Big Dave ◊ 2008-03-13 13:30	Looks to be a 1941 Chrysler.
DAF555 ◊ 2008-03-13 14:21	Agreed, and it looks quite small so I guess it´s a Royal
Bill the Engineer ◊ 2017-01-15 00:58	That was my late Dad's 1941 Chrysler C-28 Royal sedan. The car was an original survivor and unrestored. My Dad drove it in all of the Washington, DC, background footage in "Tora, Tora, Tora." My Dad's car is distinctive in that it had rare factory bumper guard extensions that loop below the headlights. The car also appears in "War and Remembrance" again with my late Dad driving. After my Dad passed away in 1992, the family sold the car to another collector.
