to date is
going to be a 'too hard' ...someone put him out
of his misery ... or, chase him out of the gene
pool.
