I took a side trip into !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on Sunday to check out the place where William Penn landed for the first time in America in 1682. It's a neat little colonial town with some very historic buildings, beautiful river front properties, and a few small cafe's and restaurants. Of all of the historic sites in the mid-Atlantic, I would hazard a guess that it's one of the least appreciated/visited. It's probably the mid-Atlantic's best kept colonial secret.

Idling around town today was (what appears to be) a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ... Neat stuff ! Look at the little details on the hood/trunk ornaments, tail lights, and interior !

That Plymouth's a real find!

I thought the combination of late '30s styling with an old-fashioned phaeton or tourer body was curious so I had a quick Google.

I think it's a '39 P8 four door convertible, of which Plymouth made just 548 (out of 417,528 cars altogether). Don't think you'll see many more today...
