But the side trim does not match Nash' (Nashes?) from '51 or the years around, at least none that I found. Also the bumper looks strange. More like from a '52 Cadillac with this recessed middle part and the dagmars. Still a bit of a puzzle to me.

The article featured a Los Angeles-area home, built by some inventor, that was designed to help survive after an H-bomb attack: Apparently space was at such a premium, they resorted to this cantelevered "driveway." Can you imagine pulling your car onto it? The house also featured a bomb shelter accesssible only by swimming pool! You can see the whole article here, but do yourself a favor: bypass all the ads and jump directly to page 109: http://books.google.com/books?id=8NsDAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover

You were on the right track 17 years ago, it's a 50-52 Cadillac: https://designyoutrust.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/10-17.jpg https://images.wsj.net/im-164170/?width=700&height=467 I suppose not enough visible for Lateef or anyone else to make a closer assessment?
