talk about a distinctive design feature! How about the grill and whole front end? Another strong Art Deco influence. Interesting because the only info I can find on the Convertible sedan all goes back to this car and the Sotheby's sale. Heres a couple of variations on the theme from a classic car facebook site.

There are a couple of videos on a barn find sedan and town car which maybe of interest.

Thanks Tony. The $90K was the auction price back in 1989. Today it could bring upwards of $400k at auction.
