Love the old car ads …

Post by Bwk2000 »

With fantastic luxury features like a “Windows up fresh air system”, a “Heater” and even having it “Delivered complete”, how did they not sell millions of these? 🙂

It's interesting that the L16 is rated at the exact same 96 hp as the R16.

That 510 wagon was very rare in the Midwest,and KC had most models in good numbers as they arrived here from Cal . But then changed more from Houston as cars were being sandblasted going thru the desert.
a tech next to me had one , and they asked him to park it in the body shop lot because used car custs. Became interested in it instead of the used cars the dealership had . I think he said many of the ones were bought up on the west coast
