Does it look like a limo to you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6ecRvVPZK8 part 1 @6:57 just noticed: it reappears at 7:10 for an instant. Are those landau bars? Now I think it's a hearse, what do you think? -- Last edit: 2015-03-07 16:25:13
Commander 57 ◊ 2015-02-11 14:36	It does indeed look slightly clearer in motion and in fact I can see it is a 22nd series model (1948-early 1949) and does appear to be an extend wheelbase version.
