[Leica] IMG: My dad and his jalopy, 1951

[pklein at threshinc.com (Peter Klein)]

 From Sept. 1951. My Dad, laughing as he empties sand from his shoes 
after a beach walk. Photo by my Mom, taken during their honeymoon, 
probably on Cape Cod, MA. He is sitting on his infamous green Chrysler, 
which eventually died and was abandoned on the Cross-Bronx Expressway.

Jim Shulman, Jim Nichols or any other car buffs, can you tell what year 
the green Chryler is?  I've heard 1947, but I don't know for sure.  Here 
are a couple of other pictures of it:

You can tell who was the photographer in the family by which pictures 
are sharper.  :-)  Note that the film is original Kodachrome, ASA 10.  
Ten. 1/50 second at f/6.3 in bright sunshine, longer if you wanted DOF.
