Never heard of this manufacturer.

But this car is pretty fast for its days!

The trunk is enough to conceal a body. So, if you mafia and wanted a car that fit enough to conceal a death body of your enemy, you should buy this car. (considering almost all 1930's car doesn't have big trunk except an expensive car)

Is there somebody buried under the cowl? LOL

Holy imps, I'm really no gonna be excited driving a car, which looks like a massive coffin on wheels! Pretty fast container though!
