I got two days ago the first 1949 Crosley prototype and I wanted to share it with you guys.

But seems that there was a technical issue as I couldn't load the images.

Here I'm trying again. Enjoy the photos!

Nice ! Great colors for this fascinating small American car. The station wagon version makes an excellent choice for this 1/43 replica.

These look superb Sergio, but I don't know too much about them.

What is the story with the 2 different front ends?

One has a grill guard with a bigger bumper, and the other has what looks to be fog lights.

Here's a pickup version at the Lane Museum, with the bullet nose.

As a young teacher, I drove a ten-years-old Crosley like this in a high school parade.  It overheated and couldn't finish the route.
