Later Roger is seen driving the car with the roof ripped off. The car is a 1939 Plymouth Coupe. The stainless steel trim on the side indicates it’s a Deluxe as it extends the full length of the car and terminates near the back of the trunk lid where as the lesser equipped Road King, which was virtually identical, terminated on the engine side panel just before the door. I can also tell it’s a P8 because at 1:09:37 Eddie shifts the column shifter into gear to follow Jessica into the Toontown tunnel. The main difference between the P8 and the P7 was the P8 was a column shift while the P7 was a floor shift.
