Hugh:
     That sounds to me like it's 4toes. a member of the OIC/IML.  Am I
mistaken?
  
   I'd love to get that milage though.  :)

This is a verbatim letter to 'Motor Trend' magazine, September 1957


"OLDER AND WISER"

Dear Sir:

I own a 1938 Chrysler Custom Imperial.  I bought it used four years ago.
Since that time I have averaged about 2200 miles driving a month.  My car
has not needed any repairs other than the usual upkeep.  The car is a good
performer.  I drive it hard and fast but still get about 12 mpg in traffic
and 17.4 mpg on highways.

The car attracts attention wherever it goes. I don't think they "build them
like they used to."

David R. Cchristensen

(Imperialists, it seems never change.  Change 1938 to any year of your
choice and date your version of this letter as of today.  Seem familiar?  I
wonder if Jim Martin, our resident 1939 man, agrees with this letter?)

Hugh
