WWII Staff Car

I made a US Army Staff Car version of the vintage "Automovil Moderno" Automovil Moderno (vintage)

and have just uploaded it into the Military equipment download section. It's currently awaiting approval.

Enjoy!

Many thanks, Don!

It's a beauty. And it reminded me of the vintage Automovile Moderno discussion, which I have just re-read.

Did you eventually decide that the inspiration was a Graham-Paige, or what?

If so, it is interesting that Wayne Hulsey recently brought images of the successor Kaisers and Frazers to the Forum. 2017 Kaiser Frazer Owners Club National Convention Prescott AZ

Had forgot about that thread. Thanks for mentioning my photos, Don.

For a quick history, the early 47 Frazers and Kaiser were build under contract to KF and have a 'built by Graham-Paige' on the trunk lid. Frazer was president of Graham-Paige and at first it was to be a joint venture. GP was losing money so Frazer sold the operation, except for the Frazer farm equipment (garden tractors), to Kaiser. Eventually he left the KF organization.
