This is one of the butchered Cords, right?

It looks like it has all the rigidity of an over-ripe banana.

No, you’re thinking of the Graham Hollywood.
The “Sharknose” Graham of ‘38 was a seminal design in its own right; although Willys beat it by a year to featuring a “nose-forward” design with backward sweep, it was n’t until two years later that Willys really embraced the idea.

It has a real chassis and a reinforced step-down sill, so it’s probably not horrible. It survived rough road use in Algiers without folding in half, so...

Good to know but it still looks like it is as stiff as a bag of mashed potatoes.

This post hit a raw nerve. My Uncle was forced to sell his factory to cover business debts. My Grahams went along with it. Pour one out for my dreams... sigh. I thought I had more time, but guess I was wrong.
It’s a terrible day for rain.

I’m very sad to hear that. That was always a really interesting dream.
No chance of catching/repurchasing the Grahams or what’s left of them, I’d imagine? Probably sold for scrap?
I know SA has been a mess lately.

Yeah, at this point they were just scrap metal. Cylinder heads, radiators, wiring looms, windows, seats and any chrome bits were all stolen. Such a waste.
