    There's nothing more beautiful than when wood is used on a car and because of that this car is gorgeous!

    This model is as close as you can get to a rolling work of art. Absolutely amazing! One could spend days viewing all the minute details. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again; even the details have details. Someone just stated that this car was ahead of its time, and how true that is! Thanks Lou, Claude, and the assistant for a beautiful presentation!!

    There is craftsmanship on wheels. I love all the attention to detail down to the smallest pieces. The highlander interior was an option and was available on all Chryslers.

    Chrysler had a lot of features on this car early that other car companies would not use for many years.

    Wonderful! There was one in my neighborhood when I was a kid. They would park it on the street.(early 50s)

    Woodies never get old. Notice how all the flat head screws are perfectly aligned...

    Oh WOW! Who would've have thought that this car would become a 'PRECIOUS GEM' of the 21st century. This is such an IMMACULATE, FLAWLESS automobile of yesterday.

    This is the kind of car I can see myself taking for a cruise on a mild Autumn day. What a beautiful car!

    Hi, Lou! This has to be one of the most perfect examples from an era of a long-lost craft. It's absolutely exquisite with the Scotch plaid interior and all the original woodwork. The Town & Country name went on to grace some of the most luxurious station wagons, and later minivans, in the industry. (It was a wagon in 1941 and 1942 and would be again starting in 1950.) And look how long it took the rest of the industry to see what smart ideas the dash-controlled gas cap opener and the center stop light at the rear were. The feds began requiring the stop lights with the 1986 model year.

    WOW!! These cars weren't built, they were "sculpted".

    What a STUNNING! Interior and dashboard, INCREDIBLE! restored engine, AMAZING sound of engine, got goosebumps. I have no other words to express. Before I am not a fan of 40s and 50s automobiles, yet this is MAGNIFICENT Lou. I really appreciate for showing us this VALUABLE, ONE OF A KIND & UNIQUE Vehicle with an OUTSTANDING Craftmanship.
